Matt Gaetz claims the FBI doesn't care enough about him because he attacks the FBI

The Republican congressman has a whole new way of attacking the FBI.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) alleged on Tucker Carlson's Fox News show Wednesday — without evidence — that threats against him are not being taken seriously by federal authorities because of his alliance with Trump and constant smears of the FBI.

Gaetz said the U.S. Attorneys Office had reviewed phone messages Gaetz received and determined they were "a non-threat," even though Gaetz believes such messages are "obviously" a crime.

"I just wonder, is it the fact that I've been a critic of some of the senior officials at the FBI that maybe leads to different treatment for the people who threaten me?" he asked.

"As opposed to the people who actually get arrested who have threatened [Democratic Reps.] Eric Swalwell, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib. Those people actually get arrested, whereas when people threaten conservatives — I hope there's not a double standard," Gaetz said.

1. How about this ... right-wing nutjobs are stupid enough to make direct, legally-actionable threats,

whereas liberals who call you and talk shit about your corrupt ass ... aren't that stupid, hence the FBI can't do shit about it?

Ever think of that?

It's kind-of the Occam's Razor answer to this little 'quandary' you find yourself with, Mattie.

2. Maybe if he took his meds those threats against him would stop.

5. This is what trump

and other narcissists do. They are the aggressor, but they turn the tables and make themselves the "victim", and call the real victims the aggressor. They usually do this to anyone they think might be a threat to them in the future, or a threat to their"agenda",and their paranoia fuels their attacks. It's always "get them before they get you"!
