During his confirmation hearings, the Left pointed to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's drinking as a disqualifying factor. It might have been an argument with weight if the Left weren't raging hypocrites on the issue (as they always are), and Hegseth was confirmed despite the attacks.
Having learned nothing from that, Matt Yglesias is trying to pull the 'he's drinking!' card and it did not go well for him. At all:
I assume this is a trick of the light and he’s not actually throwing back bourbon on camera, but it’s interesting that the water looks brown. pic.twitter.com/M8vpj7FpLt

Seriously?
SERIOUSLY?!
That's clearly Hegseth's distorted hand through a glass of water.
Yes, this is what you are reduced to.

Your parents must be so proud.
Hey, why don't you go snitch on some more disabled veterans who parked somewhere you didn't like, Matty.
Remember when he did that? Matty thinks he's the good guy.
He is not.
It’s interesting that you’re such a retard. And I use the word ‘retard’ in the literal, offensive way.

Careful, or you'll make him cry into his soy latte.

Science and honesty aren't Matty's strong suits.
It's interesting that an alleged intellectual is actually a mouth-breathing idiot.

Or does he just think his followers are?
