The DOJ still has yet to criminally charge Matt Gaetz. There have been media reports claiming that the DOJ dropped the case, but this was never verified. In the meantime, ever since Gaetz was largely responsible for ousting Speaker Kevin McCarthy, there has been buzz that House Republicans might use the House Ethics Committee as a way of taking Gaetz down.

To that end, CNN is reporting today that the House Ethics Committee has reached out to the DOJ and to the woman who was allegedly underage sex trafficked by Gaetz. This would suggest that the committee is serious about destroying Gaetz politically, and is setting him up for expulsion.

This comes at a time when the House Republican majority is razor thin to begin with – which suggests that House Republicans really don’t like Matt Gaetz and really want to get rid of him before he can cause any more turmoil from within.

Keep in mind that a House Ethics Committee report is typically the first step in ousting a House member. We saw this with George Santos. Initial efforts to expel him were unsuccessful. But once the committee released a damning report about his scandals, the House then expelled him by an overwhelming vote. So if the House Ethics Committee is serious about releasing a damning report about Gaetz, it could indeed mean his expulsion. Stay tuned.

It's been a tough week, a tough month, a tough year. For all of us. But the fight goes on. Because we know how important this is. Because we care. Because we're the ones who fight. It's you and me. It has been for a decade. And I'm never backing down. But Palmer Report does have operating expenses. And in this uncertain time, I truly need your help. For that reason I've launched the Palmer Report 2025 Operating Expenses Fund. If we can fully fund this, it'll bridge the gap and ensure that Palmer Report can keep fighting now and forever. I'm asking you to contribute what you can to our GoFundMe Page or our PayPal Page, both of which accept debit and credit cards. Thank you.
