The most serious allegation against Pete Hegseth is sexual assault. A woman filed a police report accusing Hegseth of raping her in 2017 at a Republican women’s conference in Monterey, California. According to the police report, the woman claimed Hegseth took her phone, blocked the door to a hotel room, refused to let her leave, and sexually assaulted her despite her repeatedly saying “no”. Hegseth later paid a confidential settlement to this woman, though he maintains the encounter was consensual.Other severe allegations include:

  1. Mismanagement and inappropriate behavior at veterans’ organizations, including frequent intoxication at work events.
  2. Shouting “Kill all Muslims!” while drunk during an official trip.
  3. Pursuing female employees inappropriately and categorizing them as “party girls” or “not party girls”.
  4. Alleged abusive behavior towards his second wife, according to an affidavit from his former sister-in-law.
