Democratic Rep. Jimmy Gomez delivered a low blow Wednesday by questioning whether Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was drunk when he texted details about the Houthi strike in the now-infamous leaked Signal chat. Hegseth has vehemently denied struggling with alcohol — and even promised to not drink while serving as the head of the Pentagon — but Gomez took the cheap shot anyways.
