CIA Director John Ratcliffe unleashed the full might of his fury on Democratic Rep. Jimmy Gomez amid a heated exchange erupted in a hearing concerning a recent Signal group chat leak that contained plans for an attack on the Houthi rebels in Yemen. The congressman suggested that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth was drunk at the time of the messages.
During the proceedings, Gomez brought up an old claim that Hegseth was caught drinking at a podium in Europe during an address, which was debunked, as the defense secretary was drinking water.
