Pete Hegseth’s Mother on Leaked Email: I Wrote that in Haste, with Deep Emotion

EXCERPT:

HEGSETH: “Let's go back seven years, which if we all went back seven years, we would -- we would see that maybe we were not the people we are today. But, they were going through, Pete and his wife at the time were going through a very difficult divorce. It was a very emotional time. And I'm sure many of you across the country understand how difficult divorce is on a family. There's emotions. We say things. And I wrote that in haste. I wrote that with deep emotions. I wrote that as a parent.”
