This episode of Transition Drill Podcast explores the long road from uncertainty to elite service for veterans and first responders navigating identity, leadership, and life after high-stakes careers.Retired Navy SEAL Chief David Swarts shares the realities of becoming a SEAL, the cost of leadership during wartime deployments, and what it takes to rebuild purpose after the job changes you.David Swarts grew up outside Cleveland, Ohio, in a working class household shaped by divorce, independence, and a lot of self-direction. College wasn't on his radar. Cars, restaurant work, and construction jobs were. But the environment around him began pulling people toward drugs and trouble, and he knew he needed a way out.That decision led him into the Navy in 1999, where he initially served as an aircraft mechanic attached to a carrier air wing. While working in naval aviation and deploying at sea, the desire to become a SEAL never left him. After completing his initial service commitment, he earned the opportunity to attend BUD/S and entered training during the height of the post-9/11 operational tempo.Swarts describes the intensity of that pipeline, including surviving Hell Week, setbacks in second phase, and the long road through advanced training. After graduating and completing the Special Forces (18 Delta) medic course, he reported to SEAL Team 10 during the most active years of the war in Iraq. He also served with Teams 2 and 5.From combat deployments in places like Fallujah and Afghanistan, to leadership roles within platoons, and an assignment to TRADET, Swarts experienced the relentless cycle of training, deployment, and responsibility that defines life in the teams. He reflects on mentorship, the culture of young SEAL platoons, and how leadership evolves from being one of the guys to becoming responsible for the team.The conversation also explores moments that reshaped his perspective. Becoming a father while deploying. Navigating the pressure of leadership as an LPO. And dealing with accusations of war crimes, twice, and investigations that followed combat operations overseas.Through it all, Swarts offers a candid look at growth inside the SEAL teams, the mistakes that shape him, as well as leaders, and the realities that come with dedicating your life to service.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulpantani/WEBSITE: https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulpantani/SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:https://transitiondrillpodcast.com/home#aboutQUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:paul@transitiondrillpodcast.comSPONSORS:GRND CollectiveGet 15% off your purchaseLink: https://thegrndcollective.com/Promo Code: TRANSITION15Blue Line RoastingGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://bluelineroasting.comPromocode: Transition10Frontline OpticsGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://frontlineoptics.comPromocode: Transition10

Last episode we discovered the Pugilist can punch above its weight class. This episode we discovered the Pugilist can punch above the entire encounter budget. Today on RPGBOT: One character becomes a professional wrestler air-dropping enemies from low orbit One character summons eldritch tentacles to commit mathematically irresponsible violence One character crits often enough to make the Rogue question their life choices Welcome back to our D&D 5e Pugilist build guide, where "balanced combat encounter" is more of a philosophical suggestion. Show Notes In Part 2 of the RPGBOT.Podcast deep dive into the Pugilist class in Dungeons & Dragons 5e, the hosts shift from theory into practice by building actual characters and analyzing low-level combat performance (levels 1–10 gameplay). After previously discussing the core mechanics like Moxie points, exhaustion gameplay, and Haymaker damage, the episode explores how subclasses dramatically amplify the class's effectiveness, especially during tier 1 and 2 where balance matters most. Each host builds a different Pugilist archetype: A grappling-focused wrestler leveraging shove-prone and movement manipulation A spell-augmented "Hand of Dread" pugilist combining melee and warlock magic A critical-hit boxer maximizing burst damage and counterattacks The discussion highlights a major mechanical theme: the Pugilist excels at advantage generation in D&D 5e combat. By knocking enemies prone, grappling, or using subclass features, the class reliably attacks with advantage, dramatically increasing DPR (damage per round). Once Haymaker is added to the equation, damage spikes sharply. The hosts compare expected damage output to standard design math ("dude-stop damage"), demonstrating that even basic tactics can nearly reach or exceed a full party's intended damage output — especially when combining Hex, advantage stacking, and bonus attacks. The episode also examines character optimization choices such as species, feats, and ability scores. Strength and Constitution dominate builds, while backgrounds and feats further push survivability and burst damage. The result is a martial class that plays less like a traditional striker and more like a hybrid of barbarian durability, monk mobility, and rogue-style burst damage. Ultimately, Part 2 reinforces the earlier conclusion: the Pugilist's real power isn't just numbers — it's how its mechanics interact. The combination of resource refresh, exhaustion mitigation, grappling control, and burst damage allows players to reshape encounters in ways most classes simply cannot at early levels. Key Takeaways D&D Pugilist subclasses drastically increase power at levels 1–5 Grapple + shove prone creates reliable advantage in D&D combat Haymaker turns consistent hits into extreme burst damage Spellcasting options (like Hex) push DPR beyond normal martial scaling The class frequently approaches or exceeds expected 5e damage per round math Tier 1 encounters struggle against optimized Pugilist builds Strength + Constitution are the optimal Pugilist ability scores Moxie point recovery enables aggressive play every fight Exhaustion mechanics become a benefit instead of a drawback The class blends control, durability, and burst damage into one role Basic tactics alone can approach "dude-stop damage" Subclasses determine whether the Pugilist breaks balance… or demolishes it Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

