Rep. Matt Gaetz refuses to cooperate with House Ethics Committee's investigation into sexual misconduct and drug use allegations.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) has announced he will no longer cooperate with the House Ethics Committee's investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct and drug use, calling the inquiry a "political payback exercise." Gaetz, an ally of former President Trump, denies the allegations, which include claims he engaged in sexual relations with a minor. The committee has issued a subpoena for his testimony, as the investigation continues amid accusations of obstruction.
