The Gateway Pundit has reported several times now on Trump Transition Team insiders leaking information to the press – particularly on Attorney General nominee Matt Gaetz and Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth.
Hegseth has been the victim of several bogus and presumptive claims to derail his nomination.
On Thursday, Vanity Fair published a hit piece on Pete and an alleged affair he had with a woman back in 2017 in Monterey, California.
The information allegedly came from a Transition team insider.
Another leak was published by MSNBC and The Washington Post on Sunday. According to NBC News, Hegseth paid a women hush money after she accused him of sexual assault.
This was leaked to the media over the weekend.
These leaks by a Transition Team member were meant to take down Hegseth and make President Trump look foolish.
On Monday The Daily Mail and Axios reported on a blowup at Mar-a-Lago between Elon Musk and Boris Epshteyn last week.
According to reports, Elon Musk accused Boris of leaking information to the press.
This is all we know at this time.
The Gateway Pundit did hear from our own insider source that the reports were “fake news.”
The Daily Mail reported:
For a while, Donald Trump‘s transition kept up a record-setting pace with top Cabinet picks being named against a backdrop of calm consensus.
But the knives are now out, with advisers leaking against each other to the press amid the scramble to parachute allies into plum jobs…
…In the most widely publicized example, Axios was tipped that Tesla founder Elon Musk and Trump legal adviser Boris Epshteyn had a ‘major blowup’ during dinner at Mar-a-Lago last week.
The report claimed Musk bristled at Epshteyn’s influence on Cabinet picks and accused him of leaking details to the media, charges he vociferously denied.
At the same time, Musk’s new role as ‘first buddy’ to Trump, has irked others in the circle who hope that he soon falls out of favor with a boss who likes there to be only one center of attention.
A transition source played down the story, saying Epshteyn and Musk had a good relationship and had dined frequently at the same table.
Axios had more on the blowout at Mar-a-lago:
Their rocky relationship came to a head last Wednesday during a heated discussion at a dinner table in front of other guests at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club, three people familiar with the episode told Axios.
At one point during what the sources described as a “massive blowup” and a “huge explosion,” Musk accused Epshteyn of leaking details of Trump’s transition — including personnel picks — to the media.
Epshteyn responded by telling Musk that he didn’t know what he was talking about.
