Gaetz clearly doesn't want whatever is in his file to come out. And he knows it inevitably would come out if he had confirmation hearings.
So what's next for him - does he try to rescind his pre-emptive resignation from next Congress?
If he tries, then I hope the House Ethics Committee post-emptively (new word!) releases his file from their investigation.
I think the whole ploy was to give him an out to resign before it came out. No chance he was ever getting confirmed, even without the new revelations.
