Matt Gaetz visits Capitol Hill to advocate for attorney general nomination as ethics panel reviews allegations

Matt Gaetz visited Capitol Hill to advocate for his nomination as attorney general under President-elect Trump. This comes as a House ethics panel considers releasing a report on his alleged involvement in drugs and sex with young women. Gaetz, accompanied by Vice President-elect JD Vance, urged Republican senators to keep an open mind ahead of his confirmation hearing in early 2025. He faces significant scrutiny due to serious allegations, including interactions with underage escorts. The House Ethics Committee is deliberating whether to make its report public. Some senators are pushing for access to the document, which could impact Gaetz's confirmation process.
