Matt Gaetz Posts On X ".., 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 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.
