Minutes before CNN published a report revealing that Matt Gaetz had a second, previously unreported sexual encounter with the same minor, Matt Gaetz dropped his bid to be the Attorney General of the United States.

CNN’s reporting that the minor, who was a 17 years old at the time, testified that the second sexual encounter included another adult woman — the homeowner — who watched while they had sex on an air hockey table.

Gaetz also resigned from the House of Representatives last week. It is, however, worth noting that Pete Hegseth is still under consideration for Secretary of Defense despite a police report being released yesterday detailing the alleged rape of a woman at a conservative event.
