The Florida Bar has opened an investigation into a tweet by Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., about Michael Cohen, which suggested that President Trump’s former attorney had been unfaithful to his wife. “The Florida Bar is aware of the comments made in a tweet yesterday by Rep. Matt Gaetz, who is a Florida Bar member, and I can confirm we have opened an investigation,” Francine Andía Walker, the Florida Bar’s communications director, said in a statement to Fox News. "We’re witness testing, not witness tampering," Gaetz said. I’m sorry.”Gaetz’s tweet came a day before Cohen publicly testified before the House Oversight Committee. Rep. Kathleen Rice, D-N.Y., has asked the House Ethics Committee to investigate Gaetz’s tweet.
