Brown liquid in a glass and that expression I know pretty well

1. This guy is an effing disgrace! How do Republicans not see it?!?!

2. Has this been photoshopped or is it AI?

4. Fair point. I did a brief web search

Before this I need to say I use an android phone, with a maybe a 3in by 4in screen, not a computer monitor where I can enlarge images. That said

@16:08 ish & 22:58 he takes a drink from a glass like the one in the tweet.The liquid looks brownish on my screen to my eyes.
If he is drinking water in public, he needs to ostentatiously only drink from bottles he uncaps in front of cameras.

So I cannot give you a 100% answer.
Still a fair point

5. Thanks for that. Agree with his history, he should only be drinking bottled water

Thanks for the video, it doesn’t look photoshopped

6. From that video it does look like the liquid in the glass is clear

It changes color based on his blue suit shown through it at one point, but the tweet picture of a brown liquid looks to be altered.

Thank you.

3. Drinking on the job

That has been cause for immediate termination of employment in all the jobs that I've held. Unless you are a taster at a winery or such, I suppose.

7. If that is not liquor, it is sure an odd type of vessel to be serving water in at a podium.

Wouldn't a tumbler or a bottle of water be what you'd expect? Aren't there security concerns about the Secretary of Defense drinking from an open and accessible drinking vessel?

Honestly, you'd think Pete Hegseth, of all people, would be aware of the dangers of someone spiking your drink with roofies.

8. Who is surprised by this?
