US House speaker Mike Johnson on Sunday insisted that the chamber's ethics committee should not release a report on alleged sexual improprieties by Donald Trump's nominee for attorney general, Matt Gaetz, even as Democrats castigated Gaetz as unqualified and "a troll."
"It should not come out," Johnson told CNN. "And why? Because Matt Gaetz resigned from Congress. He is no longer a member. There's a very important protocol and tradition and rule."
