Last Thursday, The Gateway Pundit’s Cristina Laila wrote about the latest attacks on Pete Hegseth, the honorable veteran and FOX and Friends Weekend host who was chosen to lead the Department of Defense under the new Trump administration.
Since his nomination by President Trump, Hegseth has been the victim of several bogus and presumptive claims to derail his nomination.
On Thursday, Vanity Fair published a hit piece on Pete and an alleged affair he had with a woman back in 2017 in Monterey, California.
Citing two sources, Vanity Fair reported that Trump’s newly appointed Chief of Staff, Susie Wiles, was briefed about a sexual misconduct allegation involving Pete Hegseth
“According to the transition source, the allegation is serious enough that Wiles and Trump’s lawyers spoke to Hegseth about it on Thursday. A source with knowledge of the meeting said that Hegseth said the allegation stemmed from a consensual encounter and characterized the episode as he-said, she-said.” Vanity Fair reported.
Pete Hegseth’s attorney Timothy Parlatore told Vanity Fair: “This allegation was already investigated by the Monterey police department and they found no evidence for it.”
It is clear from the Vanity Fair hit piece that someone inside the Trump Transition team has a personal gripe against Pete Hegseth and is leaking information to the press in order to ruin Pete’s nomination. As far as we are concerned, the only villain in this hit piece is the Trump Transition Team leaker.
