A new report regarding the ongoing scandal surrounding Rep. Matt Gaetz, which so far has involved allegations of involvement in sex trafficking and sex with a minor as well as a counter-accusation by Gaetz alleging that he and his family are being extorted has now gotten even stranger.

According to The New York Times, the Department of Justice probe against Gaetz now also involves verified cash payments Gaetz sent via Cashapp which the women involved claim was in exchange for sex.

As The Hill reports:

The Times reported Thursday that the Department of Justice (DOJ) probe into Gaetz also involves former Seminole County, Fla., tax collector Joel Greenberg, who allegedly met women online on websites for dates in exchange for gifts and travel. Greenberg allegedly introduced the women to Gaetz, people familiar with the matter told the Times.

Messages and interviews indicate Greenberg and Gaetz directed the women to meet them at specific times and locations and laid out the amount of money for which they would be compensated. People familiar with the matter told the Times that the illegal drug ecstasy would at times be consumed.

Receipts on mobile payment apps reviewed by the Times showed money from Gaetz and Greenberg being sent to one of the women, who told friends it was for having sex with both men. A person interviewed by the Times said the men would sometimes use hotel ATMs to pay in cash.

Gaetz did not respond to requests for comment by The Hill on Thursday.

Will Gaetz survive these stunning accusations? Let us know what you think in the comments below.



Comments

    1. being a true republican in congress is part of the reason they are after him an being a big trump supporter is the biggest reason

    2. So do I really like him – He is a true American Patriot – That’s why he is being attacked so ‘viciously’ – Pray for him to rise to Victory!

      1. It is strange DOJ is so prompt in investigating a successful Republican. What has happened about ERIC SWALWELL sleeping with a CHINESE SPY & having a CHINESE INTERN in his office, is the DOJ also sleeping about this national security SCANDAL? Why has FBI been SITTING on HUNTER BIDEN’s Laptop and JOE BIDEN’s threat to UKRAINE – proof in a live video?? has FBI also sleeping about this? Hey DOJ & FBI go back to sleep.

          1. Hunter asked the Chinese government for a little girl. They gave him a 9 year old girl and he raped her – even though she was said to be screaming. Gaetz is single and obviously felt the need to be discreet. Doesn’t bother me one bit.

        1. That’s exactly right! Is this a smoke screen to make us forget about all those things? That’s the liberal demonRats thing to do!!!

        2. Don’t forget the Chinese chauffer spy who drove Feinstein for 20 years or the Pakistani IT folks who stole computers from Democrats in the House and had access to top secret info on computers of at least 20 of them!

        3. As they say: “Birds of the same feathears flucking together!” China will someday rules the world by our HLEP through the hands of the Bidens! We will live to regret it! Their focus is to destroy the USA first! Unify the rest of the world through their gifts to fulfill the needs of those countries! We, the Amerians, we are no longer as united as we were: “ONE NATINONUNDER GOD! INDIVISIBLE, with Liberty and Justice for all!” Are we under “GOD”? We are making ANTI GOD LAWS! 1. Birth Control without following the Guidelines of the Church ~~ Satanism! 2. Abortion = Satanic Human sacrifice! 3. Same Gender sexual union = Satanism. 4. Euthanasia: Satanic Self Sacrifice!

          Hell is a place for Evii Doers! Where GOD is ABSENT there is darkness withoiut end and Mortal Sins of all forms! s Where SATAN is KING, there MORTAL SINS RULE! ! The Light of God never enters HELL! No darkness of any form could enters HEAVEN! ‘Where GOD is, there is no darkness, non at all!”

        4. Swallwell is a scandal involving facts like Hunter Biden’ s laptop facts can be buried,
          Whereas FBI Fabrication like the Russian Collusion fraud…such falsifications have a life of their own …it is after all why the DOJ/FBI set up Gaetz to release his version to Carlson before they finalized their own fabrication to ensure there was no overlap to anything Gaetz already said – making Gaetz look like a complete liar as they tried to do to Donald Trump on Russia.
          At ths juncture after the past 12 years one has to ask – why did the Gaetz family trust the FBI???

