Fox Host Condemns Hegseth: “I Am A Rape Victim”

“With all due respect to my former colleague, we know that there were three cases of adultery for Pete Hegseth, and it is relevant.

“And the reason why it’s relevant is, Article 134 of the UCMJ considers adultery against the military, which the Department of Defense is part of. You can’t lead an entire organization and all these people if you can’t lead by example, one.

“Two, I am a rape victim, and I can tell you there’s a reason one in 10 rapes go unreported, and it’s very difficult for a woman to go in and have a rape kit done. It’s physically, mentally, and emotionally very difficult to go through that process, as I have.

“And I can tell you, that just very personal, in my deep core…Somebody doesn’t go into the hospital and subject herself to that. And I have to say, I, as a woman and as a victim, I believe the victims, and this is a problem for me.

“And then on top of that, although Pete has an incredible military career, he doesn’t have the leadership career in the military that I feel the Department of Defense requires as their head.” – Fox News host Leslie Marshall, yesterday on the network’s MediaBuzz show.
