Penelope Hegseth joined Fox and Friends this morning for a lengthy interview to try and revive her son's candidacy for SecDef by claiming Pete is a completely different man today while bashing the media.
Hegseth's mother did her best to try and take back the vicious email she sent her son for his constant attacks on women.
When a parent writes such a demonstrative email against her own child, we know something is very,very wrong with that child.
HEGSETH: Right, let's go back seven years, which if we all went back seven years, 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, and about two hours later, my husband tells me I should think through things a little bit more, but Pete and I are both very passionate people.
Penny blames herself for being too emotional for sending this email:
