Description

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth defends follow-up strike on alleged drug boat, citing fog of war. He didnt see survivors after initial hit and didnt stick around for the rest of the mission. Politicians investigate verbal order to kill everybody on the boat. Legal experts question legality of second strike, violating peacetime laws and armed conflict guidelines. President Trump distances himself, relying on Hegseth for information. Navy Vice Admiral Frank Mitch Bradley ordered second strike, expected to brief politicians later this week.
