Ethics Chair Removes Committee from Gaetz Investigation
Ethics Chair Removes Committee from Gaetz Investigation
U.S. House Ethics Committee Chair Rep. Michael Guest has retracted his committee’s involvement from the Matt Gaetz investigation.
Summary
House Ethics Committee Chair Rep. Michael Guest has ended the committee’s investigation into former Rep.
Matt Gaetz after Gaetz withdrew from Trump’s attorney general nomination and announced he would not seek reelection.
Gaetz had faced allegations of paying a minor for sex and drug use, as well as federal investigations into sex trafficking and obstruction, though no charges were filed.
The committee’s report remains unreleased, with further review set for Dec. 5. Florida will hold a special election to fill Gaetz’s vacated congressional seat.
If you're wondering why no criminal charges...
Merrick Garland dismissed charges like 9 months ago
41Because the witnesses wouldn't talk. Well, she is now. So why can't we reopen this?
Also, I want to know exactly how Gaetz skated this time. He got serious dirt on other politicians?
18What?
Where have you heard that?
They cooperated against his conspirator, they've had civil suits...
I kind of pay attention to news, so I'd be surprised if I missed something about the victims (no idea why you said witnesses) stopped cooperating for a brief window and Garland immediately dropped charges.
Because man, even if that happened, it still makes no sense to close the case early.
Hey. Maybe I missed something though, I tried to find a source though, and if anything is out there I'm still missing it.
So, can you help me out and provide a source for this:
Because the witnesses wouldn’t talk.
18His dad is absolutely loaded and a big wig in Florida.
Few bucks here and there and bada-bing, no charges.
