Kegsbreath is a snap case. I'm watching the hearings in Congress today.

He reacts differently to tough questions from Dems, than he does when engaging with the Repugs. As one can anticipate, he is combative with Dems.

He had many tense moments. The way Kegsbreath facial demeanor changes reveals a lot.

He had a tense back and forth with Rep. Chris Deluzio. Deluzio was a Naval Officer and one of the Congress Critters who recorded a video telling military members not to obey illegal orders. DeLuzio was pushing Kegsbreath regarding the " no mercy, no quarter" statements he has made. (Those orders are in violation of the laws of war.) As is common, Kegsbreath evaded a direct answer.

I watched Kegsbreath distort his mouth and tensely hold it that way for several minutes. It looked unhinged.

it was effective for Dem questioners to spend part of their time pointing out the failings of the war strategy uninterrupted for about half their time, and then direct their actual question to the General. That's because Hegseth doesn't actual know and/or won't reveal any factual information.

He was in an exchange with a Rep whose name I don't know. The Rep chastised Kegsbreath for politicizing this in his opening statement and otherwise. The Rep said: we are here for our constituents...that is who we answer to. "Kegs" was smirking like a punk wise-ass, and then he made a rude comment and twisted and distorted his mouth again.

I think it indicates rage and a lack of control. (But I am not licensed to diagnose.)

I just saw some of the back and forth with Chris Deluzio, that I had missed earlier.

He hollered that something was a false equivalation. (He meant equivalency.)
