Trump Picks Matt Gaetz for Attorney General

President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday nominated Florida Rep Matt Gaetz, who exposed an alleged Israeli blackmail plot targeting his family and has taken zero money from AIPAC, for Attorney General.



"Few issues in America are more important than ending the partisan Weaponization of our Justice System," Trump said in a statement on Truth Social. "Matt will end Weaponized Government, protect our Borders, dismantle Criminal Organizations and restore Americans' badly-shattered Faith and Confidence in the Justice Department."

"Matt will root out the systemic corruption at DOJ, and return the Department to its true mission of fighting Crime, and upholding our Democracy and Constitution," Trump added.



"The Hammer of Justice is coming," Elon Musk tweeted after the announcement.


Merrick Garland's Department of Justice declined to charge Florida Rep Matt Gaetz in a sex trafficking investigation back in Feb 2023 after leaked texts revealed the Israeli government appeared to be implicated in a $25 million extortion plot targeting Gaetz's family.



Joel Greenberg, a potential Jeffrey Epstein-esque figure who had worked as a tax collector for Seminole County, Florida, appears to have tried to entrap Gaetz into having sex with a 17-year-old girl for blackmail purposes.



Unfortunately for Greenberg, the evidence the DOJ compiled indicated she had actually turned 18 when she was alleged to have taken a trip with Gaetz to the Bahamas in 2018.

Gaetz's case took a wild turn in April 2021 after Scott Adams of Dilbert fame released texts from Jake Novak, media director of the Israeli consulate in New York City, showing Novak had prior knowledge of Gaetz's sex trafficking investigation before any news had come out and appeared to be involved in a $25 million extortion plot to shake down Gaetz's father to get the case to go away.

Gaetz explicitly questioned whether the real hidden hand behind the extortion scheme targeting him and his father was "the government of Israel" itself.


After Gaetz's name was dragged through the mud and the extortion plot was exposed, Attorney General Merrick Garland declined to charge Gaetz with anything.

Gaetz unquestionably deserves to be treated as entirely innocent until proven guilty, as do all Americans, but I suspect even if Greenberg did get something on him the DOJ wouldn't want to risk it coming out in court that the Israeli government was behind yet another Jeffrey Epstein-style blackmail plot targeting our elected leaders.

Though Gaetz wasn't convicted of any crime, there is a judgement issue when it comes to hanging around with figures like Greenberg which we can only hope Gaetz has since learned his lesson on.

Gaetz's nomination will have to be approved by our AIPAC-owned Senate.