Sons Of Liberty Radio with Bradlee Dean More War Crimes Testimonies The Racket of Modern Warfare: Unmasking the Military-Industrial Complex Radio Transcript AnalysisMarch 04, 2026 Sons of Liberty: More War Crimes Testimonies An examination of the military-industrial complex, unconstitutional warfare, and the human cost of regime change. Core Perspectives "I was a racketeer for capitalism... I suspect I was just part of the racket all the time."— Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler 1 The 7-Country Memo Gen. Wesley Clark's revelation of a Pentagon plan to "take out" 7 countries in 5 years post-9/11. 2 Incentivized Atrocities Soldier John Michael Turner testifies to being congratulated for killing civilians and offered "4-day passes" for stabbings. 3 Constitutional Erosion Critique of sanctuary city mayors and federal overreach as "tyranny where the law ends." Contextual Data Global Military Footprint 737 Bases Across 142+ Countries Key Figures Cited: Dwight Eisenhower Smedley Butler Wesley Clark John Michael Turner John Adams Theological Framework: The show argues that the "American people need to repent" and that the Constitution is only adequate for a "moral and religious people." #AntiWar #Constitutionalism #Liberty Speaker: Bradley Dean | 60 Min Broadcast This broadcast of Sons of Liberty examines the systemic corruption within the U.S. government, ranging from the defiance of federal law in sanctuary cities to the orchestration of unconstitutional foreign wars. Through historical warnings and veteran testimonies, the program challenges the prevailing narratives of the military-industrial complex and calls for a return to biblical and constitutional foundations. Domestic Lawlessness and the Sanctuary City Conflict The program opens with a critique of big-city mayors who have vowed to defy federal law regarding sanctuary cities. Citing John Locke's principle that "wherever the law ends, tyranny begins," the host argues that these leaders are effectively harboring illegal aliens and misusing tax money without delegated authority from the people. Specifically, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is accused of using "totalitarian methods" to undermine public safety by refusing to cooperate with executive orders, despite claims that such defiance protects immigrant communities. The discussion extends to the broader impact of migration, citing significant crime increases and welfare dependency rates in Europe and the United States. The host posits that the compromise of the modern Church has allowed "politics without God" to flourish, leading to a society that no longer adheres to the Christian ethics upon which the nation was founded. The Military-Industrial "Racket" "I spent most of my time being a high-class muscle man for big business, for Wall Street and for the bankers... I was a racketeer for capitalism." — Major General Smedley Butler (1940) The Evolution of the Military-Industrial Complex Central to the broadcast is the warning issued by President Dwight D. Eisenhower regarding the "military-industrial complex." Newly uncovered documents suggest that Eisenhower's famous farewell address was a deeply personal attempt to alert the American people to the acquisition of unwarranted influence by the armaments industry. The host contrasts this historical caution with modern administrations, which he characterizes as "draft dodgers" taking dictates from international banking interests and Zionist influences. He argues that the narrative of "righteous war" has been lost, as the military has evolved into a tool for commercial gain rather than national defense. Orchestrated Conflicts and the "Seven Countries" Memo General Wesley Clark's testimony serves as a pivotal piece of evidence for the program's claim that wars are premeditated. Clark recounts a memo from the Secretary of Defense's office shortly after 9/11, which outlined a plan to "take out seven countries in five years," starting with Iraq and ending with Iran. The host highlights that these decisions were made without any proven connection between Saddam Hussein and Al-Qaeda, suggesting that the U.S. military is being used as a "hammer" looking for "nails" to justify its existence and generate profit. This orchestrated violence is further illustrated by the "frivolous" reaction of George W. Bush to the lack of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) in Iraq. The host notes that while the administration mocked the public with "half-smirks," the human cost was devastating, resulting in the deaths of over 4,000 U.S. soldiers and approximately one million Iraqis. The Post-9/11 Targeted Nations As revealed by General Wesley Clark regarding the Pentagon's 5-year plan: 1. Iraq2. Syria3. Lebanon4. Libya5. Somalia6. Sudan7. Iran Testimonies of War Crimes and Moral Accountability The program concludes with a harrowing testimony from John Michael Turner, an Iraq War veteran who renounced his medals. Turner describes killing innocent civilians and being "congratulated" by high-ranking military brass for his first kill. He details an environment where soldiers were incentivized with "four-day passes" for stabbing Iraqis to death. The host uses these accounts to argue that the American people are accomplices to these crimes by tolerating corruption in the halls of government. He calls for national repentance, asserting that the "appalling silence of the good people" is the greatest tragedy of the current era. Key Data Military Presence: 737 military bases in over 142 countries. Iraq War Toll: 4,343 U.S. soldiers lost; 1 million innocent Iraqis killed. Financial Gain: $34.5 billion made from the Iraq conflict. Global Crime Stats: 450% more crimes by Muslim migrants in Denmark; 77% of rapes in Sweden committed by a 2% minority. U.S. Welfare: 91.4% of Muslim refugees on food stamps; 68.3% on cash welfare. To-Do / Next Steps Citizens must stop being "entertained" by congressional hearings and demand actual accountability for treasonous acts. Individuals in the military must uphold their oath to the Constitution and refuse unconstitutional orders. Americans are urged to repent for tolerating the "theft of billions" and the murder of innocents in foreign lands. Support the ministry's efforts to expose corruption by becoming a "Son or Daughter of Liberty." Schedule community events with Bradley Dean to spread the message of liberty and biblical truth. Conclusion The broadcast serves as a stark reminder that the survival of the American Republic depends on a moral and religious people. By exposing the "racket" of war and the lawlessness of domestic leaders, the program seeks to awaken a "knowledgeable citizenry" capable of guarding against the disastrous rise of misplaced power.

Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson — former Chief of Staff to Colin Powell at the State Department and Joint Chiefs — joins Paul Jay and gives his unfiltered assessment of the U.S. war on Iran. Wilkerson argues the conflict is unconstitutional, unwinnable, and strategically catastrophic. Topics include: Iran's military resilience and long-term strategy, Israel's nuclear threats, the depletion of U.S. and Israeli air defense munitions, China's push to replace the dollar with the renminbi, the collapse of American alliances worldwide, the threat to the 2026 midterm elections, and whether impeachment proceedings against Trump are inevitable.

This month Mary Page's guests to discuss Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine, and in particular the issue of prosecuting for war crimes and other human rights abuses committed by Russia in Ukraine, are both from the UK: the academic and human rights lawyer Bill Bowring (pictured left) and Steve Crawshaw, journalist, author and human rights activist (pictured right). Mary's Guests Emeritus Professor Bill Bowring is an academic since 1990 and practising barrister since 1976 who has since 2006 taught human rights and international law at Birkbeck College, University of London. Bill was a Trustee of the Redress Trust, working for reparation for torture survivors, which led the Victims Coalition in the drafting of the 1998 Rome Statute for the International Criminal Court. Bill worked with the Redress Legal Officer Fiona McKay who drafted the provisions for victims in the Rome Statute. Fiona went on to become Chief of the Victims Participation and Reparations Section at the ICC, from August 2004 till December 2015, 11 years. She now serves with Bill as a Trustee of Lawyers for Palestinian Human Rights, taking a keen interest in prosecution of individuals suspected of war crimes in the conflict in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. With Colonel Reverend Nicholas Mercer, the senior Army Lawyer in Iraq who blew the whistle on British war crimes and resigned, Fiona has participated in teaching Bill's course at Birkbeck on International Criminal Justice. Steve Crawshaw is a former UK director and UN advocacy director at Human Rights Watch and has also worked previously as Russia and east Europe editor, and chief foreign correspondent, at The Independent newspaper. He has also held senior roles at Amnesty International and Freedom from Torture. His latest book, Prosecuting the Powerful: War Crimes and the Battle for Justice, was shortlisted for the Moore Prize for Human Rights Writing. Steve travelled four times to Ukraine while writing the book, as well as to Israel/West Bank and post-Assad Syria. His reporting as a journalist on Russia formed the background to Goodbye to the USSR (1992). Steve's other books include Easier Fatherland: Germany and the Twenty-First Century (2004) and two books on creative protest: Small Acts of Resistance (with John Jackson, foreword by Václav Havel, 2010) and Street Spirit: The Power of Protest and Mischief (foreword by Ai Weiwei, 2017). This discussion was recorded on 26 February 2026 Mary's questions: 1) Great efforts are being put into documenting war crimes and other human rights abuses committed by Russia during its war on Ukraine. What are the chances for prosecuting Russian actors? 2) As you know, peace negotiations (such as they are) have primarily been between the US and Russia, and only more recently also involving Ukraine. How do you see these negotiations? 3) How do you see the role and effectiveness of civil society organisations in today's climate – on the international level human rights NGOs such as, for example, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, and more local groups such as the Centre for Civil Liberties, the ZMINA Human Rights Centre or the Crimean Human Rights Group in Ukraine? 4) Finally, what is your prognosis for the future of human rights at this point in the 21st century?

