Trump appoints new Pentagon spokesman who physically abused his wife and kids. Sean Parnell's wife testified he left her stranded on side of the road, telling her to "go get an abortion." She also swore under oath that he repeatedly abused her and their children—choking her and hitting their child so hard he left a welt. She said he also punched a closet door, causing a bruise on their other child's face. He then told the child it was all their fault. The judge in the case found that his wife's testimony was "convincing," and awarded her primary custody of their 3 children. Sean Parnell was "somewhat evasive" and "less believable." The custody hearing was held in 2021. That means Trump knew he abused his wife and kids before he appointed him. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #DemsUnited
