Matt Gaetz Is a Great Choice for Attorney General

He represents the future

On the one-year anniversary of the raid on Special Agent Johnathan Buma’s home, probably conducted based on information from Everett Stern, the former Pennsylvania senate candidate and likely Israeli asset, Matt Gaetz was nominated by President-elect Donald Trump to be attorney general.

SA Buma might make a good FBI Director when this is over.

If the last decade was a redux of the 1960s, Matt Gaetz looks and dresses like a guy out of the 1970s.

I’m one of the few people who defended him in print while he was in the barrel, and now Trump has nominated him to be his attorney general. I’m proud of it, I’d do it again, and it’s important to stand by him now. Gaetz represents the future.

Gaetz’s grandfather Jerry referred to himself as North Dakota’s most progressive mayor. I FOIA’d his FBI record recently because he died of a heart attack at the 1964 state GOP convention in North Dakota, the one for Barry Goldwater, and nothing came up. But it’s important to understand that the positions Gaetz is taking are very much in the family tradition, especially when it comes to antitrust and employment issues.

If you care about breaking the FedSoc machine, a pipeline for lawyers that matches social conservatism to a hands-off approach to government regulation, the Gaetz appointment is very important. He’s also taken no money from AIPAC, and the Israelis hate him. He’s the perfect choice to break up a lot of these corrupt machines. He’s supported Lina Khan on some things. And the reality is, if you’re skeptical of war, a strong AG is probably more important than any foreign policy role, because there’s so much lawbreaking in the architecture of foreign influence.

We just found out he’s resigned his seat, which reflects a high degree of confidence Trump is going to fight for him. This is going to be a hell of a story.
