Shortened title.

Full title: Air Force General says 'nothing happened, ever' as army colonel claims he sexually assaulted her multiple times and lied under oath at dramatic Joint Chiefs vice chair confirmation hearing

The Air Force general picked by President Donald Trump to become the second-highest ranking U.S. military officer on Tuesday vehemently denied sexual assault allegations against him at his confirmation hearing, and received a strong endorsement from a senator who said she was raped while serving in the military.

His accuser, Army Colonel Kathryn Spletstoser, 51, watched on as General John Hyten said 'all of the allegations are completely false' while his wife Laura and daughter Katie watched on at Capitol Hill, Washington DC.

Hyten, nominated to become vice chairman of the military's Joint Chiefs of Staff, said in dramatic testimony to the Senate Armed Services Committee that 'nothing happened, ever' but Spletstoser stuck by her claim and accused him of assaulting her multiple times.

Even though you have a logical argument, I think they will kick the can down the road. Then by September, the spin machine will have trashed him beyond redemption.

I would like to be wrong but we are dealing with politicians, not people.

According to my sources, this chick is a liar and all of the allegations against her (terrible temper, toxic leader) are totally true. Her career ended at USSTRATCOM, and it looks like she’s trying to claim a scalp as vengeance.

GEN Hyten is a good dude and absolutely brilliant.

I knew plenty of horrible woman officers who would lie against an senior, male officer to ‘get back at all men’.

What policies does he support that she might be willing to go all in to thwart?

Justice Thomas was prolife as was Kavenaugh.

getting semen on his sweatpants and on her yoga pants

After the infamous Lewinsky Affair, she didn’t retain said yoga pants?

Liar, liar, yoga pants on fire. Besides, she looks mannish, definately not splooge worthy.

I just don’t believe that person is a biological female. The voice, the mannerisms, even a receding hairline.

Where is a bio going back to childhood for this Kathryn Spletstoser?