Lets talk about it

The battle in the Doctrine's storehouse of constructed bodies reaches its most blasphemous stage yet. As alarms wail and conveyor lines grind to life, the crew fights deeper into a cathedral of false creation—where half-finished Cybertronian forms hang like saints in reliquaries, waiting for stolen minds to give them purpose. Doctrine cultists chant synchronization rites over control consoles, desperately trying to complete their “ascension” before the facility is lost. This isn't just a fight for survival—it's a theological brawl. Steel clashes with faith. Synapse meets skepticism. And the crew makes it very clear that they do not accept walk-ins to the congregation. By the end of the episode, the storehouse burns, the Doctrine's holy work lies in ruins… and the consequences of stopping this “miracle” are only beginning to reveal themselves.

Many of the images that have been seen from Israel’s war in Gaza have already been seen for the last time. With Gaza under siege from the Israeli military and tech companies censoring and taking down material, the responsibility falls on the people of Gaza to document and archive their own evidence of war crimes and genocide. How will it survive? This is a story from the archives. This originally aired on April 11, 2025. None of the dates, titles or other references from that time have been changed.

Canada, a business entity headquartered in Washington, DC, is at the center of intense, high-stakes allegations involving governance, crimes against humanity, national security, and election integrity.  It has grown into the world's largest terrorist hub with over 4,000 organizations operating there per CSIS' own report.  Their plans to execute 14.7 Million Canadians by lethal injection have been leaked, yet why have we not seen a turnover to peace and freedom while the corportocracy in Ottawa have been shown to both support and carry out international war crimes from experimental gene-editing WMDs, fund FTO's labelled by the USA, have no election integrity, have multiple lawsuits from Norman Traversy and others tossed out of a corrupt judiciary from RICO to the Freedom Convoy, Universal Ostrich Farms and more.  Sovereign Sensei Dan Oke connects the dots across Canada + the U.S., digging into interactions with JAG, the Law of War Manual's context, and the White Flag of Parley as sovereignty momentum accelerates in what's lauded to be the 51st State.   .

Päivi Räsänen, a Finnish parliamentarian, has been criminally prosecuted for expressing her Christian beliefs on marriage and sexuality in a 2019 tweet. Following multiple police interrogations, in April 2021, she was charged with “hate speech” under the War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity section of the Finnish Criminal Code, alongside Lutheran bishop Juhana Pohjola. Despite two unanimous acquittals, Räsänen now faces the seventh year of legal proceedings. The landmark case was heard at the Finnish Supreme Court on 30 October 2025, following the State prosecutor’s appeal. The prosecution is seeking tens of thousands of euros in fines and is demanding that Räsänen publications be censored.Featuring:Lorcán Price, Legal Counsel, Alliance Defending Freedom International (Counsel for Päivi Räsänen)(Moderator) Karen J.

Day 1,418.Today, as thousands remain without power in Kyiv, we examine President Zelensky's pledge to carry out more operations “inside” Russia and analyse Moscow's latest tank and weapons innovations. We then unpack an extraordinary outburst from a Russian spokesperson, who dismissed the “wet dreams of British perverts”, before considering what the fall of Iran's regime would mean for the war in Ukraine. Later, we return to the issue of Ukraine's stolen children, with new details on the military training they are being forced to undergo.ContributorsFrancis Dearnley (Executive Editor for Audio). @FrancisDearnley on X.Dominic Nicholls (Associate Editor of Defence). @DomNicholls on X.Adélie Pojzman-Pontay (Journalist and Producer). @adeliepjz on X.With thanks to Olesia Bida (Journalist, The Kyiv Independent's War Crimes investigations). @olesyabida on X.SIGN UP TO THE ‘UKRAINE: THE LATEST' WEEKLY NEWSLETTER:http://telegraph.co.uk/ukrainenewsletter Each week, Dom Nicholls and Francis Dearnley answer your questions, provide recommended reading, and give exclusive analysis and behind-the-scenes insights – plus maps of the frontlines and diagrams of weapons to complement our daily reporting.

