Yes, corruption. A witness swore under oath that she saw him having sex with the victim who was 17. He continued the sexual relationship and there is evidence of payment.
There are different reasons charges would not have been brought, which may have nothing to do with whether anyone determined that the allegations were false. Insufficient direct evidence, or evidence that might not be admissible in court, or prosecutors' assessment that they might not be able to obtain a conviction. Doesn't mean the sexual assault didn't happen.
@@adamsmith2374 Wrong: A jury never comes back with a verdict of "innocent" -- it's always guilty or "not guilty" -- meaning not proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Doesn't mean the incident didn't occur.
They’re was a police investigation and it concluded these allegations are false. Not there isn’t enough evidence to charge him. The evidence proved the assault claims false. It was a wife that felt guilty about cheating on her husband so she tried to claim rape… Lock her up.

Wow, the the Dem's have never tried this line before have they? Except for everytime they really want to get rid of someone. Thomas, Trump, Kavanaugh, Gaetz, ....
Has any man when asked “Did you sexually assault a woman?” ever said Yes? They will all deny it. It’s also the only crime where the victim has to defend themselves to police, judges and juries.
Has investigative journalism been outlawed like that of the integrity of maintaining innocent until proven in an unbiased court of law to be guilty? Opinion Commentators vailed as truth-seeking reporters are truly blasé.
His version makes no sense. 1) So he corroborates that she confronted him about being inappropriate with women and he tries to reassure that he is a nice guy. There is even a text she sent to her friend calling him a creep. Then a few hours later she's willingly sleeping with him? That makes no sense. If she was creeped out by him the whole day to the point of arguing with him and confronting him why would she willingly sleep him hours later? He's not making sense. 2) Why would she tell the police and nurse she was raped if they had concocted this brilliant story about sleeping in a friend's room? It's not like her husband suspected anything. So why go so far with a rape allegations? She could have made any other excuse instead of something so extreme. 3) He says he didn't want to sleep with her. But then he sleeps with her? Come on man. Hegseth story doesn't add up.
He said it reminds him of what happened to Bret Kavanaugh and that it was a disgrace? Yes, what happened to Bret Kavanaugh - allegations that were not investigated and a sexual predator confirmed to the Supreme Court - and yes, it was a disgrace that that happened.
Matt Gaetz was a perfect selection for his (Trump) goals. Just because there are Republicans who don't support his mandate doesn't mean it was awful judgement. The awful judgement is in the hands of the Republican Senate who wouldn't confirm him. You people forget, Obama hired Holder and Lynch, two people with similar qualifications and one actually called himself "Obama's Wingman" aka his yes-man. If he was a bad pick, so was Holder and he was confirmed. I guess Republicans have higher standards.

This is a married woman, she went to hospital for a grape kit, and she filed a police report. Yeah, shes a total liar huh? Please. This guy is not innocent
As a non US citizen, it really makes me wonder just how, in a land that has millions and millions of educated people who would be capable of doing these essential jobs, and do them with ethics and morals, that the Trump organisation cannot find people who have backgrounds that do not include sexual deviancy or wrong doing. It should be embarrassing to the supporters of this Republican party to have these people lifted up in this government. but, on the other hand, look at the President. (birds of a feather). It shows that Trump really has contempt for the American people, and the American people will learn that quickly.