      2. Yes! Pray for our be loved USA! Jewdea-Christianity is our ROOT! We are: ” One NATION under GOD! Indivisible! With Liberty and Justice for all!” Let us live up to OUR Pledge! We are UNDER GOD! NOT what is ANTI GOD! What is anti GOD is PRO-SATA! The Anti Life Laws are PRO_SATAN LAWS! Laws that our Legislators have made are pro-SATAN~~ 1. Birth Contro l= Satanism ~~ seeking pleusre along, without the RESPONSIBILITY for the FRUIT of that PLEASURE! 2. Abortion = Saatanaic Human Sacrifice! 3. Sane Gender sexual union = Satanism! 4. Euthanasia = Self Satanic Sacrifice!

    3. Funny, if you demean women and just demand sex at the workplace (i.e. Biden & Cuomo), you can get away with it. But if you pay for it, somehow it is a big crime. Isn’t that supporting a small business?

      1. Liberals have been howling about legalized prostitution for decades. Now, they want to crucify a Republican over allegations of it.

      2. Good one! Ha! He should have just dipped into Congress’s Hush Slush Fund worth millions, thanks to taxpayers. Its especially set up to pay off Congress’s scandals ., mostly sexual in nature.

  1. Well, I’ll wait for the investigation to come to a close before I make up my mind. But hes a 1/2 RINO that wasn’t 100% behind Trump.

      1. Lol Trump had how many votes snd who had to cheat to win?
        The entire world knows except the lost sheep.
        Have election investigators from Montana go down to shit show in Georgia, maybe they can get in on some of the food served in election lines in Georgia lol crooks and liars

    1. Bill I believe he is considered innocent until proven guilty and I think he is being prosecuted for being afire brand! Ps Sewell who slept with a Chinese spy!,,Is not being prosecuted for a much more hanis charge Hum!,

  2. Same DOJ for over 4 years went after Trump with lies! I hope it dims not true and evidence should be put out there!

  3. I am concerned. If he’s guilty, he should resign, but I seem to recall former Senator Ted Stevens (R) Alaska, who was accused of sexual improprieties several years ago. He denied the charges, but lost his seat.

    Then, there was Fox News commentator Bill O’Reilly, who quit (was fired) because of allegations of sexual misconduct. The truth or falsity of that case never came to light, as O’Reilly determined it was cheaper to settle with his accuser, than to go to court.

    The point of it all, is that the Democrats play dirty. They have ab insatiable thirst for power, and will do anything to gain and and keep it. They are not to be trusted.

  4. I don’t believe a word of this. IMHO the DOJ, FBI, CIA etc. are agencies that can no longer be trusted. Also, once again IMHO, the NYT (New York Trash) has proven to be used as a political tool or extension of the demonrat party. It’s my belief that this is a political hit job. Look what they tried to do to Brett Kavanaugh, General Flynn & others that supported President Trump. Remember Russiagate, Mueller etc etc??? I believe that our country is becoming a Marxist nation. It grieves me to even have to entertain such a thought. I don’t believe this about Matt Gaetz………..

  5. If it’s true he is a scum bag. If it’s not true he is being railroaded by the evil left as per their MO…

  6. I believe this is one if the tactics used to eliminate you opponent and unfortunately only one side of the country has the right to doubt the other receiving all the weight of the ” Law” if this is true why the persons familiar doesn’t give the face, how our president in turn said “Come man”

  7. Is time to the people stop to be nayie, if you see the last years the way they eliminate the Republicans with sex scandals, is their style

  8. So is his paying for sex any more wrong than Billy boy Clinton raping or biden my time biden sexually assaulting women and not being tried for it?
    or vice president Kamala sleeping her way into Political office?

    1. Anything to take eyes off the border crisis. They also desperately want to flip Fla the way they flipped Georgia and are trying to flip AZ and TX. Will be interesting to see who there next target is.

