    I think in this case, the house report couldn’t be released close to an election, so since Gaetz had a primary and general election, that delayed it by 5 months at least to be after the election. IMO, resigning or not shouldn’t matter to the report being in the public record.

      Five months is a crazy amount of time to hold something. Five months ago Biden was running for President. I’m not against a general rule that limits when a report is released, but people should who who their candidate is.

        Honestly, I think people can easily sit in jail longer waiting for a trial to see if they should be in jail or not.
