The Senate Ethics Committee has dismissed allegations of misconduct against Arizona Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego. Arizona Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego faces a Department of Justice probe into campaign finance violations despite having been cleared earlier by a Senate committee that reviewed his expenditures, according to a new report. Axios detailed that the investigation originated from a "whistleblower complaint" from Southern California and could weigh on Gallego's political future as he eyes a potential 2028 presidential run and highlights ongoing tensions between the Trump administration and Democratic lawmakers.
