The House Ethics panel secretly voted to release a ‘damaging’ lawfare report of Matt Gaetz before the end of this Congress, according to CNN.
The panel previously voted not to release the report after Gaetz resigned from Congress last month.
Earlier this month the House of Representatives voted to block resolutions by Democrats to force the House Ethics Committee from releasing their report on Gaetz.
CNN reported:
The House Ethics Committee secretly voted earlier this month to release its report into the conduct of former Rep. Matt Gaetz before the end of this Congress, according to multiple sources with knowledge of the matter.
The report is now expected to be made public after the House’s final day of votes this year as lawmakers leave Washington for the holidays, those sources said.
The vote, which has not previously been reported, amounts to a stark reversal for the panel after it had voted along party lines in late November not to release the results of the investigation. The decision to release the report suggests that some Republicans ultimately decided to side with Democrats on the matter, and it is unclear if the committee will once again change course now that it has voted.
When the committee voted last month to shelve the report, Gaetz was President-elect Donald Trump’s choice to be attorney general. Since then, Gaetz withdrew himself from consideration for the Senate-confirmed post, though he maintains frosty relations with many in his party and is still active in GOP politics.
The House Ethics Committee was going to release a “damaging” report on Matt Gaetz last month, but because he resigned from Congress, the committee lost jurisdiction.
Ever since then, the Democrats have been working to release the report amid damaging leaks.
The Deep State has been selectively leaking parts of the report to the media and a ‘hacker’ also obtained a trove of documents from the ‘damaging’ report.
Matt Gaetz resigned from Congress last month after President Trump announced his nomination for US Attorney General.
The House Ethics Committee’s years-long investigation into Matt Gaetz over allegations of sexual misconduct ended after the lawmaker resigned from Congress.
The Gateway Pundit reported on the Ethics Committee’s revival of the junk allegations against Gaetz, even after the Biden DOJ exonerated Gaetz of criminal wrongdoing and dropped the charges in February 2023.
The investigation was reopened in 2023 as Gaetz ramped up challenges to former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, who was later ousted by Gaetz’s Motion to Vacate the chair. Later, when Gaetz threatened to bring a Motion to Vacate against McCarthy in October 2023, McCarthy’s RINO allies began threatening to expel Gaetz based on the Committee’s investigation.
Matt Gaetz withdrew his nomination for US Attorney General and hinted he would be helping Trump from a different perch.
Matt Gaetz responded to the Ethics Panel’s decision to release the report.
The Biden/Garland DOJ spent years reviewing allegations that I committed various crimes.
I was charged with nothing: FULLY EXONERATED. Not even a campaign finance violation. And the people investigating me hated me.
Then, the very “witnesses” DOJ deemed not-credible were…
