Did Pete Hegseth commit a war crime?

Thanks to Dr. @nolahaynes1.substack.com for joining us today to talk about whether Hegseth committed a crime (here's a hint: YES).

We even worked in a few jokes along the way.

What do you think? Did Hegseth commit a crime? www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbFK...

Calling what’s happening in the S Caribbean Sea “war crimes,” implies this Admin is operating within a legal framework. There’s no formal declaration of war, which makes these illegal strikes extra judicial killings. In other words, we’re potentially talking about murder, not killing enemies.

I’m tracking the news about the peace plan I rolled my eyes at a few days ago. I’m not suprised by any of it. I imagine this is just the surface.

I’m excited to work with Foreign Policy for America on their Congressional Scorecard. I’m on the National Security workforce policy committee.
The scorecard is a big deal on the Hill, electeds care about their grade.

Today on #SecurityBrief on Substack, I did a quick & dirty explainer about why the U.K. is pausing intelligence sharing. I’ll share a longer reel connecting the dots between the U.K.’s decision + broader implications for our larger Five Eyes Intelligence Alliance. It gets deep yawl.

Important reminder, thanks @nolahaynes1.substack.com .
With that in mind, I'm going to take a few minutes on my balcony to breathe & create the space to allow my nervous system to calm down, before I try & get some sleep (it's almost 3am here).
Wish me luck.😴
Yawl, I’m not built for rapid response bc it takes time to verify things & I take SM breaks, which is why I don’t post here daily. I know a lot is going on this evening with the shutdown. But, I’m urging folks for your mental health, put the phone down. Give yourself an opportunity to just be.
