“house ‘ethics’ committee will ‘likely release [fraudulent] Gaetz report’” –breitbart

“(breitbart) house ethics committee chairman Michael Guest (uniparty-ms) signaled his committee is likely to ignore speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-la) recommendation to withhold releasing its investigation of Matt Gaetz (R-fl).

“Matt Gaetz, who stepped down after President-elect Donald Trump announced his nomination for attorney general, is no longer a member of the house and therefore no longer under the committee’s purview. Johnson has openly opposed the release of the report and urged the committee to withhold it, a sentiment he relayed personally to Guest over the weekend, the chairman told politico.

“‘I appreciate Mike reaching out,’ Guest told politico. “I don’t see it having an impact on what we as a committee ultimately decide.”

“the committee meets wednesday, where it is expected to discuss whether or not to release its report on Gaetz.”

abc IS AFTER MATT GAETZ TOO. DOCUMENTS SHOW $10,000 IN PAYMENTS TO TWO FEMALES--WHO WERE OVER 18;"NO CRIME,"SAYS TRUMP SPOKESMAN

(abc noise)The House Ethics Committee obtained records, including a check and records of Venmo payments, that appear to show that then-Rep. Matt Gaetz paid more than $10,000 to two women who were later witnesses in sexual misconduct probes conducted by both the House and the Justice Department, according to documents obtained by ABC News.

The Venmo records show that between July 2017 and late January 2019, Gaetz -- who was first elected in 2016 -- allegedly made 27 Venmo payments totaling $10,224.02 to the two witnesses, who were over the age of 18 at the time.

The payments, which sources said were displayed during closed-door testimony, ranged from $100 to more than $700 each.

The Justice Department spent years probing sexual misconduct allegations against Gaetz, as well as allegations of obstruction of justice, before informing Gaetz last year that it would not bring charges. Gaetz has long denied any wrongdoing related to the allegations investigated during the congressional and Justice Department probes.

"The Justice Department received access to roughly every financial transaction Matt Gaetz ever undertook and came to the conclusion that he committed no crime," Trump transition spokesperson Alex Pfeiffer said in response to ABC News' reporting. "These leaks are meant to undermine the mandate from the people to reform the Justice Department."

GRA:If the House Ethics Committee releases their report(and this abc story is true),Gaetz will be embarrassed(or not). Will it be enough to force Trump to give up on a Gaetz nomination?

Only Trump knows for sure.

MTG DEMANDS REPUBLICANS RELEASE ALL ETHICS PROBES--IF THEY RELEASE MATT GAETZ'S--INCLUDING SECRET SEX PAYOFFS FROM YOUR "FAVORITE POLITICIANS".

(Breitbart)Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) slammed her Republican colleagues for talking about releasing ethics reports related to former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), telling them to “put it all out there.”

In a post on X, Greene stated that if her Republican “colleagues in the House and Senate” were going to release ethics reports “and rip apart” people from their party that President-elect Donald Trump had selected to be in his cabinet, then they should “put it ALL out there.”

Trump recently announced that Gaetz was his pick to serve as the Attorney General in his upcoming administration.


“For my Republican colleagues in the House and Senate, if we are going to release ethics reports and rip apart our own that Trump has appointed, then put it ALL out there for the American people to see,” Green wrote. “Yes.. all the ethics reports and claims including the one I filed.”

Greene continued: “all your sexual harassment and assault claims that were secretly settled paying off victims with tax payer money the entire Jeffrey Epstein files, tapes, recordings, witness interviews but not just those, there’s more, Epstein wasn’t/isn’t the only asset. If we’re going to dance, let’s all dance in the sunlight. I’ll make sure we do.”

GRA: It must be one constant orgy in D.C.,but for God's sake,please redact the Grassley,Pelosi,Schumer,Waters,Walz etal.stuff before releasing it to the public. I beg you.

GAETZ REPORT WILL NOT BE RELEASED THIS MONTH--DEMS WILL TRY AGAIN IN DECEMBER

(abc7)WASHINGTON -- The House Ethics Committee voted Wednesday against releasing its report on Rep. Matt Gaetz after multiple rounds of votes, a source told ABC News. All Republicans on the committee voted against its release, the source said.

The committee voted against releasing the report on Wednesday, but to complete it and meet again in December, sources said.

Gaetz resigned from the House last week after President-elect Donald Trump picked him as his nominee to be attorney general.


Leaving the meeting, Republican Rep. Michael Guest, the committee chairman, told reporters, "There was not an agreement to release the report." Republican member Rep. David Joyce would only say that Guest and ranking Democrat Rep. Susan Wild of Pennsylvania are expected to release a statement. Other members refused to answer questions.

But Wild later told ABC News that she plans to release her own statement.


"It was a full-throated meeting, it was a robust discussion," Wild told reporters leaving her office, but she would not say if there was a vote on the report.

A majority of the five Democrats and five Republicans on the committee must approve the report's public disclosure. In other words, at least one Republican must break party ranks to join Democrats to force its release.

Guest told reporters, "I can't discuss anything we may or may not be taking up today" as he entered the room.

Meanwhile, Democratic Rep. Sean Casten of Illinois plans to introduce a privileged resolution to try to force the Ethics Committee to release the report.

Under House rules, once the resolution is introduced, the House will have to take it up within two legislative days. GOP leadership will decide when it's brought up for a vote. Republicans will attempt to block the effort but it's unclear how this will play out.
