Matt Gaetz ethics report says his drug use and sex with a minor violated state laws - CBS News

Former Rep. Matt Gaetz, a Florida Republican who briefly stood to become President-elect Donald Trump's nominee to be attorney general, was found by congressional ethics investigators to have paid numerous women — including a 17-year-old girl — for sex, and to have purchased and used illegal drugs, including from his Capitol Hill office, according to a final draft of a comprehensive investigative report obtained by CBS News.
Those were among the findings of the long-running investigation by the House Ethics Committee into Gaetz, which concluded the former Florida congressman violated multiple state laws related to sexual misconduct while in office.
"The Committee determined there is substantial evidence that Representative Gaetz violated House Rules and other standards of conduct prohibiting prostitution, statutory rape, illicit drug use, impermissible gifts, special favors or privileges, and obstruction of Congress," the 37-page report concludes.

He looks like a creep to be honest with you. Wouldn't shock me if he's truly guilty of this.

Kudos to him for standing his ground and admitting that *gasp* he was a party animal back in the day. Again, nothing new under the sun in politics. A lot of these guys are like that. As long as it was consensual and within proper law and order it's really not something we should continue to harp on.
