Matt Gaetz Faces New Allegations of Paying for Sex and Underage Involvement

Former Rep. Matt Gaetz, nominated by Donald Trump for attorney general, is accused of paying two women to travel to New York for sex in 2019, according to their attorney. The women testified to a House Ethics Committee that Gaetz paid for their travel and sex, and provided text messages and Venmo records as evidence. Despite a Justice Department investigation, no charges were filed against Gaetz, who denies the allegations. The women claim their interactions were consensual but influenced by drugs, and they have received FBI-funded counseling.