  9. Watch how this plays out. This man is in the news because of what they say he did. Cuomo is a a forgotten person now that they got a republican to destroy.

  10. Probably will be just more bullshit from the democrats! Their motto of lie after lie then when not proven, will just disappear like all democrats lies!

  11. when the democrats do wrong nothing never happens to them . investigations are shut down covered up look at swalwell he was have sex with a chinese spy. nuff said

  12. I’m guessing it’s a setup. Look how elaborate it got going after Trump. I think it’s all a hoax. If GOP takes back the House and Senate in 2022, I say we try to impeach every senior Dem: Pelosi; Schumer; Waters; AOC; Omar; Pressley; Tlaib; VP Harris PINO (Prez in name only) Biden; Sanders, to name a few. Then we’ll know just how corrupt they really are. The Dems have made this a “kill or be killed” political war, so I say all bets are off – let’s go after them ALL.

  13. Why is it alright to post stuff that hasn’t even been proven? There is no one that wants lies spread about them! Shame on the Dems!

  14. I do not believe these charges are true. Just trying to discredit him because he fights for the American people and President Trump!!!!!!

  15. Where do they come up with this crap? Rep. MATT GAETZ R-FL, IS GOING ON HIS THIRD TERM, AND THIS IS JUST NOW COMING OUT! THE DOJ UNDER BIDEN IS LIKE THE OBAMA DOJ, PROVE IT IN A COURT OF LAW, IF THEY WILL GO THAT FAR, THIS IS ANOTHER WITCH HUNT, AND NEXT, REP. ADAM SCHIFF WILL HAVE THE WOMAN IN HIDING!

    1. Look how far they were willing to go to prevent Kavanaugh from being a Supreme. They have no shame and will stop at nothing. And the sin is that they have women who are willing participants in their little charades. Chrissy Ford comes to mind, not to mention Feinstein. All for the sake of selling out America to China. When did this happen??

  16. So the DOJ has time to look into consensual adults having sex and with drug involvement possibly, I guess they have a lot more free time now that they do not prosecute violent crimes any longer or worry about murders, looting or rioting. Nothing political here just good honest police work by the group that wants to defund the police and make every other crime not a crime.

    1. At least he’s not taking bribe $$ from Ukraine and China ala Hunter. Or accepting “donations” from foreign countries while Sec of State ala the Clinton slush fund “Foundation” not to mention the illegal private server “matter”! The selective “investigations” and methods are obvious and outrageous. But Dems don’t even try to hide it any longer, since there seems to be no penalty box for their blatant egregious behaviors.

  17. I don’t really trust the DOJ, they have not always had the best interest of true justice behind what they do. I don’t want it to be true because, I do think he was starting to do some good things. BUT, IF it is true, than he needs to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. NOT a witch hunt, but just true justice for any crime committed. But I really hope it isn’t true!

    1. Remember Obama’s “Wing Man” Holder? Garland is just p.o.’d about being denied the SCOTUS so I’m guessing he’s out for revenge!! Thank God we don’t have to deal with him as a Supreme and get rid of him when Repubs take back House and Senate in 2022 and the WH in 2024 — if Repubs can get their heads out of their behinds long enuff to work together to stop the steals by the Dems!

  18. As a single man during this time…so what if he paid for sex? Lots of men do that. I question more who this person is who found it necessary to go to feds about it. If this woman exists, is really under age then I would like to know a bit about her. Was she giving false ID, did she misrepresent herself as older, and what was she prostituting for? Why is this coming up now? I think it just another smear job like the Russia stuff to discredit and oust a conservative out spoken congressman who actually asks the hard questions and stands up to all the communist democrat crap.

  19. This is another smear tactic by the mob democrats because they want Senator Gaetz off the Judiciary Committee. We don’t believe the accusations. Matt was single and dated but not what he’s being accused of. Please pray for this good man.

