🚨🇺🇸BREAKING: MATT GAETZ WITHDRAWS FROM AG CONSIDERATION

Matt Gaetz:

"I had excellent meetings with Senators yesterday.

I appreciate their thoughtful feedback - and the incredible support of so many.

While the momentum was strong, it is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition.

There is no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle, thus I'll be withdrawing my name from consideration to serve as Attorney General.

Trump's DOJ must be in place and ready on Day 1.

I remain fully committed to see that Donald J. Trump is the most successful President in history.

I will forever be honored that President Trump nominated me to lead the Department of Justice and I'm certain he will Save America."
