Matt Gaetz meets with Senate Republicans to seek support for attorney general nomination

Former Rep. Matt Gaetz is meeting with Senate Republicans to gain support for his nomination as attorney general, following Donald Trump's endorsement. This comes amid ongoing investigations into allegations of sexual misconduct and drug use against him. Gaetz, accompanied by Vice President-elect JD Vance, is engaging with key senators, including members of the Judiciary Committee, which will oversee his confirmation hearings. He needs majority support in the Senate, which will have a Republican majority next year. The House Ethics Committee is expected to release a report on Gaetz's alleged misconduct, which he has denied. Some senators express concerns about the confirmation process, drawing parallels to past contentious hearings, while others emphasize the need for a fair evaluation.
