Donald Trump's health secretary pick deleting his social media post. Donald Trump's defense secretary pick deleting his social media post. Donald Trump's pick for ambassador to the United Nations deleting her social media posts and her press releases. We see this pattern taking place across Donald Trump's picks. These are people who are willing to do anything and everything to take power and are willing to just completely lie and think it's okay to delete their past. For example, CNN uncovered that Trump's incoming White House press secretary purged her tweets, praising Mike Pence for certifying the election results and praising the Capitol Police.

Just a year later, she ran for Congress denying the 2020 election results. For example, she posted a video of Capitol police officers protecting the Capitol from insurrectionists, and she posted, hero. She also posted a video of Mike Pence, who was giving a speech condemning the insurrection. And then she wrote, Vice President Mike Pence was a steady hand through the chaos that ensued at our Capitol yesterday. Love him or hate him, he kept the wheels of democracy moving and pushed forward to certify his own laws.

Thank you, Mr. Vice President. It was an honor to serve you. She's now deleting posts like that. Defense Secretary, Donald Trump's Defense Secretary pick, Pete Hegseth, who now faces new booze, strippers, debt, and NDA claims at a veterans group that he ran, he's deleting posts as well. Like a post where he said, here's a link to donate to Laura Loomer's campaign, a right-wing extremist who's very close with Donald Trump. Laura Loomer spreads 9-11 conspiracies and has just said the most heinous and despicable things

that she's posted about. You remember our reporting on how she would follow Donald Trump around throughout the campaign, which a lot of other corporate media somewhat picked up on but didn't really give it justice. But Pete Hegseth is someone who has praised her, and she is a 9-11 conspiracy theorist. Also, RFK Jr. deleting tweets faster than he dumped dead bears in Central Park. Give Hoodlum credit for that joke. RFK Jr. says, let's be honest. The NRA is responsible for child murders as if they pulled the trigger. NRA has turned the Second Amendment into a suicide pact for our children. When do we deal with the NRA? RFK Jr. deleted that.

RFK Jr. also used Russian photos during his campaign for the presidency, and he deleted them once he was caught. You can see right here when you zoom in, all of the language here is in Russia and just doing Russian images. He's also deleted this tweet that he recently made saying, I got box ballin' for my entire family. If you want to stay in good shape, get box ballin' and work out every day. The ideal stocking stuffer from kids to grandparents. I mean, he's just like selling crap right now. By the way, he didn't delete this, but his wife, Cheryl Hines, who's forever ruined Curb Your Enthusiasm for me. Over this past weekend, she was selling products as well.

She was selling Make America Healthy Again products, standing in front of a RFK Jr. who was naked in the shower. And I'm not going to show you the video, but she was selling 60% off her products. Over here as well, I want to be very clear that this is serious disinformation and I'm about to read that this is real, dangerous, horrific lies that RFK Jr. spread about vaccines and about modern-day medicine. Again, I want to be very clear about that warning right here, but I want to show you what he said to just demonstrate the lies that he spread. But here are things that he has deleted.

He goes, each one of those shots is billed as a medical advance. So our children should be healthier than ever. But the opposite is true. We have to seriously study whether the scores of shots children receive literally starting on the first day of their lives is doing more harm than good. And he's reposting an image of a baby with injections around the baby saying this is not the path to health. It's the highway to chronic sickness. And he's deleting posts like that. He also deleted a post over here where he talks about somebody being un-gayed by being married. As Kurt Bardella says, a friend sent this to me,

RFK's tweet has reportedly been deleted, but this is just disgusting. Un-gayed? Are you kidding me? And it's someone who goes, just got married. Homosexuality was a phase. And RFK Jr. goes, she's a beautiful angel, Tim. Easy to see how she un-gayed you. By the way, if you're looking to learn more about that bombshell article out of the New Yorker and also subsequently reported on the Daily Beast about Pete Hegseth running this or not running this veterans group and running it horrifically is what's being alleged. Hegseth denies it and claims it's a bunch of disgruntled people at the veterans organization. In other words, attacking veterans.

