Leaders of the ethics committee said in their statement that the committee was reviewing whether Miller “may have engaged in domestic violence and abuse or illegal drug use.” Earlier in the day, Miller said he had requested his own investigation into the allegations made by his ex-wife, Emily Moreno. “This has been brutal beyond comprehension,” he told reporters at the Capitol. Asked about the election implications of the allegations for Republicans, Moreno told reporters, “I don’t care about the politics at all.” And I’m going to let the families figure that out,” Trump told reporters when asked about Miller during an Oval Office event.
