Summary

House Ethics Committee Republicans temporarily blocked releasing findings from a probe into allegations of sexual misconduct and other accusations against former Rep. Matt Gaetz, now Trump’s nominee for attorney general.

The report may be reconsidered on December 5, as Senate Republicans deliberate his controversial nomination.

Gaetz denies the allegations, including claims he had sex with a 17-year-old.

Senate Democrats have requested FBI records on past investigations. GOP allies praise Gaetz’s loyalty to Trump’s agenda.

    Because they’re not actually against pedophiles. They are pedophiles, but they can’t admit that. So they claim other people are pedophiles, like transgenders, and use that to shift the conversation away from the real issues. So were instead having to deal with defending baseless accusations with no proof, while they slip through in the chaos.

    And since the media has abandoned any semblance of journalistic integrity under their oligarch owners, they are failing their duty to accurately educate the populace on both current and past events like they once did fairly reliably.
