Fux Noise: Silent on reports of Matt Gaetz's alleged sexual misconduct and possible sex trafficking

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Fox News is ignoring perhaps the most shocking story in US politics this week.

On Tuesday night, The New York Times broke the news that Rep. Matt Gaetz, a Florida Republican and frequent Fox News guest, is under FBI investigation over whether he had sex with a 17-year-old girl and violated federal sex trafficking laws. Gaetz has not been charged in connection to the investigation.

Soon after the story broke, Gaetz appeared on Fox host Tucker Carlson's show to defend himself against what he called "false sex allegations," which he claimed were part of a larger extortion plot targeting his family. Afterwards, Carlson told his audience the conversation was "one of the weirdest interviews I've ever conducted."

Since then, news outlets have reported a series of additional bombshell allegations about Gaetz's misconduct. On Thursday, CNN reported that Gaetz had shown nude photos and videos of women he claimed he'd had sex with to fellow lawmakers.
