Trump Picks Matt Gaetz as Attorney General Amid Allegations Involving a Minor
Nov 18, 2024, 11:10 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Matt Gaetz as the next Attorney General, sparking controversy due to ongoing investigations into allegations of sexual misconduct involving a minor. New details of misconduct leveled against Gaetz, a former Representative, have emerged, escalating concerns ahead of his confirmation. The House Ethics Committee is expected to release a report detailing the allegations, with calls for full transparency from lawmakers and the public. There is speculation that Trump may use a recess appointment to install Gaetz, bypassing Senate confirmation. The Justice Department and House Ethics investigations into Gaetz have intensified since Trump's announcement, raising questions about the suitability of his nomination as the nation's chief law enforcement officer. Critics warn that with Gaetz at Justice, Trump could exert significant control over key federal departments.
