At the confirmation hearing, Democratic Senator Tim Kaine continued to grill Pete Hegseth, the defence minister get of the approaching administration, while refusing to give in. Social media users asked Kaine why he never displayed this spiritual haughty for Doug Emhoff whose first marriage broke because he cheated after asking him about” cheating on” his second wife and then asking him if he actually assaulted any of his ladies.
Bringing up the 2017 incident of sexual abuse, Kaine asked whether Hegseth cheated on his then-wife. Because Hegseth claimed that whatever transpired between him and the person who afterwards expressed his disagreement was mutual. Because he was married to Samatha Deering at the time, Kane inquired whether this meant he cheated on his family. Kaine inquired about the incident when he and his second wife, Samantha Deering, got married, and two weeks before his second wife, Jennifer Rauchet, a former Fox News employee, was expecting.
Hegseth continued that he was falsely accused even though he did not go into the specifics. married to his second wife, Samantha Deering, and two weeks before he had a baby with his previous Fox News partner, Jennifer Rauchet, who would become his second wife.
” I will let your words to speak for themselves”, Hegseth said.
” I assume that in each of your ceremonies, you’ve pledged to be honest to your family”, Kaine said.
Hegseth claimed that he was not a flawless man.
” I have failed in things in my life, and sadly I’m redeemed by my lord and savior, Jesus Christ”, he said.
Kaine finally inquired about whether a sexual assault victim may be barred from the position of security secretary. Hegseth once more claimed that it was a fake fee. And asked whether domestic violence may become disqualifying, Hegseth said that it was a “hypothetical”.
” I don’t think it’s a hypothetical”, Kaine fired up. ” Every day, there is violence against families.” And if you, as a president, are demonstrating an astonishing lack of judgment by saying that natural assault against a marriage should be a disqualifying point for being director of the most powerful nation in the world.
