The U.S. House of Representatives Ethics Committee has launched an investigation into a tweet sent by Congressman Matt Gaetz in February to President Donald Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen. In the tweet Gaetz suggested that Cohen, who is married, had girlfriends and some Democrats have accused Gaetz of trying to threaten, intimidate, harass, or otherwise improperly influence Cohen ahead of his testimony before Congress. The Ethics Committee said that establishing an Investigative Subcommittee does not necessarily indicate that any violation has occurred.