Just let me read a little bit for you about what these new Hegseth allegations are about. Former Fox News host Pete Hegseth, who President-elect Donald Trump plans to nominate for defense secretary, has a sordid, drunken history of mismaned Veterans for America, that described financial mismanagement, inappropriate sexual advances. And at one point, Hegseth drunkenly yelling, kill all Muslims at a bar while on an official tour in Ohio. Just pause there for a moment. It should also be mentioned that Hegseth was in the National Guard. He never led a company in the military. And we previously reported here on the Midas Touch Network that his own mom in 2018 sent him a letter that said that you are an abuser of women and you need serious help and you

are treating your wife unfairly. That was his second wife at the time when he had kids with his soon-to-be third wife while still married to his second wife. His mom sent him a letter calling him an abuser of women. We also know from reading the police report of a woman who has credibly accused him of rape, he denies the allegations. But in the police report, she talks about him being incredibly inebriated and drunk and sexually assaulting and raping her. He talks about his drinking and drinking there, and he denies it and claims it was consensual, but admits to the drinking. So I just think that's important. Both groups eventually, both those veteran groups, forced Hegseth to step down, the magazine

reported. A lawyer for Hegseth dismissed the allegations as outlandish claims and attributed them to a petty and jealous disgruntled former associate. Hegseth's potential nomination was already facing questions about a woman who alleged he sexually assaulted her in a hotel room after an event in 2017. He denies her claims and says the incident was consensual. A whistleblower report about Hegseth's time leading Concerned Veterans for America from 2013 to 2016, the New Yorker wrote, said he was repeatedly drunk while on the clock, sometimes needing to be carried out of official events. It further alleged that Hegseth,

who was married to his second wife at the time and other members of the group's management team, sexually pursued their female employees, informally dividing them into two camps they described as party girls and not party girls. ignored staff's concerns about the workplace, including an allegation by an employee that another staffer tried to sexually assault her at a Louisiana strip club. She was paid a settlement and signed an NDA, but the report says she experienced reprisals in the workplace thereafter, encouraging a toxic work environment. So yet another NDA that we're learning about. Remember, the woman that Hegseth is alleged to have raped, he made a hush money payment there as well. So yet another NDA that we're learning about. Remember the woman that Hegseth is alleged to have raped, he made a hush money payment there as well. So we're talking about multiple hush money payments and NDAs taking place here.

Thank you, Miracle-Made, for sponsoring this episode. A separate letter of complaint sent to Concert Veterans of America in 2015, in which the New Yorker also reported on, reveals a shocking picture of Hegsiff at his alleged surly drunken worst while at a bar in Cuyahoga Falls, Iowa in May 2015. On an official visit with the organization, he allegedly chanted, kill all Muslims, kill all Muslims,

while visibly intoxicated. But by the way, by and large, Muslims voted for Donald Trump in this election. The report details several incidents where staff said they had to remove or carry out a drunken Hegseth so inebriated he couldn't walk and in some cases passed out from events. And again, pause here. Remember, his own mom sent him a letter and his mom's a well-known life coach in the life coach community. And she said, you need help. You're an abuser. Get help right around this time period. Hegseth resigned from Concerned Veterans for America under pressure in 2016, the New Yorker said, citing three sources aware of the circumstances,

including one who contributed to the whistleblower report. I've seen him drunk so many times, one of the contributors to the report told New Yorker. I've seen him dragged away not a few times, but multiple times. To have him at the Pentagon would be scary. That covers just one of the organizations he ran, and it goes on to talk about the other organization he ran. Oh, by the way, I mentioned Donald Trump's pick to be the ambassador of the United Nations, Elise Stefanik. She deleted her press release about the January 6th Capitol riot, which called for the perpetrators who violently stormed the

Capitol to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Later, Elise Stefanik bent the knee. She submitted to Donald Trump, and she ultimately said that the insurrectionists were hostages and treated unfairly. But she deleted her post right here, saying that the insurrectionists need to be prosecuted shortly after January 6th. So you see a pattern here, craven, callous people who are willing to literally say and do anything for power. They're not guided by values, virtue, morality, anything like that. They'll do whatever, they'll say whatever. They have no shame, they have no morals, they have no moral compass. And we just have to call it out in clear language. I mean, you see it right there.
