Huge scoop from Jake, Bres and Mel — the House Ethics Committee was scheduled to vote in TWO DAYS to release the “highly damaging” report on its investigation into Matt Gaetz. Gaetz’s resignation means the Ethics panel loses its jurisdiction, effectively ending the probe.

🚨 🚨BREAKING NEWS FROM @PunchbowlNews : Rep. Matt Gaetz's (R-Fla.) resignation from Congress came two days before the House Ethics Committee was set to vote on releasing a “highly damaging” report outlining its investigation into the Republican, according to multiple sources familiar with the probe. The committee planned to vote Friday on releasing the report. Ethics loses its jurisdiction over Gaetz when he leaves Congress. The secretive panel has been investigating Gaetz on and off since 2021. President-elect Donald Trump announced that he would nominate Gaetz to be attorney general Wednesday. @MZanona @bresreports
