10:27Now PlayingPresident Trump’s Venezuela strategy is under scrutiny as reports allege Secretary of War Pete Hegseth ordered a second strike that killed survivors of a Sept. 2 boat attack, an act that could constitute a war crime. Hegseth initially denied giving such an order, even joking about the strikes, but the White House later confirmed a second strike occurred, saying it was carried out by an admiral acting within his authority. The Pentagon’s war manual bans follow-on strikes on survivors, fueling bipartisan investigations now underway in Congress.
