00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:08,039
Speaker 1: Welcome back to this Real America, Real America's Voice news break.

2
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:11,399
Speaker 1: I'm Terrence Bates. The House Ethics Committee is expected to

3
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 1: reverse course and release its report into allegations of misconduct

4
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 1: involving now former Florida Congressman Matt Gates. That report is

5
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: expected to be made public after the House's final day

6
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:25,799
Speaker 1: of votes and as lawmakers leave Washington. House Ethics Committee

7
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: members reportedly held a secret vote earlier this month to

8
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 1: release that report, after publicly saying the details of the

9
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,160
Speaker 1: investigation would not be released because Gates was no longer

10
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,600
Speaker 1: a member of Congress and Congress thus no longer had jurisdiction.

11
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: Today's revelation indicates that some Republicans on the committee apparently

12
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,559
Speaker 1: had a change of heart and sided with Democrats in

13
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: order to release the document. Responding to the reporting this

14
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: morning on x, Gates writing, I was charged with nothing,

15
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: fully exonerated, not even a campaign finance violation, and the

16
00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 1: people investigating me hated me. I've had no chance to

17
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: even confront any accusers. I've never been charged, I've never

18
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 1: been sued. Instead, House Ethics will reportedly post a report

19
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: online that I have no opportunity to debate or rebut

20
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: as a former member of the body, He writes, will

21
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: of course continue to follow this story as it continues

22
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: to develop. In the meantime, let's get you back to
