Matt Gaetz may be done with the House of Representatives, but his former colleagues aren’t through with him yet.
Lawmakers on Thursday are expected to decide the fate of the long-awaited House ethics report into sexual misconduct allegations against Gaetz, with many pressing for its release even though the Florida Republican has left Congress and withdrawn as President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for attorney general. Gaetz denies the allegations.
The bipartisan committee planned to vote in the afternoon on whether to make public the findings of their yearslong inquiry. If they decide against that disclosure, Democrats are poised to force votes on the House floor requiring the committee to publish the full report.
The fact that there are people who don’t want to release it means it’s pretty damning. You don’t try to bury reports that imply your party member is innocent.
Leak it you cowards.
What’s the point of wasting tax payer dollars on an ethics report you’re going to bury??
The tax payer dollars spent on compiling the report weren’t wasted.
The cost in both salaries and hours of a Congress that’s probably about to adjourn for the year debating the release that should have happened the moment it was completed, on the other hand…
I mean they got Gaetz to resign so they weren’t wasted.
Didn’t he won the re election? He’s going to be there again on the next congress. He basically just took a vacation.
Oh. Then you got me there that was a waste of tax money.
You wanna be the party of law and order. Then this is just part of the order. The law part can only come after.
We all better get tax credits when they don’t release it