How about y’all ask the question why did you pay her off? If you know they gonna keep saying as you just said no charges was brought so your next question should be so why did you pay the lady see how easy that is CNN reporters journalist act like y’all give a little bit of a shit.
So both Pete and Matt pulled out.
😂 I see what you did there
no.
These "Allegations" were in 2017. Do you honestly think that if there was any validity to these allegations that he wouldn't have been charged by now?
Yes, corruption. A witness swore under oath that she saw him having sex with the victim who was 17. He continued the sexual relationship and there is evidence of payment.
Many cases like this never get charged. DA's have limited time and resources.
There are different reasons charges would not have been brought, which may have nothing to do with whether anyone determined that the allegations were false. Insufficient direct evidence, or evidence that might not be admissible in court, or prosecutors' assessment that they might not be able to obtain a conviction. Doesn't mean the sexual assault didn't happen.
Yes it does. Innocent to proven guilty. They failed to prove it. Nice try
He paid it to go away
@@adamsmith2374 Wrong: A jury never comes back with a verdict of "innocent" -- it's always guilty or "not guilty" -- meaning not proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Doesn't mean the incident didn't occur.
@@bunnyluver2176 He paid to keep it under wraps. It doesn't just "go away." He was fearful that if the story came out he'd be fired from Fox.
Also doesn't mean it did. Which seems totally lost on Dana bash-a- nondem.
Cleared? Just like Gaetz.
They’re was a police investigation and it concluded these allegations are false. Not there isn’t enough evidence to charge him. The evidence proved the assault claims false. It was a wife that felt guilty about cheating on her husband so she tried to claim rape… Lock her up.
@@beezybeez4207these people don’t like reality don’t bother
@@beezybeez4207 these idiots don't understand the difference between an allegation and a evidence not being there. I agree with @beezybeez4207, ARREST THIS WOMAN for lying to the law under oath. Pete should sue her for every dime she has.
How about Kamala Husband DV? 🤣🤣🤣
They investigated themselves and found no wrongdoing
It's not fair to the women of DOJ and DOD to put these predators in positions of power over them
Do you know how many allegations there has been against Joe Biden for the same exact behavior and worse?
Yes it's a culture of this at these agencies. DoD did a huge report in 2017/2018 about sex harassment at the agency. This isn't a republican or democrat issue. This is an issue of a lack of respect for woman and a culture of unprofessionalism.
So you think Biden should’ve been disqualified? Unlike with Hegseth, there are credible allegations against him.

@@barbaraallen3054 Are you hopelessly naive, or just another stupid troll?
No, she is just capable of abstract thought. You might be able to as well if you try.
He has already been proven innocent. That why they just keep saying a report was found .
@@richardwood-c1b Nope, he has not been "proven innocent". There's no such verdict in a trial. Prosecutors have to determine whether they have enough admissible evidence and can get a conviction. They're not going to waste resources on cases that are hard to prove beyond a reasonable doubt, which doesn't mean the incident didn't take plac.e

@@WesJenkins518 so you must’ve done the same thing to a woman got it
Don't you find it weird that all of these allegations ALWAYS come up when someone wants a promotion? Why didn't she make this complaint in 2017? Why do women give consent then 5-40 years later say they never consented? Then why didn't you report the Sehxhuahhal Ashault previously? (spelling it weird so I don't get my comment deleted as RUclips do)
Idiotic point
Dems meltdown still in progress.
@@WesJenkins518 And Donald Trump is still a convicted felon who was also found guilty in a defamation lawsuit of sexual assault. Your man Donald Trump was also best friends with child rapist and sex trafficker of children Jeffrey Epstein and whose old spiritual advisor Robert Morris admitted that he sexually molested a 12-year-old girl. Now your guy Trump wanted to hire a pedophile who had sexual relationship with a minor.
Loyalty isn't possible when there's no equality in the power balance. You're not loyal to the "leader" you are subservient.
do more research
Of course, birds of a feather sexually assault women 🤷🏻♂️
Biden was accused of sexual assaults and Kamala said she sided with the women who accused him. Huh, I bet you voted for him.
Kinda like Diddy the Dimlits and sex trafficking children
trump is a convicted felon, did everyone already forget?
What does that mean?

