Pete Hegseth, Jeanine Pirro and Kash Patel walk into a bar. Stop me if you've heard this one.

In reality, alcoholism is no laughing matter. And neither is the fact that the head of the Department of Defense, the director of the FBI, and United States Attorney for the District of Columbia all appear to have "drinking problems."

I'm sure that alcoholism in Washington is not a "lone wolf" disease, and that the character defects of Trump's three stooges run deeper than the immediate dangers of their not being able to think rationally and clearly in a time of criisis.

So yes, a flip and sarcastic thread title, but it seems to me that this warrants some form of Congressional investigation and / or intervention. No idea what they can do, or if a Republican majority in Congress would have any interest in it at all.
