REPORTER: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened, or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order?

LEAVITT: The latter. Secretary Hegseth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these kinetic strikes. He worked well within his authority and the law.

Now that Karoline Leavitt just confirmed that Frank Bradley gave the order for the second strike that killed two people clinging to boat wreckage (per @atrupar.com) this seems doubly relevant:
News --> The commander who oversaw Pete Hegseth's alleged killing of two boat bombing survivors is now likely to come in and face questions from the House Armed Services Committee, ranking Dem Adam Smith tells me.

In this piece, I try to make sense of this horror:

Trump Boat Bombings Suddenly on Shakier Ground as Damning Info Emerges
Will Republicans give us a real investigation into Trump’s bombings, now that we just learned horrific new details about them? Or are they seriously going to fall on their swords for Pete Hegseth?

WH response to illegal boat double tap, so far:

• Hadn’t heard of that.
• It didn’t happen.
• Hegseth denied it.
• If it did happen, it wasn’t because Trump ordered it.
• The commander acted lawfully.
• Ask Hegseth.
• It happened and was legal.
• Talk to the War Dept because we weren’t in the room.

Reporter: You said that that second strike was in full accordance with the law of armed conflict but the Navy's own manual of law of war says that specifically firing on survivors from a wrecked vessel is an example of a war crime that's forbidden under U.S. Law and the law of armed conflict…

Hegseth issued an illegal Caribbean strike order: “Kill them all.”

SEAL Team 6 hit the boat and saw survivors clinging to the wreckage.

Commanders then ordered a second strike to finish them off.

Killing survivors is blatantly illegal.

Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.

It is truly disgusting how trump keeps disrespecting women journalists in those press briefings, and not ONE other journalist calls him out.

They should all walk out when he tells a reporter "Quiet, Piggy," or shouts "YOU'RE STUPID" at another.

Where are your fucking SPINES?

That they have lived with this trauma & pain for so long is truly heartbreaking. How anyone can support protecting the perpetrators any longer is hard to believe & a complete disgrace!

New — I wrote about the myriad ways journalism’s moral rot manifests, and how our crumbling institutions have created the conditions for it to fester:
Moral rot in elite journalism is killing the whole field
The Nuzzi/RFK Jr. mess and the revelation of Esptein's journo pals lay bare a profound moral absence at the heart of our free press.

It turns out that the white supremacist Curtis Yarvin recently gave a lecture at Oxford's Sheldonian, the same hall in which I graduated. The University is denying it had anything to do with the lecture, which is obviously untrue.

We have 500 op-eds about how Democrats should somehow ensure no one in the country with lefty vibes ever says anything that's not strictly on message. It could alienate voters!

Meanwhile, the President of the United States, God-Emperor of the GOP, just said "quiet, Piggy" to a reporter on camera.

“Piggy” is particularly egregious but he tells reporters to shut up all the time. He insults them personally and asks where they work before telling them they’re bad people.

The only way to know this is by watching the unedited videos because it’s so routine that it’s not considered newsworthy.
Reporters shouldn’t have to take that shit just because he’s president.
