🤢

Is this an Onion headline ?

Nope, this our reality, bought and paid for by everyone who thought Gaza or cheap eggs and gas was more important.

Wow. Normally, I don’t think this type of guy gets confirmed… but,

I don’t think Gaetz gets confirmed, even with this version of Congress. I think there are a few GOP Senators that will say that Gaetz is just a bit too politically toxic.

Or will the lord and master threaten primaries on the recalcitrant? (Not Murkowski or Collins, they won’t bend to him)

I’m sure he will, but I’m not sure that matters to some, like Lindsey Graham.

…but almost all moderate republicans have been primaried or retired. The path is pretty damn clear.

I don’t know, this is a ridiculous choice, even for maga republicans . I mean, it’s Matt Gaetz 🤣😭

One would hope so. But the events over the past week tell me once more that nothing is to be taken for granted.

Yup. Well, if this goes through, im going to try and change species. Attach some antlers and move to the forest.

All we can hope for at this point are “natural causes”.

Covid was supposed to take care of much more of these folks for us.

Look Covid hit a lot of valuable targets, but as you say…not enough.

or, and hear me out, Democrats were so focused on courting "moderate republicans" they didn't realize they don't exist anymore their entire campaign was focused on trying to become GOP-Lite hoping it would get them support, and they screwed it royally

And you think a hard left shift would’ve done fuck and/or all? When you’re dealing with an electorate that happily trades democracy for cheap gas and eggs, explain to me go going further left would’ve done a damn thing. It’s time to recognize that your friends and neighbors aren’t either.

guy who doesn't think genocide is important when it's not happening to him voice

Imagine saying this to a black man with a straight face. The nerve. Most of you fuckwalters who cried over Gaza said nothing about Haiti and the Sudan genocides.

It’s the trendy scarf or whatever it’s called. If the Haitians, Sudanese or Rwandans had a stylish beret,or something, they might have mattered..

man I keep thinking about this and each time, a new racist layer reveals itself. pretty incredible really, good job

There is nothing racist about it. You’re too thick to understand the irony.

Note he chose to pick a fight with another white man so he could maintain a sense of superiority. None of us disagree that Gaza is a genocide, because it is, however we robbed Peter to pay Paul and soon we may be facing our own genocide as a result

“Don't bite your nose to spite your face” *not a scare quote.

you're right: shit is bad! but it's also not the fault of, e.g., arab-americans who didn't feel compelled to vote in favor of two options committed to their ongoing genocide. it lies squarely on the democratic party for running a dismal campaign, one that even started with great momentum!

It is the fault of ALL AMERICANS who traded our democracy for making a point. Now we all suffer. Fuck a campaign. If someone traded democracy for cheaper eggs and gas or to protest something happening elsewhere, they are every bit the problem the Trumpanzee is. I spit on you all now.

are you stupid or just an asshole

Please don’t disturb me, I’m protesting a ‘genocide’.

hey can you please explain what the scare quotes on genocide are for

you can't find evidence of me saying no other genocides are important, meanwhile you are here saying this particular one is not. seems like this one is on you

Again, you have the privilege of saying this wearing white skin.

Reality is an Onion Headline.

I wish….

A win for the pedophiles.

More embarrassing by the minute.

The depravity knows no bounds.

This guy is smart enough to follow John Mitchell as a role model.

Oh god. The jokes just write themselves now.

🤡🤡🤡

🤦‍♀️ God help America.

Yay, America! A rapist for POTUS and a statutory rapist for AG. We did it, guys; we turned into a kakistocracy!

BWAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂 God help us all.

Creepy, cringe and a suck up

America is getting what they asked for. Nothing else to say. Stop whining, you let this happen

Because Jeffrey Epstein was not available.

Only the very best people.

hahahahahaha Wait, you're serious? The US is so fucked.

Fascist

Plus side: project 2025 is not going to happen. Negative side: There really are zero consequences.

