Welcome to Professor Micellis's classroom. I want to discuss with you the absolute meltdown that Matt Gates is having right now

after the bipartisan ethics committee in the House of Representatives released the report

finding substantial evidence that Matt Gates in statutory rape of a junior in high school,

that Matt Gates was involved in illicit drug use, that Matt Gates accepted improper gifts

while he held a public position, that he abused his public position by expediting the passport processing

for a woman he was having a relationship with and that he obstructed the congressional proceeding.

Look, here in Professor Micellis' classroom, though, I want to hear from the accused Matt Gates

and we'll see what he is rage posting, and we'll contrast that

to what the actual evidence was by the Ethics Committee. It's important to note up front

that the Ethics Committee was made up of an equal number of Republicans and Democrats. So this

was actually Republicans, as well as a group of Democrats, who released this. So it's people from Matt Gates's own party. So if they try to say, oh, it's the deep state this or the deep state. These are Republicans, by the way. So the first thing Matt Gates posts is a message from Donald Trump after the report was released.

And Trump says, very unfair, Matt, very unfair.

So Trump, Scott, Matt Gates is back right there.

Matt Gates also posts Trump allies to Gates.

Don't back down.
