Danielle Hegseth's sworn affidavit alleges that her former brother-in-law, Pete Hegseth, exhibited aggressive behavior that made his ex-wife fear for her safety and claimed to have a history of alcohol abuse. Hegseth, nominated by President Trump for Secretary of Defense, faces intensified scrutiny as Senate Democrats call for a thorough investigation into these allegations. While Hegseth's attorney dismissed the claims as politically motivated, the Senate Armed Services Committee, which has already advanced his nomination, is set for a vote amidst growing concern over the implications of Hegseth's past.