  20. Receipts on mobile payment apps reviewed by the Times showed money from Gaetz and Greenberg being sent to one of the women, who told friends it was for having sex with both men. A person interviewed by the Times said the men would sometimes use hotel ATMs to pay in cash.”

    Doesn’t look good. No response from Gaetz may have been advised by his lawyers as a general policy.  We’ll see.

  21. Come on folks we all should be aware of the Democrat/Socialist parties unAmerican activities against Republican candidates and operativest hey fear. . . Gaetz is one that they definitely fear and we all know false accuzations are easy to get out and to promote vigorousy until they are disproven but the Dems always get some mileage and might gain some leverage for an instant. It will be fully explained with proof of innocence soon ! . . . While we are asking why does the public always fall f0r all of this crap with Republicans while Joe Bidens son Hunter and Joe’s brother have caused much damage against our countgry with foreign enemy nations. . .There are 30 or 40 or maybe more Democrat operatives as well as elected ofeficials under investigayion for felony cirmes AND WE NEVER GET TO HEAR ABOUT THEM ! ! !

    1. Easy to get out and promote becuz of a very complicit liberal propaganda machine masquerading as the media!

  22. Any Republican that threatens the communist regime in power now, WILL be cancelled one way or another, THIS IS WHAT HAS TO BE STOPPED!!!

  23. Whether or not it’s true, it begs the question: why are the Clintox’s and others of their ilk running around free?

  24. The demonRAT’s at experts at fraud, they stole the 2020 election for the House, the Senate and the White House. They are experts at manipulating, forging, and creating crime against their opponents who will not bow to them and cave like most of the repubs do. They have the FBI, the CIA, the DOJ, the NIA, NSA, and all the powerful offices at their bidding and in their pockets. I do not put anything past these powerful offices with expert technology to have CREATED the fake evidence that they are about to present to an unsuspecting citizens who have no idea of how evil and wicked these communists are! Just like they did with the fake dossier, TWO fake impeachments, the fake Russian charges, the fraud at our elections, the paid riots, as they paid to get their rioters out of jail so they could get back to more riots, burning down businesses, and killing police, innocent people and babies I have no doubt that they are paying these people that they have gathered, to use them to take Gaetz down and out for them. This is the way they operate, it is the classic SMEAR, SLANDER, SLIME, and CHARACTER ASSASSINATION that they is their hallmark. This is what the mafia and the mobs do. They pay people to false witness, they enlist these high offices to create the crime against their target, and to cover their treason, and they get rid of their opponents this way.

    Matt Gaetz is their latest target. They got rid of Trump, now they will be taking all of them down ONE AT A TIME, because he is not shutting up, he’s not accepting their treason and forgery, and he’s not obeying them. This is a typical communist maneuver. They have their tech people in the FBI, the CIA, the DOJ, the NSA, the NIA to produce text messages that look authentic.

    This is what technology has done to our country, it allows the evil to become more evil. This is a classic SLIME campaign from the expert slime machine of the communist demonRAT party mafia and their mobs.

    The demonRATs have absolute power and control to do anything that they want to do now, , they can hide, cover, then destroy their crimes and treason, and they are taking it to heights that no one has ever seen before in our country. They are doing what communist China does, and this is why the 2020 election was done in such elaborate fraud. They had to do this to take the power and control that they have hungered for decades. This is why they hate Trump so much, because he delayed this takeover of our country when he won the White House from Hillary. What we are seeing now would have happened under Hillary, and they are making blame sure that they will never taste that defeat ever again.

    God help us if SOMEONE cannot figure this out and stop them from destroying another person with their evil fraud against another innocent human being.

    Because Jim Jordon, and Josh Hawley, and all the ones who oppose them and do not obey them, will be taken down one at a time. They know that if they do all of them at once it will be too obvious. They are sneaky, slimy evil wicked, and nothing is too evil and wicked for them.

    1. NO one, no party, no entity should have this much power against anyone. When they weaponize their highest offices against their fellow associates who are supposed to have equal power to them, think about what they will do to us “peons” who are merely fit to supply our paychecks to them and obey their every command.

