'If members of Congress want to spend their time psychoanalyzing my tweets, it's certainly their prerogative,' Gaetz said in a statement. 'I won't be joining them in the endeavor.'

Representative Matt Gaetz of Florida became the subject of a House Ethics Committee investigation Friday for refusing to cooperate with the panel's request for testimony over an alleged threat he issued to Michael Cohen to reveal embarrassing information about the former Trump attorney.

"If members of Congress want to spend their time psychoanalyzing my tweets, it's certainly their prerogative," he said in a statement."I won't be joining them in the endeavor." That threat led to an eruption of condemnation from lawmakers on Capitol Hill and prompted another member of Congress, who was not named, to issue a complaint to the Ethics Committee on March 13.

Gaetz later said in separate instances that he personally apologized to Cohen and that he did not intend for his original tweet to be viewed as a threat.
