“*We're a nation of legal immigrants whose first mission upon arrival in America was to be a better American than a native-born American. And many millions were. I don't think that is the case now, and the fault is not just with the immigrant, it's with us,” argues Victor Davis Hanson, following a string of high-profile, immigrant-related crimes, such as the brutal shooting of two National Guardsmen blocks away from the White House and a billion-dollar fraud scheme amongst the Somali diaspora in Minneapolis, on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
Michael D. Fuller joins to talk about Hulu's Murdaugh: Death in the Family. The conversation digs into what scripted drama can do that true-crime podcasts and prosecutors can't, especially around messy motives and family dynamics that don't fit a neat trial narrative. Plus, an opening segment on Trump's "don't give up the ship" blowup, congressional warnings about illegal orders, and new allegations that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered what may amount to a war crime at sea.
More than 80 people have now been killed by U.S. strikes on suspected drug boats.
There are growing questions about an order to kill two of those people — whether it amounts to a war crime.
Here’s what we know: on September 2, the U.S. carried out two strikes on a boat in the Caribbean. The second, subsequent strike killed two remaining survivors.
Details of that second strike were first reported by The Washington Post last week.
Today, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth “authorized” Admiral Frank Bradley to conduct both strikes, and that Admiral Bradley issued the order and, quote — “worked well within his authority and the law.”
But on Capitol Hill, both the Senate and House Armed Services Committees are asking for a full accounting.
