DOJ Deputy Chief Joseph Schnitt went on a date with an undercover reporter and spilled the beans - he’s now clawing it back (under duress, I’m sure).

Here’s his statement:

“I met a woman named Skylar on Hinge, a dating app, in July 2025, her profile is no longer findable. We had two dates (August 4 and August 16). She claimed to be an au pair in Georgetown. She gave no clues that she was a reporter or recording our dates. Had I a clue, the first date would have ended immediately and there never would have been a second one.”

“My profile indicated I did “Government” work but did not specify for which agency. I never discussed what do at DOJ.  The comments I made were my own personal comments on what l’ve learned in the media and not from anything l’ve done at or learned via work.”
