In 2015, a complaint letter a now-former CVA employee sent to management described Hegseth chanting Kill All Muslims!

at a bar in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, while on a rally tour with the organization.

The complaint described Hegseth and another individual chanting in a drunk and violent manner.

Several recalled Hegseth smelling of alcohol or discussing being hungover before tapingFox & Friends Weekend.

He reportedly polished off a display of warm beers at 10 a.m. ThePostnotes that Hegseth downing the beers was jarring to colleagues.

Like veterans returning from any war, we drank beers to manage the reality of what we had faced.

Later on Wednesday, he told Megyn Kelly: I never had a drinking problem.
