Killing of suspected traffickers at sea was already abhorrent. Hegseth may have made it a war crime.

Donald Trump has been quick to post videos and brag about the heinous boat strikes on suspected drug traffickers by the U.S. military.

But now comes a report by the Washington Post that a live drone feed showed two survivors from the first attack clinging to the wreckage.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who a year ago was working weekends at Fox News, reportedly gave a spoken directive to "kill everybody."

To comply with Hegseth's instructions, the Special Operations commander overseeing the attack ordered a second strike, and the two men were then blown apart in the water, according to the Post.
