We knew that Democrats and swampy Republicans would never just sit back and allow Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) to be confirmed as Attorney General for Donald Trump's second administration without a knock-down, drag-out fight, and the shenanigans in the effort to derail the nomination are ramping up. The New York Times reported Tuesday morning that 24 files with "damaging testimony" about Gaetz were obtained by a "hacker," but that so far the hacker has not publicly released any of the information.
An unidentified hacker has gained access to a computer file shared in a secure link among lawyers whose clients have given damaging testimony related to Matt Gaetz, the former Florida congressman who is President-elect Donald J. Trump’s choice to be attorney general . . .

According to the NYT:
The documents include information that is under seal with the Justice Department, which investigated Mr. Gaetz but did not file charges . . .
The hacked information also includes sworn testimony from [Christopher] Dorworth and his wife, as well as testimony from Michael Fischer, Mr. Gaetz’s former campaign treasurer, who is also said to have attended the party. It also contains various supporting material, such as the gate logs showing who entered the property of the Dorworth home on the evening in July 2017 when the two women said the sexual encounter with Mr. Gaetz occurred.

In his deposition, Dorworth said:
“The thing I didn’t really contemplate when this whole thing started was the idea that people would lie themselves into these stories because of Matt’s political celebrity. I truly believe that is what happened.”
On Tuesday, Dorworth said on X that he passed 3 polygraph tests related to his testimony in the case and that "Matt Gaetz did not do this."

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Does anyone else have a hard time believing this?
It seems more likely someone with access leaked the deposition and then created the "hacker" story. Agreed?
