In an effort to save Trump's disgraceful pick to be Secretary of Defense, Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin told CNN that the police report exonerated Pete Hegseth after rape allegations filed by Jane Doe became public. This is a lie. Danielle Paquette and Jonathan O'Connell write, "The papers do not say how police assessed the woman’s allegations and do not address the veracity of either side’s claims." Mullin said multiple times during the interview that he read the complete police report, but in his rant against Jane Doe forgot to mention the reason why no charges were filed against Hegseth.
