Matt Gaetz, the former Florida congressman, faces a congressional ethics investigation following serious allegations of sexual misconduct, drug use, and bribery. Initially nominated by President Trump for Attorney General, Gaetz withdrew amid pressure and controversy over the claims, including accusations of having sex with a minor. Despite a U.S. Department of Justice inquiry that did not lead to charges, his ethics investigation remains ongoing. His resignation has complicated potential findings release, as Congress can no longer conduct its investigation on former members.
