The findings of a House Ethics Committee investigation into Matt Gaetz have been revealed by CBS News.
"Former Rep. Matt Gaetz, a Florida Republican who briefly stood to become President-elect Donald Trump's nominee to be attorney general, was found by congressional ethics investigators to have paid numerous women — including a 17-year-old girl — for sex, and to have purchased and used illegal drugs, including from his Capitol Hill office, according to a final draft of a comprehensive investigative report obtained by CBS News."
Prior to the reports expected release, Gaetz withdrew as President-elect Donald Trump's attorney general nominee.
Gaetz responded to the findings on X:
"Giving funds to someone you are dating - that they didn’t ask for - and that isn’t “charged” for sex is now prostitution?!? There is a reason they did this to me in a Christmas Eve-Eve report and not in a courtroom of any kind where I could present evidence and challenge witnesses. This is testimony from one of the alleged “prostitutes” that you won’t see in the report!"
