Pentagon Pete’s Ranting Comments Come Back to Haunt Him

Potentially damning remarks from Pete Hegseth have resurfaced as the defense secretary faces accusations that he approved a war crime against a suspected Venezuelan drug boat.

MSNBC’s Morning Joe replayed two clips of Hegseth on Tuesday that may be used against him during the official investigation into the deadly Sept. 2 airstrikes in the Caribbean that killed 11 people.

One clip shows him bragging about watching the attack unfold in real time; the other shows him denouncing “stupid” rules of engagement.