This is getting old. Trumpsters really lack creativity.
Again, US romance and drama washing out in the public arena. We as foreigners are stunned by the show must go on that form an integral part of US moral decay, rotten to the bone.
It’s like you say! “Birds of a Feather Flock together!”
Liberals are sore losers, so the will resist, complain, resist. wine, resist at as nauseam.
Now you know the dirty secret. Enjoy the life you have. Many of us would like to have the same.
Oh yea, here comes another Sa story. This is needing some work. It is really getting comical.
Finding a MAGA nominee without a sexual assault accusation is going to be tough. Maybe they should focus the search on those with 3 or less.
Reminds me of Bill Clinton. Some of these dudes just cannot keep it zipped up!
lol
Before long you are going to be looking for jobs on Fox news on Newsmax Daniel go tell the truth
Expect a lot of allegations to anyone threatening to end forever wars..
sexual allegation are all they got
Soo glad you’re losing your viewers and will soon be fired !!!
Oh here we go.
So many scandals and the Insurrectionist-In-Chief isn't even in office yet.America voted for this predictable chaos and filth wilfully,with more to come 😂😂
Yes we did. Now shut up and watch what happens
I'm glad that's all we have to deal with, Kamala couldn't even get her campaign finances together, so it's best not to let her manage the country. Spending 1 billion in 3 months and now 20 million in debt? Yikes, maybe we should have asked Mayor Willie Brown, who she had an affair with, if she was ever good with money.
The left are a bunch of scumbags themselves TBH.

Kamala lost hard. They'll just make up SA claims against every Trump official like they always do. Funny none of these issues arise until someone wants a promotion then all of a sudden these hussies pop out of the wood work claiming a hook-up was more than that. Maybe she's salty he never called her after, who knows. Women be crazy and the women defending these women who bring these allegations more than 5 years down the road are also crazy.
America lost, just wait till your prices go higher. Your will remember.
Wow, the the Dem's have never tried this line before have they? Except for everytime they really want to get rid of someone. Thomas, Trump, Kavanaugh, Gaetz, ....
You don't pay people off if you're innocent...
Can’t wait for CNN to be canceled. Dana is tough to even look at let alone listen to.

Drain the Swamp!!
Dana Bash is disgusting and needs to be FIRED!
Feel free to not watch the video and not write a comment.
Haters like you are disgusting and needs to be BANNED!
Why would anyone want to run for office
Another monster.
At young age with three marriages, it tell who he might be, a sex predator.
That's the whole point. He wants more monsters around like himself.
This is why Kamala lost. There's no vaccine for TDS.
Forget the allegations, he's openly a Christo-Fascist. That's what we cannot allow.
Be honest, what you can't allow is that he's a Christian.
What the hell is that???
Fake news
They are reporting facts.
Has any man when asked “Did you sexually assault a woman?” ever said Yes? They will all deny it. It’s also the only crime where the victim has to defend themselves to police, judges and juries.
The next person to withdraw his nomination. 🤣😂
Watch and learn
Ha ha ha ha.........even your sad faces tell us you've learned nothing. Keep at it cnn, we need you 2028
Has investigative journalism been outlawed like that of the integrity of maintaining innocent until proven in an unbiased court of law to be guilty? Opinion Commentators vailed as truth-seeking reporters are truly blasé.
His version makes no sense.
1) So he corroborates that she confronted him about being inappropriate with women and he tries to reassure that he is a nice guy. There is even a text she sent to her friend calling him a creep. Then a few hours later she's willingly sleeping with him? That makes no sense. If she was creeped out by him the whole day to the point of arguing with him and confronting him why would she willingly sleep him hours later? He's not making sense.
2) Why would she tell the police and nurse she was raped if they had concocted this brilliant story about sleeping in a friend's room? It's not like her husband suspected anything. So why go so far with a rape allegations? She could have made any other excuse instead of something so extreme.
3) He says he didn't want to sleep with her. But then he sleeps with her? Come on man.
Hegseth story doesn't add up.
Snowflake Channel...
He said it reminds him of what happened to Bret Kavanaugh and that it was a disgrace? Yes, what happened to Bret Kavanaugh - allegations that were not investigated and a sexual predator confirmed to the Supreme Court - and yes, it was a disgrace that that happened.
Hegseth needs to step down or he’ll be thrown out in disgrace. Trump is looking like a looser every day that passes.
No, he’s not. Your hero Joe looks like a loser the way he destroyed America.
Loser*
You still believe what the left tells you? lol
He sure is winning a lot to be a loser. You may want to look up the definitions for these words
Learn how to spell loser. Loser.
If you don't get charged, there's a good chance there is no case.
Trump has truly awful judgement, what was he thinking here? What a moron. Awful judgement is just what you need in a president, well done America 😂😂
Matt Gaetz was a perfect selection for his (Trump) goals. Just because there are Republicans who don't support his mandate doesn't mean it was awful judgement. The awful judgement is in the hands of the Republican Senate who wouldn't confirm him. You people forget, Obama hired Holder and Lynch, two people with similar qualifications and one actually called himself "Obama's Wingman" aka his yes-man.
If he was a bad pick, so was Holder and he was confirmed. I guess Republicans have higher standards.
@@TheSandwichMonster You should be selecting people who will be the best for that department, not necessarily who would be best for your agenda.
I didn't see Holder and Lynch paying prostitutes and bragging on the house floor about their party favours.
Awful judgement? He's president. 😁😁😁
@@TheSandwichMonster think you missed the point. Matt Gaetz has ZERO chance of being confirmed in the senate, and republican senators will not vote to recess themselves, hence awful judgement thinking Matt Gaetz could actually be AG.
same thing I thought when Biden was elected the moron part anyway ,MAGA
You are supposed to be non-biased reporters....You are making up BS between the lines....You need to keep your opinions to yourself, and just speak the facts....you really have issues with this...

