Krystal Ball 2:25
Last week, we covered the horrific abuse allegations against Representative Max Miller, who is still running for reelection. And he announced over the weekend, I'm going to have a big speech on Sunday morning. And so people were watching, wondering whether he was going to drop out given the severity of these abuse allegations, both against his ex-wife and against his own child. But no, in fact, he doubled down and denied that any of this was true, let's go ahead and take a listen to a little bit of what he had to say.
Unknown 2:57
My former wife has claimed that during a custody exchange at my home that day, I assaulted her. Here's what actually happened, and I have the Ring doorbell footage that backs it up. She came to my home in a good mood, and we have text messages to prove it, which you'll have, to pick up our daughter early for a friend's birthday party. She was inside my house for several minutes when she left. The video shows her walking out, carrying our daughter calm, in the same good mood, showing no distress whatsoever. And as they left, you can hear me say, goodbye, I love you, and I love you, Ruthie. Literally telling my ex-wife that I still cared for her. Does that sound like somebody who would just walk out and who have been violently thrown a wall and been abused?
Unknown 3:49
She didn't call the police after that. She didn't go to the hospital, ladies and gentlemen. Do you want to know what she did?
