Hegseth Paid $50,000 To A Woman Alleging 2017 Sexual Assault
Summary
Despite opposition from Democrats as well as Republican Senators Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski, it is looking almost certain that by tomorrow night that former Fox Weekend Morning host Pete Hegseth will be running the Defense Department. Today, CNN learned that Hegseth told the Senate Armed Services Committee that he paid $50,000 as part of a confidentiality agreement to a woman who alleged he sexually assaulted her back in 2017. Manu Raju has the latest from Capitol Hill. Plus, President Trump has now ended Secret Service protection for two of his former top officials. The question tonight: Did he do it because they've spoken up against him? Two CNN analysts join the program to discuss, former Deputy Director of National Intelligence Beth Sanner and former Secret Service Agent Jonathan Wackrow.
