Hegseth's response to the make-up studio story is exactly what you'd expect

First, he calls it a totally fake story. Then he says we should have installed tampon machines in every men's bathroom at DoD instead--the leftist "news" media would have loved that.

So he did deny this, unlike the signal chat stories.

This comment about the makeup room may have been in a babbling tweet.

Did you see the looks on his kids' faces while he was pulling the Easter speech stunt?
They looked distressed, embarrassed and sad.

Couldn’t see the little girl; the boy with the round face looks like he’s enjoying the show to a certain extent, but also doesn’t look related.

And he looks confused at times by what his father is saying.

The bigger boy with the round face looks distressed at times too.
