Summary
Sen. Lindsey Graham defended Matt Gaetz, Trump’s nominee for attorney general, saying allegations of sexual misconduct should not disqualify him based on “a media report.”
Gaetz denies the claims, which include sexual misconduct with a high school student, drug use, and improper gifts, asserting they were part of an extortion plot.
While the FBI convicted someone for extortion related to the allegations, Gaetz was not charged.
Some Senate Republicans, like Sen. John Cornyn, are pressing for the release of a bipartisan House Ethics Committee report on the matter.
WTF does disqualify anyone for anything at this point? Let me guess… being a Democrat? Not bending over quickly enough when Trump walks up behind you?

…a bipartisan House Ethics Committee report…
See, thing is, that’s not a media report.
LOL, this is the party that was demanding a long form birth certificate from Obama based on their crazy conspiracies.
Lindsey Graham can always be counted on to suck up to whichever Republican is currently getting the most headlines.
I actually totally agree, here… Instead of relying on various media spin, we should be basing our opinions on the official report from the House Ethics Committee. Release the fuckin’ report.
How about an FBI investigation with Venmo receipts?