Another criminal running an agency.

Every time someone new is announced. I keep saying to myself ‘Is this an Onion News article??’🤦🏻‍♀️

Can we just fast forward the next 4 years.

Don't they have to be approved?

Remember how first term TFG had a shit-ton of unapproved "acting" department heads?

That's sad, the people that he's nominating are not even experienced!

If it wasn’t so tragic it would be fucking hilarious. What a time to be alive 😩

I keep thinking the same exact thing: "This would be so damn funny if it wasn't so damn tragic."

It’s an upside down world.

human trafficker/pedophile

Live reaction from Mark Meadows

Matt Gaetz is currently under investigation for sexual misconduct and was previously under investigation for sex trafficking underage girls. Trump’s is a wholly unserious administration.

I tell you what - let's all just assume he's going to appoint the ABSOLUTE WORST PEOPLE at each position and then we won't have this sickening feeling each time one more stupid person gets added to his reality show White House.

I'm going to be sick 🤢

So. I guess this is the series finale of America then?

Despite what correspondent Scott Jennings says on your network, no one's fucking entertained by this bullshit. I can't believe you idiots pay this fucking asshole.

I was about to say the same. Fuck them.

🤣😂🤣

I mean, he's had to HIRE a lot of attorneys.

gaetz's fondness for underage girls makes trump see him as a kindred spirit.

His first act will be to lower the age of consent to six

You now can be sure Trump will not be prosecuted for his sexual conduct !' Quid pro quo!

WHAT!!!

bro, its like slovakia, but worse

#FreeNestor

Further proof this administration is nothing but a clown show.

Shocker. 🙄

Glad to see your hired idiot Scott Jennings thinks this is all funny.

Wait? Is this April 1? No, no, this must be CNN disguising itself as The Onion, right? Right? Dear god, please tell me that's right.

How??? 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ oh well we are definitely doomed. 🤷‍♀️

This will be the most spectacular failure of an administration. I cannot wait to watch it all burn down.

The Mr. Rapey McForehead for what? Holy shit, talk about DOA on any chance of this going down. The background check alone will scare the shit out of this asshole. This has got to be a prank or joke. #AGRapey

@kfs78.bsky.social

You have officially entered the twilight zone

This shit show is just getting started.

Matt Gaetz is an attorney? Well, it is Florida so I suppose that tracks.

This was our first response! He apparently has a law *degree* and was once employed by a law firm but that’s it. Bonkers.

Isn't he the pedo guy?

Make the Swamp Great Again

George Santos is still possible if Matt goes down… 😂 Seriously.

The clown show is complete.

The clown show is just getting started. This is just the programme for Act I - we’ve got at least another 4 or 5 line ups to come.

Wtf

Rocketing towards a literal kakistocracy, a government of toadies.

Sane washing even the headline. Nobody watches CNN

MAGA me once shame on you MAGA me twice shame on me

Nominated, you fools. Accuracy matters!!!

Convicted Rapist appoints suspected sexual predator as Attorney General... WOW....!!!!!! ....🤦‍♂️

Who wants to take bets on how long it is before this clown sexually harasses an assistant or 3? Taking bets on the first time it happens and the first time its made public.

He's trolling us, right?....

Gaetz was second choice. The original choice, some used toilet paper, was accidentally flushed away. Third choice was a toothbrush formerly owned by Randy Quaid in 1975.

WTF?? These never will happen. Wait a month.

He's making his Super Villians cabinet.🤦‍♀️

Good luck to the Americans (but there's always the 2nd Amendment).

WTF. THE CLOWN SHOW IS GETTING BIGGER AND BIGGER

That's wild. They are really going nuclear

It's geting worse and worse. Who's next, Puff daddy at the FDA ?

So funny but not

G-d help us

I just herd a guest on MSNBC say This announcement is like vomit in the mouth.

