Florida man Matt Gaetz was chosen by President-elect Donald Trump to serve as the next attorney general on Wednesday — prompting his immediate resignation from the U.S. House of Representatives.

Almost as soon as Gaetz hit the exit doors of the U.S. Capitol Complex, however, a whisper campaign about the four-term lawmaker began.

The abrupt departure was quickly and quietly linked to a long-running investigation by the House Ethics Committee.

Gaetz allegedly resigned just two days before the committee was slated to vote on releasing a “highly-damaging” report about him, according to anonymous sources cited by Punchbowl News.
