Hacker leaks confidential testimony on Matt Gaetz as Trump backs AG nomination

foxnews.com

An unidentified hacker has obtained confidential testimony related to allegations of sexual misconduct against Matt Gaetz. The testimony includes claims from a woman who says she had sex with Gaetz when she was 17 and another who witnessed the encounter. Donald Trump is reportedly supporting Gaetz's nomination for Attorney General, despite the allegations. Trump’s team claims the accusations are baseless and intended to undermine his administration. However, many GOP senators have not committed to supporting Gaetz. The House ethics panel is meeting to discuss the report, which includes new details about Gaetz using his adopted son’s PayPal account to pay one of the women involved. Democrats could potentially block Gaetz's nomination if they secure support from a few GOP senators.
