Gaetz-gate: Navigating the President-elect's most baffling Cabinet pick
Fox News
While former Rep. Matt Gaetz, R.-Fla., may be out of Congress, Congress certainly isn't done with him – and all eyes are on the report the House Ethics Committee is sitting on.
What wasn’t known at the time was that the House Ethics Committee was on the precipice of releasing a report investigating allegations of "sexual misconduct" and "illicit drug use" by Gaetz. Gaetz stopped cooperating with the House investigation over the summer. The FBI probed Gaetz for years – but dropped its inquiry in February. Chad Pergram currently serves as a senior congressional correspondent for FOX News Channel (FNC). He joined the network in September 2007 and is based out of Washington, D.C.
The Ethics Committee dashed a planned meeting where it likely would have published information about its inquest regarding Gaetz on Friday. But since Gaetz is no longer a Member of Congress, the committee supposedly is powerless to act.
