"At an October fundraising dinner in Cape Canaveral, U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz — already a subject, perhaps unknowingly, of a Department of Justice sex-trafficking probe against associate and former Seminole County tax collector Joel Greenberg — touted his longtime friendship with Brevard County Commissioner John Tobia.

Phil Archer has to go. But I think I'll go get a police uniform so I can slow down traffic and protect my community!
Brevard county has me jaded, I was not even a tiny bit shocked by the close relationship. Seems pretty par for the course around here.
