Trump transition live updates: Trump names longtime ally Brooke Rollins as secretary of agriculture

The top Democrat on the House Ethics Committee -- Pennsylvania Rep. Susan Wild -- told reporters Monday that she believes the committee's report on former Rep. Matt Gaetz should be disclosed to the public.

"You either are going to disclose it or you're not going to disclose it. So, and there's plenty of precedents in the Ethics Committee to disclose the report even after a member has resigned," Wild said.

Wild, who is leaving office at the end of this session, said it'll take "one or more" Republicans to join Democrats on the committee to achieve a majority vote to release the report.

Asked if that's a possibility, Wild said she hasn't talked to all of the members and doesn't know, but she stressed that all eight members of the ethics panel now have access to the draft report.

"I believe there will be a unanimous Democratic consensus that it should be released," she added.

Wild said there is a scheduled committee meeting on Wednesday, but said it "remains to be seen" what the chairman's agenda is.

"But I believe we should vote on whether we are to disclose it (Gaetz report) or not, and we'll see what happens after that," she said.

House Ethics Committee Chairman Michael Guest, R-Miss., told reporters Monday that he has read the Gaetz report but declined to comment further due to the confidentiality of the committee.

Trump announced Monday he is nominating former Wisconsin Rep. Sean Duffy for transportation secretary.

The position requires Senate confirmation.

"He will prioritize Excellence, Competence, Competitiveness and Beauty when rebuilding America's highways, tunnels, bridges and airports," Trump said in a statement. "He will ensure our ports and dams serve our Economy without compromising our National Security, and he will make our skies safe again by eliminating DEI for pilots and air traffic controllers."

Duffy co-hosts "The Bottom Line" on Fox Business and is a Fox News contributor.

One of President-elect Donald Trump's first moves after winning another four years in the White House was to make a demand for "recess appointments."

It's now clear why.

His Cabinet picks of Fox News host Pete Hegseth for defense secretary and former congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard for director of national intelligence raised eyebrows and alarms. But his selection of now former GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz for attorney general prompted audible gasps from House Republicans huddled behind closed doors and later public bewilderment from some GOP senators.

ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl reports Trump will move full steam ahead, seeing the nominations as a critical test of loyalty for the new Republican leadership on Capitol Hill.

An attorney representing two women who testified before the House Ethics Committee told ABC News in an exclusive interview former Rep. Matt Gaetz paid both his adults clients for sex.

Florida attorney Joel Leppard told ABC News' Juju Chang that one of his clients also witnessed Gaetz having sex with a third woman -- who was then 17 years old -- at a house party in Florida.

"She testified [that] in July of 2017, at this house party, she was walking out to the pool area, and she looked to her right, and she saw Representative Gaetz having sex with her friend, who was 17," Leppard said.
