This is basically everything you need to know.
Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:
A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

Here's the reality: they've backed themselves into a corner. If they bring him home there will be hell to pay. It's clear that they believe that the lesser hell is not bringing him home. So we need to make that hell the worse hell. Start calling and screaming at all of your representatives now! 1/2

Seems about right…
This was all a setup to get these exact results. Now they will call for Zelensky to step down. And get a puppet in for Putin to control.
They even let a Russian State Media in so that they could relay all of it to Putin. This is bigger than it seems.

Assuming that there will be no rule of law, no checks or constraints of any kind, is a form of complying in advance.
Asserting that there _ought_ to be such things is a form of demanding them, and forcing their elimination to be seen as a rupture.

So Gaetz resigns his “current” seat, ostensibly to focus on AG nom, but chiefly to stall ethics investigation. If confirmed, the investigation dies. If not, fills his “just-elected” seat & the investigation dies. ? Diabolical if possible. Hell hath no fury like a woman's unleashed flowchart demons.
