Seth Meyers hits Matt Getz where it hurts with cruel Venmo joke
Seth Meyers did not miss a convenient opportunity to cast a shadow on the representative. Matt Goetz (R-Fla.) during his Tuesday roast.
“democrats are reportedly concerned that attempts to ban TikTok could make it harder to reach young voters,” the Late Night host said. “Well, you can do what Republicans do and contact them on Venmo.”
“Just what happened, I don’t know why everyone is so weird about it,” he added.
He meant allegations that Gaetz made payments to Venmo partner Joel Greenberg, a former tax collector from Florida, as part of the money for sex network. Greenberg was sentenced last year to 11 years in prison in a Justice Department sex trafficking investigation that also investigated allegations that Gaetz had sex with a 17-year-old girl and paid her to travel with him across state lines. Greenberg pleaded guilty to sex trafficking of minors and other crimes.
Lawyers for Gaetz said last month that the Ministry of Justice had completed its investigation into the deputy and would not bring any charges against him.
