Central to the dispute is whether Gaetz invited guests to Dorworth’s home for the event in question on July 15, 2017. The report cites a gate log and deposition records to support its claims, but Dorworth’s lawyer vehemently denies these details. “Mr. Dorworth’s deposition transcript does not support this statement in your report, and it should be retracted immediately,” the letter asserts. Furthermore, entry logs reportedly show no record of Gaetz being on the property that evening, challenging the report’s claims of his presence.
Another significant issue is the alleged misrepresentation of cell phone records. According to Dorworth’s lawyer, the report incorrectly states that he was confronted with these records during his deposition. “As an attendee at Mr. Dorworth’s deposition, I can assure you he was never ‘confronted with any cell phone records,’” the lawyer said, adding that these records were marked as “Attorneys Eyes Only” and were not discussed with his client.
The letter also criticizes the committee for including what the lawyer describes as “ridiculous conclusions” based on these unverified details. Dorworth, reportedly “mortified” by these inaccuracies, has called for immediate corrections.
A third area of contention revolves around the Ethics Committee’s handling of Dorworth’s willingness to provide additional testimony. The report claims that Dorworth’s counsel did not respond to requests for clarification about his whereabouts. However, Dorworth’s attorney insists that his client agreed to testify again on September 6, 2024, but never received a follow-up from the committee.
The backlash against the Ethics Committee report has fueled skepticism about its broader claims and the motivations behind its release. Hemingway emphasized the severity of the alleged falsehoods, stating on X (formerly Twitter), “The House ‘Ethics’ Committee is caught here just flat out lying about three things in its report on Matt Gaetz. (In addition to all the other alleged falsehoods).”

While the political storm continues, Gaetz has found a new platform at One America News Network (OAN), where he will host a primetime show. “We’ve been big fans of Matt Gaetz from day one. We admire his leadership and authenticity, and we’re confident he’ll really connect with our viewers,” OAN anchor Dan Ball said in a statement announcing the partnership.
As questions swirl around the credibility of the House Ethics Committee report, the narrative surrounding Matt Gaetz continues to evolve. The emerging discrepancies could have significant implications for the committee’s reputation and the political landscape at large, underscoring the need for transparency and accountability in such investigations.
