YouTube Description
as posted by the channelPete Hegseth allegedly ordered U.S. forces to "kill everybody" on a boat in September, then when two survivors were clinging to the burning wreckage in the water, he authorized a second strike to murder them - and legal experts are calling it a "textbook war crime." Former DOJ prosecutor Liz Oyer and Democratic strategist Maria Cardona join Jim Acosta to break down the bipartisan calls for Hegseth's resignation, why Trump is now distancing himself saying "I wouldn't have wanted that," and the shocking Franklin the Turtle meme Hegseth posted mocking the killings. PLUS: Trump's pardon of Honduran drug lord Juan Orlando Hernandez who trafficked 400,000 tons of cocaine and kept $15 million, Trump becoming the "phone it in president" who can't even show up in person anymore, his mysterious MRI, and his approval ratings in free fall at 36%.
