Our Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is the largest investment in rebuilding our nation’s roads and bridges in 70 years.

We have announced over 66,000 projects in every state across the country, and these projects will improve our communities for decades to come.

@Laurie2534 Also, is a white ipod lying on the ground something you can readily identify as belonging to your roommate? Are they unique in some way? I expect ultimately there would have been DNA evidence found on it to confirm it was hers, but her roommate would have no way of knowing that.

[Optimistic Justice Warriette @RozoRuminations]

Why isn't this Laken Riley case pled out? Trial is by judge not jury. Death penalty is off the table. Is the Defense contending he did not do it? If not, and this is just a refusal to agree to a plea, it seems like this is more for public immigration outrage rather than justice.

My oldest son got vaccinated and later was diagnosed with autism. My middle and youngest sons were vaccinated, and were not diagnosed with autism. The reason for this is that vaccines do not cause autism. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

[The okayest poster there is @ok_post_guy]

RFK Jr saying he never knew anybody who was autistic as a kid is particularly galling considering his aunt Eunice founded a day camp for kids with autism in 1962 and founded the Special Olympics in 1968

Just a completely dishonest POS

[The Political HQ @ThePoliticalHQ]

Trump nominates Gaetz so he can resign from the House and because of that, the Ethics Committee drops its probe into his child sex trafficking allegations.

It doesn’t get more “swampy” than that.

[Protect Kamala Harris ✊ @DisavowTrump20]

🚨NEW: Senate Judiciary Chair Dick Durbin calls on the House Ethics Committee to share the Matt Gaetz report with Senate Judiciary Committee.

RETWEET to thank Senator Durbin for standing up for our democracy!

[Tristan Snell @TristanSnell]

BREAKING - Matt Gaetz resigns from the House, effective today

He just won re-election to House - and can’t be AG unless confirmed by Senate next year

So why now? Because House Ethics Committee is about to make decision on Gaetz’s alleged underage sex trafficking - in TWO DAYS

[Linus Fan @LinusAlso]

aaronparnas: BREAKING: The attorney for the teenager at the center of the Matt Gaetz allegations calls on the House Ethics Committee to release the report against Gaetz and says there are witnesses.

Repost this so everyone sees.

[hasanabi @hasanthehun]

i think the main issue with matt gaetz is that there's a credible pedophilia investigation that caused him to resign before the house ethics committee voted to release it...

[ABC News Live @ABCNewsLive]

EXCLUSIVE: The woman at the center of the DOJ's probe of Rep. Matt Gaetz testified to the House Ethics Committee that Gaetz had sex with her when she was 17 years old, sources say.

President-elect Trump nominated Gaetz for attorney general Wednesday.

[Palmer Report @PalmerReport]

Matt Gaetz just resigned from the House. He’s hoping to put to bed the Ethics Committee probe while he tries to get confirmed as Attorney General. But the Ethics Committee will give the dirt to the media anyway. If we tank his AG nomination, Gaetz is out of government entirely.

[Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal]

I’ll demand release of investigative findings & conclusions concerning Matt Gaetz from the House Ethics Committee. I hope Republican Judiciary Committee members will join me in seeking this highly serious, significant information.

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

Someone on the House ethics committee should leak the Gaetz sex trafficking report 👀

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: Senators are now demanding the release of findings and conclusions from the Matt Gaetz House Ethics Committee investigation. This is huge.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

BREAKING NEWS!!! THIS IS DAMNING!!!

ABC News exclusively reports that the woman involved in the Justice Department investigation into sex trafficking allegations against Rep. Matt Gaetz sat for multiple days of testimony in front of the House Ethics Committee and testified that Gaetz had sex with her when she was a minor in high school at age 17.

The House Ethics Committee also subpoenaed Gaetz's former girlfriend for testimony and obtained a sworn written statement where she lists Gaetz as one of the attendees at a party in July 2017, where dugs were present and which was attended by the woman who Gaetz allegedly had sex with when she was a minor. Gaetz was already an elected member of Congress at the time.

The House ethics Committee also obtained written testimony from another woman who said that she was at a party in July of 2017 in Florida that Gaetz attended, which was also attended by the woman who was a minor at the time and where drugs, including cocaine, were present.

Another woman told the committee that she was paid by Gaetz for sex. Gaetz has long denied all of the allegations, but the committee subpoenaed the company Venmo and obtained records of some payments made by Gaetz.

RELEASE THE HOUSE ETHICS COMMITTEE REPORT ON GAETZ NOW.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

BREAKING: The woman at the center of the DOJ's probe of Matt Gaetz testified to the House Ethics Committee that he had sex with her when she was 17 years old, ABC News report.

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

So to enable Matt Gaetz to avoid a damning House Ethics Committee report outlining Gaetz’s illegal behavior, Trump just made Gaetz the top law enforcement officer in the country.

The DC swamp in action.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Durbin: The timing of Mr. Gaetz's resignation from the house raises serious questions about the contents of the house ethics committee report. We cannot allow this information from a bipartisan investigation to be hidden from the American people.
