@cbsnews: CBS News' Nikole Killion asked Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump's pick for defense secretary, on Thursday if he sexually assaulted a woman in California in 2017. The woman's accusation was detailed in an investigative report released late Wednesday. Hegseth was not charged in connection with the allegation, and his attorney said Hegseth paid a confidential settlement to the woman. #trump #politics #news
“As far as the media is concerned..” = yes, yes I did you’re correct.

Settling a lawsuit is NOT the same as being completely cleared. He was not charged, therefore it was not mitigated, therefore he could not be completely cleared.

Settling a lawsuit for an undisclosed amount and a confidentiality clause is NOT “completely cleared”. Far from it.

Obviously, he’s not the kind of man that can take “no” for an answer. Obviously.

Does that mean that according to the settlement, he isn’t allowed to defame the victim by saying ‘no’?

“As far as the media is concerned…etc, etc, etc.” Notice how he didn’t simply say, “no.”

Cleared? Just because a DA doesn't take it trial doesn't mean you are cleared.
