If he was innocent, they would release the report. There's only one reason why it would ever be up for debate.

They're still in the "it didn't happen" phase. Next week they'll admit it happened but it was consensual and the media is biased for bringing it up
Someone needs to leak this shit asap
If epstein was alive, trump would appoint epstein as AG so he can dismiss the charges on himself. 🤡
Trump definitely has nothing to do with Epstein not being alive any more...
AP news is clearly not hiring the best editors anymore.
The word ethics in House "Ethics" Committee was not put between quotation marks at any point in the article.
Oh shit, you got me for a second.
Cowards.
House Ethics Committee Republicans temporarily blocked releasing findings from a probe into allegations of sexual misconduct and other accusations...Gaetz denies the allegations, including claims he had sex with a 17-year-old.
What's the big deal? Was he found innocent, like he says he is? Cool, release it. Something something if he has nothing to hide.
Or was he found guilty? Cool, release it.
I Understand. I don't know why the Party AGAINST Pedophiles would want to Exonerate America's FUTURE AG who's being accused of Pedophilia and Sex Trafficking either!
Because they're not actually against pedophiles. They are pedophiles, but they can't admit that. So they claim other people are pedophiles, like transgenders, and use that to shift the conversation away from the real issues. So were instead having to deal with defending baseless accusations with no proof, while they slip through in the chaos.
And since the media has abandoned any semblance of journalistic integrity under their oligarch owners, they are failing their duty to accurately educate the populace on both current and past events like they once did fairly reliably.
I'm not advocating for it, but how has no one been punched or slapped senselessly yet? I don't think I could show this kind of restrain around such blatant, malicious, bad-faith actors. I don't know if I commend or question this level of restraint.
We need to be more French.
Then we get Napolian, and we do not want that...wait :(
"For now" as though they are ever going to grow a conscience.
Of course, after media attention does down they will just silently drop it.
Anyone on that committee that cares about justice should leak it.
donvict has a couple months to ramp up the insanity so that matt 'i pay children for sex' gaetz for ag isn't the worst thing on the menu.
The no ethics committee
What does the right always say about privacy: if you got nothing to hide you got nothing to worry about?
Put it out there. Let’s see.
