Gomez on Hegseth: "He stood in front of a podium in Europe holding a drink! So of course we want to know if his performance is compromised. If your people were asking if General Austin was compromised because of a heart issue ... this is serious."

There is only one way to stop them, PUT THEM IN JAIL. They broke espionage laws by using the unsecure app and then they broke more laws when they lied about it. We can have hearings all day and yell and scream. It will all pass. They MUST be arrested!!

US is an ally if Putin. This doesn't make Americans safer since the US is no longer collecting intelligence in Russia. Was Gabbard in Russia whennthese messages were being sent? We know Witkoff was and using a private phone.

I also noticed how frequently he drank from that amber colored liquid in his cocktail glass. At least be sneaky about it. 🤪. JK. I despise these people and their massive inadequacy to run this country. They are driving us off a cliff!!!

This story is extraordinary outrageous! The facts are that the group has admitted they f-up. The question should be asked how many other times in 60 days has there been group chats that have security information. The DUI hire has proven that he is unqualified; even if his mom say different

Did you read his mother’s letter to him in 2018. She called him every name in the book. She was as brutal as any woman I have ever seen talking about how he is a disappointment. Not sure if she changed her tune publicly, but that letter she wrote was on fire with anger. Look it up.

Look at Ratcliff smirking as he tries to derail the hearing. Chaos and disruption are the only things these people are good at, and they revel in it. (Just because we the people haven’t found out about earlier chats doesn’t mean they were secure, either.)

She appears to not have any knowledge of anything! And the director is so f-ing defensive about most questions, you know he’s lying! So much incompetence in this administration, starting from the top!

These people are CLEARLY lying to cover their asses! There is no excuse or defense for what occurred. Protocols are there for a reason and they CHOSE not to follow them! If they can't do the basics, they should be forced to resign! Immediately!!!

This episode is the exact opportunity for indignance! Publishing live war plans on an unsecured messaging app that evades federal document preservation standards should be impeachable. I am proudly indignant! Unfortunately with this crew it won’t be the last opportunity, I fear…

Why is he in Hawaii buying what?

Hegseth, a probable alcoholic, promoting “stop drinking” if he were to be appointed SecDef. And here Congressman Gomez documents Hegseth’s drinking in public while on the job. Hegseth should be fired immediately.

Biffsgirl
@biffsgirl.bsky.social

Past behavior is concerning and should be considered. I do believe the drink Hegseth had during the press conference was most likely water, however. More likely, his arrogance got the better of him, and he shared sensitive details to show off.

@leahsretreat.bsky.social

He was definitely drinking alcohol. I recognize it not just by the color, but for the desperate thirst with which he drank it. I was once desperate for the next drink, as well.

@rutabegorz.bsky.social

What a moronic comparison! The fact that she got smug and thinks “gotcha” is VERY troubling. You can perform with clarity if you are sick. VERSES Being drunk (inebriated/impaired) on the job, due to an alcohol abuse disorder. For example, drunk driving and public intoxication are both ILLEGAL!

@thecookout.bsky.social

Every lie told by Trump’s security team is a lie told to the American people. And it shows what little regard Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, Mike Waltz, JD Vance and John Ratcliffe have for the American people and the standard of truth. Therefore, the American people have no confidence in them.

This isn't some classified stuff that sat in the box from something that's already happened in a s****** at an ex-president bathroom that no one uses. This was stuff that was happening within the next 60 minutes. He put those pilots in such imminent danger it makes my blood boil.

littledoodle.bsky.social
@littledoodle.bsky.social

Hegseth has admitted to drinking, we've seen him on camera, on Fox, on numerous occasions, drinking & even chugging from a vodka bottle wasted out of his mind. He promised, if confirmed, that he wouldn't drink. It's not an outrageous question to ask.

@rljennings.bsky.social

Why is no one talking about the apt building we leveled to get one man? No talk of how many civilian casualties there were. They're not "collateral". They very specifically decided to bomb the bldg because one man was in it. Unless I'm mistaken, isn't this a war crime? Is this who we are now?

@me-se12.bsky.social

This is the most incredible thing I have seen in a while. Why the american people are not asking for this administration to resign as a whole, they are traitors of the country, it's the complete opposite of patriotism. Nobody escape history and they will be judged for what they have done.

The difference as always is: Republican attacks on Military Generals & leadership is always political and a deliberate strategy to turn public opinion against those who would stand in the way of the Republican Fascist agenda, while Dems are engaging in actual oversight in defense of our nation here

@stevehasaface.bsky.social

The "we should praise the good work" defense is bullshit. Good work is expected. It's a rich approach coming from the "wHy dOeS eVerYboDy nEeD a trOphY tHesE dAyS?!" people.

Ratcliffe is a sanctimonious piece of shit. This guys don't feel any remorse and and are pissed off for being called on it. Besides gross incompetence (which we knew would show itself) I truly believe that these assholes believe that not getting caught in a lie is the same as telling the truth.

Christina
@christinamkaiser.bsky.social

I’ve heard, but just in this clip, she might or might not know if he’s drinking at that moment, but when lying, she’s a much better liar than all of these men. Which tbh, would be useful for someone in espionage, but she sided with Snowden and that’s pretty wild. Also kinda ironic.

@petticoatdespot.bsky.social

You shouldn't drink the water in any foreign country because the organisms in the water are *different* than the organisms here, so you won't have immunity. That would ruin your trip and could cause you to need medical care in a country with different health care. That's not the same as "brown."

@kengoodmanpnw.bsky.social

You know what's fucking offensive, Director Ratcliffe? Engaging in a multi-day online chat to discuss sensitive national security information on a public platform WITHOUT KNOWING WHO THE FUCK IS IN THE CHAT. That's fucking offensive, you incompetent bellend.

Driver9
@driver9.bsky.social

Ratcliffe is a piece of shit. Unlike many others in this historically corrupt and incompetent administration, he's not stupid. He knows that the issue here is the gross breach of national security that occurred when classified details of an air strike were uploaded to and discussed on Signal.

That’s because they are shackled together by their presence in that chat and their subsequent lies in this congressional hearing . Were they not, they’d have chosen a sacrificial lamb by now.

Idk if i should complain or congratulate everyone doe their impulse control. I believe many people wouldve had difficulty resisting the urge to throw their shoes, their drink, whatever, at the #DishonorableRat trying to hijack & lie its way through their questioning.

Mr. Giantrockstar
@mrgiantrockstar.bsky.social

I’m going to keep beating this: They were using Signal to avoid records being kept. This alone is against the law. No FOIA or subpoena on expiring messages. In spite on sanctioned options, they were back-channeling intentionally. It’s not allowed. All acting in bad faith regardless of details.
