The Congressman from Florida, Matt Gaetz, ain’t holding back as he zeros in on Republican U.S. Senator Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma. Gaetz, known for shaking things up in the political realm, didn’t mince words when he accused Senator Mullin of “protecting Biden” in a tweet.

The beef between these two conservative big shots began when Mullin made headlines for suggesting that President Joe Biden might not be impeachable for actions taken before he assumed the presidency. This didn’t sit well with Gaetz, who sees the value in holding all elected officials accountable, regardless of party affiliation.
Mullin’s stance on impeachment, as outlined in an appearance on Newsmax, raised Gaetz’s eyebrows. The Congressman took Mullin to task for his comments, particularly honing in on the suggestion that Biden’s pre-presidential actions might not be impeachable. Gaetz made his feelings known loud and clear, indicating that he wants to see a solid case presented for Biden’s potential impeachment, and he’s holding his fellow Republicans accountable for their actions and words.
This drama went down while Gaetz was out in Phoenix, attending Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest 2023. Just days before that appearance, Gaetz had already thrown shade at Mullin by pointing out a significant uptick in the Senator’s wealth. Gaetz ain’t shy about pushing Mullin on his stock trading habits, calling for a ban on trading stocks. It’s clear that Gaetz is watching his colleagues like a hawk and ain’t afraid to make waves when he sees fit.
Gaetz is making it known that he’s on the lookout for any Republican who’s not toeing the conservative line. His willingness to call out a fellow GOP member shows that he’s unafraid to ruffle feathers in the name of his conservative values and principles. Gaetz may be a firebrand in the political world, but he’s certainly not one to shy away from putting his own party members in the hot seat.