If there is a money SETTLEMENT....between both parties.......Guilty, end of story.
Unless your last name is Biden.
He was completely cleared like prince andrew was completely cleared. That is why they paid the victims off.
Hegseth is an incompetent manager. That alone is reason to pull his nomination
And what evidence you have of that. By the way most military positions are filled with officers who never managed a cat litter box. That is why the staff is there. Other than ships many its the first time in command.
All the previous picks for this position in previous administrations had no military experience !!
@@vc6984 He did serve, true. But he never rose far enough up to Run even a full military Division. Let alone something as complex n massive as the Pentagon. Trumps welcome to chose his cabinet. True but hes chosing low level, clearly unskilled TC folks. Running our Pentagon, our massive military is NOT the platform to disprove "The PETER PRINCIPLE "!! I am a #NavyVeteranKorea. I find it disturbing Trump CANNOT find a Well Skilled, Qualified HIGH UP Military Man or woman thats a Republican. For this Critical position, Hegseth is at best qualified to be merely the Pentagons Spokesman. He is a TV Personality type,lol.
The nonprofit he ran spent 30% of its budget on holiday parties and he hired his brother for a 6 figure job. Plus he drinks too much and behaves badly in public and opens himself up for controversy
What an amateur hake do you really consider yourself a journalist 😂
Constant Negative News
Lmfao🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dana is so Sick!
If Trump can create this much chaos with his cabinet nominees 2 months before becoming president, I can't image how much chaos and damage he will inflict on our country and economy once he is back in the Oval Office.
the Dems will accuse other nominees who swiped a cookie out of their grandmas' cookie jar. Hell is coming for you Dem crooks and his name is Donald John Trump... Grab your ank---s Dems!
This is a married woman, she went to hospital for a grape kit, and she filed a police report. Yeah, shes a total liar huh? Please. This guy is not innocent
Only winers get grape kits. May I suggest a Bordeaux ?
Dana just STHU !!!
The only requirements to be a Trump appointee is: YOU MUST BE BATSHIT CRAZY!!
Hegseth divorced twice and on his third marriage at a young age that tells who he is.
Why do the CNN women all talk like valley girls?
I noticed that too. Weird, weird.
As a non US citizen, it really makes me wonder just how, in a land that has millions and millions of educated people who would be capable of doing these essential jobs, and do them with ethics and morals, that the Trump organisation cannot find people who have backgrounds that do not include sexual deviancy or wrong doing. It should be embarrassing to the supporters of this Republican party to have these people lifted up in this government. but, on the other hand, look at the President. (birds of a feather).
It shows that Trump really has contempt for the American people, and the American people will learn that quickly.