Evil Jimmy Neutron as AG? This can't be real life

Not a good move

The lunatics are going to run the asylum.

Yep, we are screwed!

Networks like you own this. You normalized Trump and now we’re all living in a dumpster fire. Nothing normal about what is happening in this country. It’s a dangerous game you’re all playing for your own benefit.

😂😂😂😂here we Go America... don't say you weren't warned prior to the election

OK - I see how this is going - my money is in a horse for Secretary of State Education.

I mean - that’s one way to stop an investigation into the guy’s underage sex and drug parties. You’ve got to respect the comedy.

It makes sense that a president who Is a sexual predator would want an AG that is a sexual predator too

National Tragedy

Are you just going to act like this is normal????!!

Rep Matt Gaetz, who is currently under investigation for human trafficking and statutory rape, is tapped for Attorney General. Fixed it for you, @cnn.com

They have no idea what they have done.

After Trump, the next administration have a lot of work to do…starting with charging the entire administration with RICO because this is a criminal enterprise. WOW we’re so screwed.

What the actual fuck????

The clown car keeps getting bigger.

@cnn.com Maybe you should mention that Gaetz is being investigated by congress for ethics violations and is suspect of sex trafficking www.msnbc.com/the-reidout/...

Pedophile in the Whitehouse, pedophile as attorney general! What can get wrong here?

🤮🤮

Wow just wow

Isn’t he being investigated for child sex abuse?

Who’s doing the investigation?

This guy? www.cnbc.com/2024/09/26/m...

A travesty of justice by its very nature.

Yikes

Insane.

This is insane. But, Trump being a felon.... Birds of a feather flock together.... This needs to stop. Follow us. #DefendersOfLiberty

This is truly horrific.

He's a pedophile

This is shaping up to be the most corrupt government in history, from top to bottom. 🤢

This tracks…

not even bothering with “nominates,” huh. Well, neither is he

LOL LOL

He would be marginally better than Bill Barr. At least we would know what he really thinks.

OMG

Well we know CNN won’t actually speak the truth about the sexual abuser.

Great, a pedophile for Attorney General

"Beavis nominates Butt-Head for attorney general"

Gross

This is Onion, right?

What? What about Josh Hawley???

Don’t you have to be an attorney to be Attorney General?

😳😂😂

I don’t ever want to hear a word out of GOP about democrats pick if they confirm this guy

Please tell me this is a simulation 😟.

I am trying to turn it off and on again because it is FUBAR

Noooo f...king way wow. A pedophile. The usa are realy done lol

That confirmation hearing is going to be lit.

US is preparing to leave all allies and start to join Russia rules. Half of Americans prefer to leave all allies, principles and democracy if that will put a little more money in their pockets. We cannot do much about that

God help us

Idiocracy!!!!!

Are you fucking kidding me? Holy fucking shit you are all doomed.

CORRECTIONS: *and convicted felon *has nominated *pedophile *sex trafficker

So over the outrage. Let Rome burn. I won’t be tuning in, the media made this mess by normalizing a fascist, a felon and sexual predator. They can deal with the lack of “engagement” from viewers. Hope CNN dies.

Oh wow. This is super embarrassing. This whole Trump clown show is.

The idocracy has returned to stay. The GOP (Gang Of Pinnochio's) will only move to do what the strings, manipulated by Gepetto Trump, will force them to do... #GOP #idiocracy

OMFG

WTAF

This is beyond sick

🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️🤡🤥

Gone off the rails now

A sexual predator at the head of the Justice Dept is very on brand for Trump

Whatever happened to draining the swamp? Seems like he’s expanding the swamps now.

Did the The Onion take over CNN? This has too be satire.

HAHAHAHAHAHA .. you gotta be shittin' me.

He fits right in.

What the…??????

Please don't do Beavis and Butthead dirty like that, they're WAY more respectable than this repugnant clown.

I was thinking the same thing!

Insanity...

Lmao we really living through this people
