This morning we’re diving back into the rapidly escalating Venezuela boat strike scandal and the White House’s increasingly desperate attempts to shield Pete Hegseth from the fallout. Despite the spin, despite the conflicting stories, the core question remains the same: Did Hegseth’s actions constitute war crimes or even murder? Legal experts say yes. The administration of course says “nothing to see here.” We’ll break down the latest reporting, the shifting defenses, and whether anyone in this MAGA-led White House will ever face accountability or if the machine is just veering even further into outright lawlessness.
