Meghan McCain criticizes Matt Gaetz's attorney general nomination and ethics report delay

thedailybeast.com

Meghan McCain expressed strong disapproval of Matt Gaetz's nomination for attorney general, questioning Speaker Mike Johnson's efforts to block the release of a potentially damaging ethics report on Gaetz. She criticized the lack of transparency regarding the nominee's alleged criminal behavior. Her comments followed a harsh critique of Gaetz by her husband, Ben Domenech, who labeled him as a "sex trafficking drug addicted piece of s--t." This criticism reflects broader concerns about Gaetz's controversial past and the implications of his nomination. Despite calls from both political parties for the ethics committee to release its report, the committee has postponed its meeting to vote on the matter. Gaetz resigned from Congress shortly after the nomination announcement, amid ongoing investigations into his conduct.
