Federal Inquiry Traced Matt Gaetz’s Venmo Payments to Women

The ethics report into Gaetz is nothing more than a smear campaign by the Washington establishment who are terrified that nominee will cleanse the systemic corruption and lawfare that has ravaged America. The baseless allegations against Gaetz, which have already been dropped by the DOJ, is a perfect example of the political witch hunting that the Trump administration and his nominees are on a mission to end.
Withholding the ethics report compromises the Senate's constitutional duty to properly vet cabinet nominees and conceals critical information about potential criminal conduct. The documented evidence and witness testimonies must be made available for proper scrutiny of an attorney general nominee – history shows there is precedent of committee's releasing reports on former members of Congress, and Gaetz should not be allowed to shirk responsibility for his alleged actions.
There is a 55% chance that a Democrat will win the 2028 US Presidential Election, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
