Seriously can someone explain to me how this isn't a story? How the hell does a 30 year old single dude with DUIs adopt a kid from Cuba and it not be suspicious? 6/19/2020 10:48:39 PM

Why would that be suspicious, by itself? 6/20/2020 12:05:33 AM

Not suggesting it is wrong, but want to state isn’t it normally a requirement that adopting father is free of crime etc? I feel like if illegal jumped through the hoops and paid all the fees etc, if they tried to become a citizen and had dui, they’d be denied.
But someone with same issue could get a kid? Idk i might be totally wrong

So many questions.
Florida Republicans are always chasing the “Cuban vote,” you’re telling me that Gaetz didn’t find a politically convenient time to bring up his adopted Cuban son until.........now? 6/20/2020 7:51:15 AM

Adoption isn't like going to the pet store and picking which one you want. There are loads of waiting periods, interviews, character screening, etc. A single man with potential drinking issues wouldn't be at the top of the list 6/20/2020 9:30:00 AM

First time DUI in Florida is a misdemeanor. I doubt he even needed to disclose it. If he did disclose it, I doubt they gave it much weight. 6/20/2020 9:48:24 AM

Nothing says "I love you" like announcing your son's existence as a gotcha to own the libs.-] 6/20/2020 3:28:24 PM

It is likely more than a father-son relationship, at least that's what the interwebs is suspecting. 6/21/2020 11:09:54 PM

Let’s keep the high ground a little bit here, less we want to be known for sending in freedom fighters into Floridian Pizza parlors to free locked up Cuban boys in a nonexistent basement. 6/22/2020 8:49:37 AM
