Matt Gaetz Spied On Aboard Plane, Viral Video Shows Texts With Mom

  • A viral TikTok video from June 24 captures former U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz engaged in a heated text exchange with his mother on a plane regarding President Trump's recent military actions against Iran.
  • The dispute began after Gaetz publicly criticized the strikes, leading his mother to warn him that his future in politics and law was in jeopardy and to stop speaking out against Trump.
  • Gaetz texted several foreign policy arguments, asserting Iran has been three months from nukes since 1992 and that Obama was more pro-war than Trump, while his mother urged loyalty to Trump’s policies.
  • Gaetz confirmed the texts were real on Tuesday morning, adding he was recorded without knowledge on a flight and stating, "I've never been freer to share my views and will continue to do so."
  • The video highlights a broader MAGA divide over U.S. involvement in the Iran conflict and suggests ongoing tensions between Gaetz's media role and his mother's political warnings.
