Summary
The House Ethics Committee has expanded access to its report on Matt Gaetz, recently nominated for attorney general by Trump.
The report details allegations of sexual abuse and drug use, including claims Gaetz paid women for sex and had relations with a minor, which he denies.
While House Speaker Mike Johnson seeks to block public release, some Republicans demand transparency due to Gaetz’s nomination.
The Justice Department previously investigated similar allegations but declined to press charges.
Senate confirmation hearings are expected to intensify scrutiny.
They’ll do recess appointments, claim they didn’t vote for him, and point the finger at Trump, who will end democracy.
Except, in a rare moment of spinal development, Moscow Mitch has already said there would be no recess appointments. Let’s hope that holds.
