“Matt Gaetz reportedly told senators skeptical of his suitability to be attorney general that he would not seek retribution against Donald Trump’s enemies – in his first week on the job, at least,” The Guardian reports.
Said Gaetz: “Look, I’m not going to go there and indict Liz Cheney, have storm troopers bust through the studio door at MSNBC, and arrest Anthony Fauci in my first week.”
The Bulwark: “It’s that last clause—’in my first week’—that sounded like an ominous disclaimer to some. And it prompted a few senators to ask, with a laugh: What happens thereafter?”
