Summary
The House Ethics Committee found “substantial evidence” that former GOP congressman Matt Gaetz engaged in statutory rape, prostitution, drug use, and obstruction of Congress.
The report alleges Gaetz paid a 17-year-old for sex in 2017. Gaetz denies the claims, citing no criminal charges from a prior DOJ investigation.
He filed for a restraining order to block the report’s release, calling it “unprecedented overreach.”
Despite GOP resistance, the bipartisan committee voted to publish the findings after a four-year probe into alleged misconduct, including payments tied to drug-fueled sex parties.
Trump just got reelected after 4 years to think about it. I wouldn’t be too sure that Gaetz is done.
Teflon Gaetz doesn’t have the same ring to it.
No, but Matt Raepz does.
