Matt Gaetz Hit With Disturbing New Drug-Fueled Teen Sex Allegations

A late-night court filing made Thursday in Florida alleges that Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) attended a “drug-fueled sex party” in 2017 with a 17-year-old girl who is part of a sex trafficking investigation, according to Jose Pagliery of NOTUS.

“The minor, who was a junior in high school at the time, arrived in her mother’s car for a July 15, 2017, party at the Florida home of Chris Dorworth, a lobbyist and friend of Gaetz’s, according to a court filing written by defense attorneys who interviewed witnesses as part of an ongoing civil lawsuit Dorworth brought in 2023.”

Gaetz allegedly engaged in the use of illegal drugs and sex with a minor, both of which are felonies in Florida.

“The discovery taken in this case to date reflects that on Saturday, July 15, 2017 … Dorworth, hosted a party at his residence … with the following guests present: (1) A.B.; (2) K.M.; (3) B.G.; (4) Matt Gaetz,” lawyers wrote in the filing, also listing several others. The defense lawyers filed testimonies from those three women — who the attorneys say placed Gaetz at Dorworth’s house that night — under seal pending a judge’s approval to make the records public.

Gaetz has repeatedly denied engaging in any illegal behavior, telling former Fox News host Tucker Carlson in 2021, “The person doesn’t exist. I have not had a relationship with a 17-year-old. That is totally false.”

However, this latest testimony suggests that Gaetz has been lying all along, with phone records undercutting his claims of innocence, Pagliery notes.

The defense lawyers also relied on Dorworth’s geolocated cell phone records, which showed that he communicated constantly with the congressman that day.The defense’s court filings show a hired digital forensic examiner identified Gaetz’s number, which has a Florida panhandle 850 area code and texted back and forth 30 times that day and then called Dorworth twice in the hours before the evening revelry. “B.G., another attendee at that party, confirmed A.B.’s testimony under penalty of perjury,” defense lawyers wrote.

Rather than comment on the latest allegations against him, Gaetz has been railing on podcasts and social media about what he calls “five assassination teams targeting Trump.” However, he has yet to provide a shred of evidence to bolster those claims.

Sounds like it’s about time for the Department of Justice to open a new criminal investigation of Matt Gaetz. He needs to be held accountable if he played any role in these parties.

Matt Gaetz Freaks Out RNC Viewers With Apparent ‘Facelift’ And Gets Trolled Online: ‘Lay Off The Botox’

Something strange happened at the Republican National Convention on Wednesday evening when Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) took the stage to address the assembled delegates.

As Gaetz stepped to the podium to speak, it was immediately obvious that something was different about his appearance, as Patriot Takes noted on Twitter with a side-by-side photo comparison of the Florida Republican.

Holy shit! Did Matty get a facelift? Or has he been hitting the Botox to look younger? Whatever the reason, it didn’t take long before social media exploded with top-notch mockery and trolling. Take a look:

WATCH Matt Gaetz Get Swatted Down During A House Hearing: ‘You Can’t Handle The Truth!’

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) got his head handed to him during a hearing of the House Oversight Committee by a witness testifying on behalf of committee Democrats as Republicans continued to pursue their bogus, fact-free impeachment inquiry against President Joe Biden.

The witness was Lev Parnas, a close associate of Rudy Guiliani, who allegedly ordered him to find damaging information about Biden and his son, Hunter. Parnas spent four months in prison for crimes related to that activity.

Attempting to counter claims that Russia instigated the search for corruption allegations against Biden, Gaetz told Parnas, “So it sounds like everyone here today, the only one working for a Russian oligarch was you.”

His voice dripping with sarcasm, Gaetz added, “You were really worried about our democracy, and you were here to warn us, but you were working for a Russian oligarch, wanted to get marijuana licenses, but then you didn’t even do it.”

“No,” Parnas responded. “That’s a lie, Congressman Gaetz.”

“But instead of spending 50 years in prison, you got four months,” Gaetz told the witness. “The DOJ didn’t listen to the truth because if they would listen to the truth, you guys would have been all in jail.”

“You don’t want to hear the truth,” Parnas told the Florida Republican. “You can’t handle the truth, Matt Gaetz!”

“Look, the truth for you is taking money from Russians to buy marijuana businesses and then going to jail and then coming here to lie about Trump,” Gaetz insisted.

Republicans don’t have a shred of evidence that President Biden committed any crimes or impeachable offenses. Their inquiry is classic McCarthyism and it’s backfiring on them. You’d think they have enough sense to stop digging the hole they’re in any deeper. But they don’t, and they’re far too busy taking orders from failed former president Donald Trump to do what’s best for the country.

Hunter Biden Has A Devastating Comeback When Matt Gaetz Asks Him About His Drug Use

Hunter Biden’s closed-door testimony before the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday led to sparks between Biden and committee member Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) when the Florida congressman asked about drug usage by the president’s son, according to a transcript of the hearing.

Gaetz began by asking Biden, “Were you on drugs when you were on the Burisma board?”

Biden responded, “Mr. Gaetz, look me in the eye. You really think that’s appropriate to ask me?”

Gaetz, “Absolutely.”

“Of all the people sitting around this table,” Biden said, “do you think that’s appropriate to ask me?”

Biden’s comment was a reference to an ongoing House Ethics Committee investigation of Gaetz for alleged drug use and sex with underage girls who were reportedly transported across state lines.

“I will answer it this way,” Biden told Gaetz. “I have been absolutely transparent about my drug use. Was I an addict? Yes, I was an addict. What does that have to do with whether or not you’re going to go forward with an impeachment of my father other than to simply try to embarrass me?”

It remains to be seen if the House Ethics Committee will release the results of its investigation of Gaetz before the November election. The report could result in the congressman being booted from Congress.

A federal criminal investigation of Gaetz for sex trafficking ended in 2023 when the Justice Department declined to charge him with any crimes related to his actions, NBC News reported at the time.

Prosecutors had spent months investigating Gaetz’s personal conduct and, specifically, allegations that he was part of a scheme that led to the sex trafficking of a 17-year-old girl. At the core of their investigation was testimony from a former Gaetz associate, Joel Greenberg, who worked as a Florida tax collector.

Matt Gaetz’s Victory Lap Over Mitch McConnell’s Decision To Step Down Bites Him On The A**

Rep. Matt Gaetz’s (R-FL) online reaction to a decision from Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) to step down as GOP Senate leader in November boomeranged badly on him, resulting in complete humiliation for the controversial Floridian.

Gaetz expressed his glee on Twitter/X, posting, “We’ve now 86’d: McCarthy McDaniel McConnell Better days are ahead for the Republican Party.”

It didn’t take long before others reminded Gaetz that failed former president Donald Trump had once supported McCarthy, McDaniel, and McConnell. They also pointed out that the GOP has been on a major losing streak since it chose to fully embrace Trump despite his legal woes and attempts to overturn the 2020 election.
