Yacht owner details failed deal involving Rep. Gaetz, fiancée

He wrote that the hailing port on the boat was also changed from St. Pete to Niceville, a city in Gaetz’s district. Gaetz went to Niceville High School.

Mother Mary on a bisquit. My alma mater. Damnit. Things musta changed in fifty years. I don't recall yacht marinas. OTOH, we lived on a 40 footer tucked into various bayous to avoid mooring costs.

Around San Diego, it's pretty common to see Phoenix as a "home port" on some boats.

Just because.

In my defense, I did make it to Vegas, rented a large red convertible and took massive amounts of drugs (okay, I took my prescriptions).

I even spent my last day driving to Barstow, just to say I did.

Conservative media outlet Newsmax, a favorite of former President Donald Trump's, rejected embattled Republican U.S. Representative Matt Gaetz's request for a job, a spokesperson for the website said on Monday.

Gaetz contacted Newsmax early this year, a source at the outlet said. That was around the time that news broke Gaetz was the subject of a federal investigation into possible sex trafficking of a minor.

Possibly, but that sounds like more detailed planning than he's' capable of. It could be an attempt to be seen badgering the FBI on tv, and then when he gets indicted later, he will say it was just revenge by Wray.

He is setting up his victimhood for future fundraising.

As Gaetz investigation ramps up, feds mount sweeping probe into Central Florida political scene: Sources
The sprawling probe has revved up its focus on alleged corruption and fraud.

Since federal prosecutors obtained the cooperation of GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz's once close-ally in May, sources tell ABC News the ongoing investigation, which includes sex trafficking allegations involving Gaetz, has engulfed the tight-knit Central Florida political scene as prosecutors continue their investigation of the Florida congressman.

Former Seminole County tax collector Joel Greenberg, who reached a plea deal last month, has been assisting federal agents in the sprawling probe that has recently revved up its focus on alleged corruption and fraud stemming from Greenberg's time in office and beyond, multiple sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.

The former tax collector pleaded guilty in May to a host of crimes including charges of stalking, identity theft, wire fraud and conspiracy to bribe a public official, as well as a sex trafficking charge. Greenberg is prepared to hand over evidence and testimony that could implicate Gaetz and others, sources told ABC News.

Sources told ABC News that prosecutors believe a decision about whether or not to bring charges against Gaetz could come as early as July.
