1. Been following the conversation on Twitter via an @yashar thread. Pretty bizarre situation here

[riversedge]

7. Let me add this to the stack of weird pics. Nestor's mom left a comment..........

gets interesting to say the least.

14. "How beautiful my youngest son, they look good kisses"

Whoa

[riversedge]

17. Proud mother. But can't help but think she does not know the

creeps her son is hanging around with. maybe she does.

[SoonerPride]

2. When the full story comes out Matt will either be in prison or out of office.

Or both.

[Dennis Donovan]

4. yup - this is uber-creepy stuff

[ace3csusm]

3. I guess he has never stopped drinking...Someone hide his keys otherwise we are all in more danger...

5. This sounds kinda sketchy. A House page lives with him?

If it's true it's weird and creepy. If it's false, it's also weird and creepy.

[sarcasmo]

25. A pool boy, Not an adopted son.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

28. That's what the weirdness of the situation suggests.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

10. It's a very old name with origins in Greek mythology,

and it's pretty common in Latin America. The kid's name isn't the weird thing about this story.

[hatrack]

18. Good friend of mine is Hector (also from Cuba) . . .

Classical names are fairly common in some Latin American countries.

Felipe, Agustin, Alonso, Alejandro, Cesar . .

[PTWB]

24. What's wrong with the name Nestor? It is a very common name.

[Laelth]

27. Nothing is wrong with that name.

My question was literal. Did Gaetz re-name his adopted child, or is “Nestor” his birth name?

It really doesn’t matter. I think I will delete the post.

8. If he had Nestor from age 13 to 19, does that really count as "raising" him.

Especially if they probably lived apart most of the year.

[BannonsLiver]

9. Wow

I never had Matt Gaetz inadvertently outs himself after picking a disgusting fight with a Dem on my bingo card. Life comes at you fast.

[Cha]

19. Rep Richmond tells gaetz that they weren't talking about "children".. they were

talking about Black Men". This is gaetz trying to Distract from #George Floyd~ICan'tBreathe, imo.

And, yes life does come at us Fast!

[yellowcanine]

11. I want to see the long form vault copy adoption papers!

Too dang convenient.

[riversedge]

12. In Dec. 2017, Matt Gaetz refers to his Cuban son, Nestor, as his "helper."

29. In 2016 he was just a local student

[Cha]

13. Actually.. gaetz did NOT "win the debate".. Rep Cedric Richmond

did. He told gaetz that they "weren't talking about Children.. they were talking about Black Men".

Link to tweet

Why are so many forgetting that? gaetz tried to Distract & it looks like it's working!

[octoberlib]

15. This is an interesting thread from William Legate

Link to tweet

Also of note, Matt Gaetz was the *only* Congressperson to vote against an anti-human trafficking bill.

Why did he adopt a Cuban boy in secret??

Link to tweet

Absolutely nothing wrong with gay adoption (it should be legalized everywhere), but why did Gaetz break from his party to bring it to Florida?

Link to tweet

Hey
@mattgaetz
, do the names Natalie Winters and Sofia Carbone mean anything to you? A little birdie told me what you did to them…

Matt Gaetz would hate it if the names Natalie Winters and Sofia Carbone appeared all over his Twitter feed… these poor girls are younger than his “son” & the things he did to them are inexcusable. Matt Gaetz is a predator.

Link to tweet

Uh, guys… according to the US Department of State, there has only been 1 adoption from Cuba in the last 2 decades, and it was a female…
@mattgaetz
- why does the government have no record of your ‘adoption’?

[stillcool]

16. yep...that's a strange one..

especially the House Page at 14. Reminds me of the Bush years.

[Cirque du So-What]

20. Nothing unusual about that

[JenniferJuniper]

21. I did not know Gaetz grew up in the Truman Show house,

you couldn't make all this shit up.

[sarcasmo]

22. Pool boy situation over a son.

[Hav]

23. That is really weird

There was always something creepy about Gaetz but I thought he was just a really stupid douche.
But I'd bet there is something else.

[fleur-de-lisa]

26. 2020 sure is a weird time to be alive.
