Two women have provided House ethics investigators with photos and evidence claiming they were paid over $10,000 by former Rep. Matt Gaetz for sex. Their lawyer stated this includes images from a 2019 trip to New York. The women allege Gaetz covered their travel costs and sent them selfies. They also testified about sending nude photos to him, sometimes at his request. Gaetz has denied any wrongdoing. Gaetz recently resigned from Congress after being nominated for attorney general by President-elect Donald Trump. The House Ethics Committee is considering releasing its report on the investigation, which includes allegations of sexual misconduct.
