Doug Emhoff Denies He Assaulted Ex-Girlfriend, Silent on Hush Money Accusation

Bailey: Doug Emhoff  is a real American He-man 😂😂😂 

After a second negative Daily Mail report about Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff's behavior with women, Emhoff's spokesperson issued a brief statement to Semafor denying one allegation and ignoring another set of allegations.

As RedState covered, Emhoff is accused of slapping an ex-girlfriend across the face so hard that she spun around. Emhoff's supposed reason for the assault was his belief that the woman, who the Daily Mail referred to as Jane, was flirting with a valet as the two left a party during the Cannes Film Festival in France in 2012. Of course, the liberal legacy media ignored the story, and the next day Semafor published a tidbit in their morning newsletter headlined, "Second gentleman becomes a target," making Emhoff the victim, of course:

Half of the political world focused Wednesday on a Daily Mail report that second gentleman Doug Emhoff “forcefully slapped ex-girlfriend for flirting with another man” at Cannes in 2012. Others (including Semafor) haven’t matched the reporting, and as of Wednesday evening the incident didn’t appear in The New York Times or top outlets. But the allegations are a dominant narrative in conservative media: Megyn Kelly’s coverage had more than 150,000 views on YouTube, while Trump aide Stephen Miller demanded answers.

In a statement to Semafor, a spokesperson for Emhoff said “this report is untrue,” and that “any suggestion that he would or has ever hit a woman is false.” This is a new campaign front: Emhoff has been a key Harris’ advocate, cast as a relatable, enlightened “wife guy” and father who “discussed the feminism of Pearl Jam.” Now he’s a target. A New York Post columnist wrote that if “Emhoff is the new face of masculinity, the Dems are up a creek.”

The spokesperson didn't address which aspects of the report are untrue - the Daily Mail published photos of Emhoff and the woman together and their travel itinerary, and a YouTube video from the party's red carpet showed Emhoff and a brunette woman attending the event together.

Jane also told Daily Mail that Emhoff admitted to her that he'd impregnated the kids' teacher (who also worked for the Emhoff family as a nanny), and that the teacher/nanny accused Emhoff of causing a miscarriage during an "aggressive" altercation. Eventually, Emhoff told Jane, he "settled" with the nanny for approximately $80,000 and had her sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA).

Sources not connected with Jane told RedState in August that there was a domestic violence incident between Emhoff and the nanny that resulted in the LAPD being dispatched to the home where the nanny lived. The Daily Mail report included an LAPD report showing a call for service for an "unknown disturbance" to the nanny's home in June, 2009, which corresponds with the time frame of the pregnancy.

Emhoff's spokesperson didn't address the new information about the nanny's pregnancy specifically. Wonder why?
