So we need to fill his seat, he quit, right? Let’s keep pushing the case against this pedo-rapist.
Yep. Now there will be a special election. His political career is over, at least for now.

Doesn't Desantis unfortunately pick his successor?
I was told elsewhere that Florida law doesn't allow for him to do that, but feel free to correct me if anyone here knows better please.
Correct.
No, he was reelected for the next Congress.
According to this there will be an election to fill his seat because he resigned.
It's all a distraction from the other malicious picks, isn't it…
not really. he withdrew because if he gets the positon a moral report on his person would become public. he saw the report and withdrew. wow i wonder what it says
Probably that he fucks kids
Surely the public wouldn’t give a shit
Oh I'm sure he'll find a whole new malicious pick for AG. What's Kari Lake doing right now? Or Lara Loomer? Or Rudy? He's sort of a lawyer still.
Maybe Dr. Phil or Hulk Hogan are free.
From a child he's raping or- oh, no, the AGship. Well that's pretty good, but he'll still be free to rape again.
Thank god. Release the Ethics report. Bury him.
"but you'll never stop my love of teenagers!"
Be careful what you wish for, the next one might be worse.
We’re kinda scraping the bottom of the barrel right now.
Look straight up. Now focus on that thing waaay up there. It's pretty far away so it's hard to see.
That's the bottom of the barrel.
It's all guano at the bottom though
There's always more barrel to scrape.
The pillow guy
Maybe Bill Cosby or P Diddy? You have to be a rapist for this job right?

Personally, I'm guessing Eileen Cannon. That is, if she doesn't get a supreme court seat.
I bet they didn't think it could get worse than Santos.
MTG? oh no, she's already with DOGE!
What a shitshow!
I long for the days when MTG was a card game and not an insane christo-fascist
Yeah, well I won't stay with the devil I know just because the next one might be worse
I'm in utter disbelief that there might actually be a line too far for the Republicans. I'm sure the various Fox news hosts and Hulk Hogan are all on tenterhooks waiting for the phone call.
So was it the gay sex story or the underaged girl? I bet it was the gay sex.
Please, half the Republicans in Congress are gay or bi. They don't give a shit.
Gaetz is getting ousted because they've realized he left REAL evidence behind, and they're not going to be able to suppress it if he takes the position, and someone leaks it. Might still get leaked, anyway
And so many more must have told him that he's not got a chance.
I fully expect he'll nominate Kyle Rittenhouse next.
He's gonna pardon and bring in the guy who tried to kill Pelosi's husband
Cool, so, let's still release the documents and destroy him more! If we are lucky, retard marge will spill the rest and we can sweep up a pile of shit and toss it out all at once!
how the fuck are people still using the 'r' slur in 2024??
"Trump now hard-pressed to come up with an even worse option, but experts predict he is more than capable."
Bannon
Can’t handle being put in the position of prosecuting his buddies even though trump will pardon them in the ridiculous farce of a legal system we’ll have for at least the next four years.
He's going to be on bed rest after his next eyebrow raise.
I'd love to be relieved.. but I don't doubt that Trump can find someone worse.
He's bargaining with public opinion. Making a preposterous offer before making the one he thinks will land for him.
He's really not smart enough to be that devious.