  25. I WOULD GUESS THAT BEHIND THESE ATTACKS ARE THE 2 PEOPLE IN THE DEM PARTY WHO ARE TRYING THEIR BEST TO REMOVE ANY THREAT TO THEM MATT OF COARSE IS IN CONGRESS AND WHO HAS TRIED BEFORE TO START A FAKE ACCUSATION ON OUR PEOPLE. THE FEMALE DEVIL IN DISGUISE. THEY ARE AT THE SAME OLD TACTIC THAT THEY HAVE USED OVER AND OVER . WE SHOULD BE USE TO THEIR CRIME SPREE OF ATTACKING OUR PEOPLE. SOMEONE IS RUNNING SCARED OF LOSING THEIR POSITION——- AND WE ALL KNOW WHO./

  26. AND AND AND THE RUN WITH THE DEMS WE KNOW THAT THE DOJ IS NOT THE UP AND UP OF MORALS . AND THEY TEND TO RUN WITH TH DEMS IF YOU HAVE BEEN PAYING ATTENTION , THE ARE SLOW GIVING OUT THE FACTS THE INVESTIGATIONS OF CRIMES DONE BY THE DEMOCRATS

  27. So this allegations have not yet produced the under age girl, he could have gone with adult women that is his choice, also as representative he can have issue accounts on his name than other people can pay from also, he said a DOJ former employee is exhorting him….and Gaetz name him.

  28. Funny He allegedly paid for the sex. What about all the rap allegations against others? Neither is good just pointing out hypocrisy…

  29. Two willing adults having an arranged sexual and consensual encounter is not shocking news to me but the issue of possibly being blackmail to destroy an individual’s career based on his political affiliation over this affair seems criminal to me. Well if they can get away with spying on Candidate Trump and some of his administration I guest anything is possible when wallowing in the Beltway Swamp. I hope Rep. Goetz stands fast and doesn’t give up the good fight.

  30. Democrats are working overtime so they can unseat Republicans and seat Democrats! Remember Pelosi’s “by any means necessary!” threat? We cannot let them get by with this!

  31. Matt dude, if, IF allegations are true, next time use the funds from Congressional Hush Slush Funds! Then you would have the Dem’s back slapping you in awe.

  32. This nothing but a smear campaign against Matt Gaetz for standing with Trump. If he was involved in any sex scandal why did they waited so long to investigate him. It’s ploy to destroy his career and life as well.

  33. I am creating an honest wage from home 1900 Dollars/week , that is wonderful, below a year gone i used to be unemployed during an atrocious economy. I convey God on a daily basis. I used to be endowed with these directions and currently it’s my duty to pay it forward and share it with everybody,
    Here is where I started……….►  News701.Com

  34. I pray its LIES to hurt Matt. I know him and would hate to see the panhandle lose such a great Congressman.

  35. Let me tell you first hand I tweeted our REAL pres. 3 years ago about an FBI case and they refuse to do anything to get my lost money back. Our president sent it over to the FBI, and I got a letter from the DOJ a month later saying there are NO files on me at all. LIES.. Was it the FBI, DOJ or both? Also I called on the unlisted number to ask about my case about 4 months before that, and they said “Don’t call us again” and slammed the phone down on me. By the way I was kicked off twitter 1 month after I tweeted our wonderful courageous and GREAT president who is a true patriot, I was kicked off for TRUTH to Laura Ingraham, did not know she was being TROLLED, and she is off too. I wanted to tell our president what happened so he could take care of it, and now the evil, demon possessed DEMS stole the election. Hoped TRUMP would do the Insurrection Act, but he was given bad advice, did not listen to Flynn, and so America is beig destroyed. Its time for Patriots to do their work. So do you think Matt is guilty, NO WAY.

  36. I don’t believe any of this. The liberals will lie and pay people to lie in order to remove a solid Patriot who loves his country. Never give up.

