Summary

House Republicans blocked efforts to release the Ethics Committee’s report on former Rep. Matt Gaetz, prolonging uncertainty over allegations of sexual misconduct despite his resignation from Congress.

Democrats pushed for transparency, accusing Republicans of hiding credible allegations. Speaker Mike Johnson argued that publishing the report sets a bad precedent.

While ethics reports have rarely been released post-resignation, tensions remain high on the bipartisan committee.

Gaetz denies wrongdoing, and DOJ previously closed its sex trafficking probe without charges. The report’s fate is unclear as the congressional session nears its end.

    every member of the GOP is knee deep in child sex trafficking

    Why do you think the qons had their thought leaders tell all the idiots in their base that Democrats were doing sex-trafficking out of the basement of a basementless pizza parlor?

    It’s always projection.
