sg.news.yahoo.com

Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee have requested the FBI to provide its complete file on Matt Gaetz, who is nominated for attorney general. This follows serious allegations against him, including sex trafficking a minor. The FBI previously investigated Gaetz but did not file charges due to concerns about witness credibility. Gaetz has denied the allegations. The House Ethics Committee had been investigating Gaetz but halted its work after he resigned last week. The committee is now considering whether to release its findings despite opposition from House leadership.
