The Mayer piece is devastating:
A trail of documents, corroborated by the accounts of former colleagues, indicates that Hegseth was forced to step down by both of the two nonprofit advocacy groups that he ran—Veterans for Freedom and Concerned Veterans for America—in the face of serious allegations of financial mismanagement, sexual impropriety, and personal misconduct.
Among the specific allegations:
repeated public intoxication while “acting in his official capacity—to the point of needing to be carried out of the organization’s events”; trying to dance on stage with strippers at a strip club in Louisiana where he’d brought his team; sexually pursuing his organization’s female staffers, who were classified as either “party girls” or “not party girls”; and drunkenly chanting “Kill All Muslims! Kill All Muslims!” at a bar in Ohio while on business there.
