House Speaker Johnson expressed strong concerns about releasing the Ethics Committee's report on Matt Gaetz, warning it could create a 'terrible precedent' for future investigations. He emphasized the importance of maintaining traditional protocols regarding non-members, indicating that releasing such findings could open a Pandora's Box.
In response to CNN's Jake Tapper, Johnson clarified that the Speaker of the House cannot interfere in the Ethics Committee's processes, stating, 'the speaker does not have the authority to stop the release of a report by the ethics committee,' acknowledging past reports have been released despite some hesitation.
