“Senior officials on President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team on Friday weighed the future of Pete Hegseth, Trump’s choice to lead the Defense Department, amid new revelations that police investigated an allegation that he sexually assaulted a woman in 2017,” the Washington Post reports. “The internal turmoil over Hegseth’s future was sparked by a complaint shared with the transition team with extensive information about a woman’s claim that Hegseth assaulted her in a hotel in Monterey, California, after a Republican conference… The woman who drafted the complaint said the alleged victim was a friend who later signed a nondisclosure agreement with Hegseth.” CNN: Trump’s transition team caught off guard by Hegseth allegation.
