The House Ethics Committee is meeting to decide whether to release a report on their investigation into former Rep. Matt Gaetz. Comcast is expected to announce a spinoff of its cable networks, including MSNBC and E!, into a separate company. Susan Smith, who gained infamy for killing her two sons 30 years ago, is up for parole. The House Ethics Committee has been investigating Gaetz for allegations of sexual misconduct and other improprieties. Gaetz has denied the allegations, and some Senate members want to review the report before a confirmation hearing for Gaetz as Attorney General. Despite objections from House Speaker Mike Johnson, there is precedent for releasing reports after a member resigns. Meanwhile, Trump is pushing for support for his Cabinet nominations. In other news, Comcast is expected to announce a spinoff of its cable networks, and the U.S. embassy in Kyiv has closed due to a threat of significant air attack. Smith’s case will be considered by a parole board, years after her confession to killing her sons.