  37. I will wait for the complete investigation and the facts. So many have been tried by the media which acclaimed their guilt only to find out there was no truth to the claims. This may be nothing more than another smear campaign. After all, Biden and Cuomo still hold office despite the claims against them.

  38. I couldn’t care less about Gaetz’ sexual activities – he’s single and I’m sure feels he needs to be discreet. He’s extremely good at his job. Move along!

  39. I like Matt Gaetz, but I’ve always been troubled by his frequent opposition to some of President Trump’s positions. Having said that, Gaetz is in the crosshairs of the communist Democrat Party. Overall, I think Congressman Gaetz is more republican than not and I hope he survives this dastardly attack by these evil communists.

  40. Nope, I don’t see it! Reading all the remarks I did, I believe the best man on the right could not be good enough to be innocent by a democrat right now! When Farrankin comes out today and says he is Jesus, then who, anywhere, could not be picked out the crowd to be defaced and tampered with?! Guilty of trafficking, absolutely not! I know he has given up his own life to father a boy who he adopted out of the goodness of his heart is not very likely to bring unrighteousness of that kind upon himself. He did this seventeen years ago by cracky, I say no I defend him! That’s all I’ll say about it! The man has a right to his opinions!

  41. Extortion is punishable by law. Matt G is fearless and is an attack dog when it comes to finding the truth. I think he’s being targeted. We need his strength and his voice. Slush funds to hide sexual activity ignored. Sleeping with the enemy and the enemy funding a campaign ignored. A son going to China and being filmed raping children ignored. Trafficking children at the border ignored. Shazam they want to pin something on Matt G suddenly. Anything the Demonrats do ignored, including being arrested for sex with little children.

  42. You got to be kidding me.
    We have I assume R hiring willing hookers and what is the DOJ doing with Gov.of New York where women were not soliciting ?
    ,Prince Andy, Bill Clinton’s 26 trips to orgy Island and Gates many meetings with Eipstein.
    This country is screwed up.
    Russian collusion was the dem’s in the end who hired Russian agent.
    What a bunch of hypocrites.
    Oh yah, hunter Biden
    Double Standards = Division and hate.
    All that A.I.and still this kind of b.s.?
    The problem is, all the A.I. should have been focused on our corrupt govt

  43. But this is being reported by the NY Times – the newspaper of lies and misrepresentations! If the Times had a better reputation, I would be more likely to believe them. As it is, they have no credibility at all. The Times, and seemingly ALL the writers, are so fill;ed with hate, hate, hate that anything or anyone they don’t like, they lie about incessantly. AND! They don’t like Republicans; they absolutely HATE Donald Trump.

    The Times could tell me it’s raining outside, and I wouldn’t believe them until I walked outside.

  44. If he had a ( D) by his name , he would survive, but with a (R) by his name, you know what that means, guilty no matter what, oh, and he’s a racist too!! Give it two weeks and we’ll find out that there’s nothing to it, like every time the Demacrates try to destroy someone’s career. Like usual no contact or information names given from where this accusation came from, but there again, the damage may have already been done, we’ll see! God be with you Rep. Gaetz

  45. I truly doubt the authenticity of all this. Matt Gaetz is a strong supporter of President Trump and possibly they are going after Florida and all Conservatives. We know how the Deep state operate. They paid women to smear President Trump . Evil people Or retaliation because Eric Stallwell was caught with his pants down with a Chinese spy

  46. They will do ANYTHING to ruin a conservative …..I’d he’s guilty FINE, let’s reveal all the dirt on people in DC! Not just some….how can we trust DOJ who had hunter Biden’s computer and all the rape videos with children and his underage niece?. Reality check

  47. Hey, if Joe Biden has extorted money from Ukraine and sexually assaulted several women, who have come forward, and if his son is a coke addict and reaping in millions of dollars from the Ukraine and Chinese companies for work which he is unqualified to do, and Bill Clinton was on Epstein’s island dozens of times, many without Secret Service, and John Kerry was colluding with Iran, when Trump was in the White House, which is totally illegal, then I guess nothing matters anymore.
