Matt Gaetz Tells Mom He's "Guiding" Trump [View all]

Amazed we're not locked in at the doorstep of World War III during a climate crisis when the Constitution of the United States is used for toilet paper by the Dixie-KKK-Mafiya axis under NAZIs run by Putin.



Matt Gaetz Caught Texting His Mom About How He's 'Guiding' Trump

Huffington Post, June 25, 2025

Former Rep. Matt Gaetz was secretly recorded on a flight texting his mother about “guiding” President Donald Trump against the U.S. getting involved in the Iran and Israel war.

The video recording was uploaded to TikTok on Monday and has more than 1 million views as of press time. In the texts captured in the video, Gaetz inadvertently let slip some private family news while also defending his attempts to sway the president on foreign policy and his abilities as a Trump whisperer in response to his mother’s warning against opposing him.

“I’m trying to guide him, not criticize him,” Gaetz texted his mom, according to the TikTok video. “But I’ve never been freer to share my views — and I’ll continue to do so.”

He continued, “I think about the people who cheered the Iraq war because they liked Bush. Those people have blood on their hands.”

Gaetz, who hosts “The Matt Gaetz Show” on One America News Network, said on his June 17 show that Trump’s pro-Israel friends and advisers were trying to “pressure” Trump into launching airstrikes against Iran.
