Twitter Users Mock Matt Gaetz's After His Pardon Request Is Made Public [View all]
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) became a victim of “pardon bombing” Thursday on Twitter.
It happened after the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol revealed that the lawmaker was one of at least five members of Congress who attempted to get pardons from then-President Donald Trump for their roles in helping Trump attempt to overturn the 2020 presidential election.
But Gaetz wanted his pardon to be a lot broader than his role in Trump’s election fraud, according to Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide to White House chief of staff Mark Meadows.
She told the committee that Gaetz had been pushing for a pardon since early December, according to Business Insider.
