Gaetz's DOJ Role Sparks Controversy Amid Past Investigation

Matt Gaetz, a staunch Trump ally and former congressman, has been nominated by President-elect Trump to lead the Justice Department as Attorney General, despite previously being under investigation for sex trafficking. The investigation, which ended without charges, and ongoing scrutiny by the House Ethics Committee over allegations of sexual misconduct, could complicate his Senate confirmation. Gaetz has denied all allegations and expressed readiness to reform the Justice Department, aligning with Trump's agenda to combat what they perceive as a 'weaponized' government.
