Here's Secretary of War Pete Hegseth saying troops should disobey orders and calling for "consequences" for war crimes. He thinks Americans have an "ethos" to be better that our enemies.

What does it say about this country that that the kind of open, rank bigotry Trump administration officials regularly express towards black immigrants apparently has no social cost because of the number of Americans who quietly agree or don't care.

Blowing up boats and murdering folks is a war crime, especially when there is no evidence to support the decision.
Hegseth is in charge of the Pentagon and he’s the one giving illegal orders, but he’ll blame Admiral Bradley to save his own skin.
Hegseth should be removed and held accountable.

Alcoholic and second-string newshost said what now?
Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?
HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post
