For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do.
If Hegseth ordered a war crime and lied about it, shouldn’t Ds try for impeachment? Put Rs on the spot. They might get a few defections.

To understand Hegseth’s announcement of impunity for misconduct, you must understand that Eddie Gallagher is the model. This is what he means by “warrior ethos.” Trump may have even selected Hegseth because of his similar appearance to Gallagher.

"If the U.S. military operation is not an armed conflict of any kind, these orders to kill helpless civilians clinging to the wreckage of a vessel our military destroyed would subject everyone from SECDEF down to the individual who pulled the trigger to prosecution under U.S. law for murder."
Here are US military lawyers stating clearly that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's "kill everybody" orders are either (1) war crimes or (2) murder.
Either way, expect prosecutions in the future.

David Gentile reported to prison on Nov 14 to begin a 7-yr sentence for what prosecutors described as a $1.6B scheme that defrauded thousands of victims. Trump commuted Gentile's sentence 12 days later, freeing him from prison. We still don't know exactly how much Gentile paid for his pardon or how.
