Matt Gaetz
Where Things Stand: As Commission Vote Fails, Gaetz Flirts With Idea Of Political Violence 
This is your TPM afternoon briefing.
Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Matt Gaetz (R-FL) continued their tour of terribleness last night.
As arguably the most Trumpy and scandal-plagued lawmakers in the House, the two have been holding a series of weird MAGA rallies around the country in recent weeks for unclear reasons — perhaps to prove their fealty to the master, to burnish their brand, or just because the two have nothing better to do.

The other is under federal investigation for the possible sex trafficking of a minor. As Trump maintains — only the best people.
