Summary

The Washington Post has reported: "Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say" Kill them all." Hegseth's order, and the resulting murders in international waters, violates domestic law, international law, and the law of war.

A statement just issued by the "Former JAGs Working Group" concludes that the killings carried out on Hegseth's orders "are war crimes."

Glenn sat down for a discussion about this latest development with law professor, military law expert, and member of the Former JAGs Working Group - Dan Maurer.
