With the news of Hegseth being involved in a sexual assault scandal, that brings the total up to four, by my count, in this administration.
Hegseth
RFK
Gaetz
And of course, Mango Mussolini himself is an adjudicated rapist.

I’ll ask this again. How do we look women in the face and expect them to feel safe? How do we expect them to come forward and accuse an attacker in this climate? I’ve given serious thought about moving. If I had daughters, I’d already be gone.

Awful: Senate investigations into Trump's solicitation of $1 billion from Big Oil and Jared Kushner's financial dealings with Saudis will now hit a wall with GOP control, Dems tell me. We're headed for unchecked elite corruption under Trump. New piece from me...

Well, he did promise to “protect” women whether they like it or not. Maybe someone should have asked him for a definition of protection.

Trump’s transition team caught off guard by Hegseth allegation​

“… Trump had announced he was tapping Hegseth as his next secretary of defense after only days of considering the veteran-turned-Fox News host and very little internal vetting. Within 48 hours, the heads of Trump’s transition team were brought a complaint about a sexual assault allegation regarding Hegseth.

The campaign was brought information that aligns with what Monterey, California, police described as an investigation into “an alleged sexual assault” involving Hegseth on October 8, 2017.


Hegseth was a speaker at a conference held by the California Federation of Republican Women at a hotel during the timeframe when the alleged assault took place, according to photos of the event posted on Facebook. Hegseth has not been charged in any criminal case or named as a defendant in any civil lawsuit filed in Monterey County since 2017, and his attorney denied any wrongdoing.

But the nature of the allegations caused incoming chief of staff Susie Wiles to question Hegseth during a call Thursday, a source told CNN. Wiles asked Hegseth if there were any other issues the team should be aware of moving forward. …”

You don’t have a lot of credibility claiming you were ambushed by any such claims when you publicly disdain and opt out of formal vetting.
