Republicans on the House Ethics Committee fell in line behind GOP leaders and voted not to release the results of their investigation into Donald Trump's attorney general pick, Matt Gaetz, despite growing calls from the Senate GOP to make the findings public ahead of his confirmation hearing.

The GOP's decision to block the findings " against the will of Democrats on the panel " raises major questions about what happens to the highly secretive information that the ethics panel has already collected on Gaetz.

- he's incredibly incompetent.

His only saving grace, really. I expect he will accomplish exactly as much as he did with his Border Wall, and having Mexico pay for it.

I'm more concerned with people in his orbit hiding in his shadow and doing stuff very competently.

I remember when an overly enthusiastic scream on the campaign trail was a damning action.

Then we graduated to grey poupon mustard and tan suits.

Which inevitably led to venmoing underage women money to have drug-fueled sex parties.

The linear collapse of our nation is incredible to watch...

Seems to me this is a play to get Gaetz through confirmation.

It's definitely possible although I saw that Cronyn said the Senate will demand a copy of the report. Advise and consent can include simply not putting a candidate to a vote.

The Senate won't get a say if Trump recesses them to make his appointments.
