  • On Dec. 4, 2020, the Call to Activism Facebook page posted a meme that claimed New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy called U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz 'Matt Putz' and a 'fool' who should stay out of New Jersey after Gaetz ignored NJ COVID rules. It is true that Murphy called Gaetz Matt Putz and also referred to him as a fool. Video of the Matt Putz moment was posted on Twitter: That video was also retweeted by the account for @GovMurphy: Murphy's account also tweeted the name Matt Putz: NBC New York reported on the story, writing that it was out of character for the governor to go after another politician in such a manner: It's true that Gaetz attended a gala with the New York Young Republican Club, and he was pictured maskless with others at the event. While Gaetz was a guest speaker, the keynote speaker was listed as James O'Keefe of the conservative activist group Project Veritas. Gaetz published a number of tweets in response to Murphy's calling him out, including one that said: You’re gonna regret this tweet when you move to Florida like the rest of New Jersey. He also said he would be returning to New Jersey in the future. (en)
