According to WTVF, Yager was driving a Ford Edge SUV with Tennessee Senate-issued license plates on Jekyll Island at around 5 p.m. on Tuesday.
A video provided by WTVF suggested that Yager urinated on himself during a field sobriety test. Georgia troopers also said Yager tripped and fell.

If past picks are any indication.

His actual Transportation pick is Sean Duffy, who meets all three of the requirements for membership in the Trump Cabinet.

More important in the Hegseth case was his desire to destroy the Defense Department. He decided to try doing it after he was caught with a white supremacist tattoo (the "Deus Vult" on his arm) and kicked out of the security detail for President Biden's 2021 inauguration.
