On Thursday, Matt Gaetz surprised the House Ethics Committee by withdrawing from consideration as President-elect Donald Trump's pick for attorney general. The committee is set to vote on the final report on December 5, following Republican efforts to block the release of damaging findings.
With Gaetz no longer in the running, Democrats fear that the panel's findings may never see the light of day, especially since Republicans were already hesitant to disclose the report. House Ethics Committee Chairman Michael Guest cited that the report is still in the 'final review stages,' which has led to reservations about its release.