Pardons, Pipe Bombs and the Campaign to Make You Forget. Stephen Miller: “Greenland Should be Part of the US” What About the War Crimes? Maduro Arraigned. Trump's Runaway Train Effect. Congrats, Montana St.  On the fifth anniversary of January 6th, Independent Americans host Paul Rieckhoff broadcasts from a dark, gloomy New York City morning that looks and feels like the day the Capitol was attacked—and he refuses to let America forget what really happened. He opens with a raw reflection on how Trump's insurrection shattered his own family's memories of the date, then tears into Trump's runaway war footing across the Western Hemisphere, from Venezuela to Cuba, Colombia and even Greenland, and a cowardly Congress that won't assert its War Powers responsibilities or even demand answers on alleged war crimes and wounded U.S. troops.​ On this somber anniversary, Paul is joined by the “great and powerful” Scott MacFarlane, CBS News justice correspondent and arguably the most trusted reporter on January 6th in America. Reporting from inside the Cannon House Office Building, Scott reveals that Republican leadership is doing nothing official to mark the day—no memorials, no floor speeches, no shared remembrance for officers who were beaten, gassed, traumatized or killed—creating what he calls a real‑time whitewashing of history, as he details the emotional toll on Capitol Police and congressional staff who hid under desks, called their families, and then came back to work in the same halls that were under siege. He breaks down the state of accountability now: mass clemency for more than 1,500 rioters, pardons that wiped away cases even for people not yet arrested, halted and refunded restitution payments, the new pipe‑bomb arrest outside the RNC and DNC, the slow grind of the Maduro case, and how denialism has shifted from rejecting the 2020 result to denying the insurrection itself.​ Paul zooms out to connect Trump's unchecked global strikes, the risk of another government shutdown, the dissolution of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting after 58 years of funding PBS, NPR and local stations, and new efforts in New York to require teaching January 6th alongside 9/11 to kids growing up in a time when that history is being rewritten. He spotlights independent veteran Senate hopeful Ty Pinkins of Mississippi and reminds listeners why Independent Veterans of America was created to back patriots like him, then rounds out the episode with culture and sports—from the X‑Men's big‑screen return to Montana State's first FCS title in 41 years and the power of football as one of America's last shared rituals—before he and Scott close by saluting the officers and staffers who “stood the line” on January 6th. For everyone tired of partisan gaslighting who knows January 6th was real and still matters, this is a home for country over party, people over politics, and light over heat—and a call to subscribe, share, support independent media, and stay vigilant, especially on January 6th. Because every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the most important news stories--and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows.

2026-01-05 | UPDATES #089 | Odesa goes dark: Russia's winter energy war hits Ukraine's Black Sea lifeline Odesa. It is of course a deliberate use of terror and a war crime, but a core part of Russia's attritional and psychological strategy. Odesa is a frontline city without a frontline. In this part of Ukraine, it's a war of transformers, not of artillery, and this is the deliberate logic of an aggressor that cannot make significant gains on the battlefield, so tries to win advantages by freezing people in the winter darkness.Russia's sustained targeting of Ukrainian energy infrastructure is hammering cities across the country this winter, but Odesa may be taking some of the worst hits. Over the New Year period, Odesa and the surrounding region were hit by renewed drone attacks that struck not only residential buildings but also energy and logistics infrastructure. Reuters reported regional authorities saying: “Strike drones attacked residential, logistics and energy infrastructure in our region.”----------SOURCES: Kyiv Independent (Dec 31, 2025) — “'Russia is targeting civilians' … Odesa … outages reported”https://kyivindependent.com/russia-is-targeting-civilians-russian-drones-strike-residential-building-in-odesa-outages-reported/Reuters (Dec 31, 2025) — “Four injured, including three children in Russian attack on Odesa, Ukraine says” https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/four-injured-including-three-children-russian-attack-odesa-ukraine-says-2025-12-31/Reuters (Jan 1, 2026) — “Ukraine condemns Russian new year drone attack on power infrastructure” https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/ukraine-condemns-russian-new-year-drone-attack-power-infrastructure-2026-01-01/Ukrinform (Jan 1, 2026) — “Russian attacks cause new power outages in three regions” (Ukrenergo statement) https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-ato/4075663-russian-attacks-cause-new-power-outages-in-three-regions.htmlUNN (Jan 5, 2026) — “Ukrainians face power outages on January 6” (Ukrenergo referenced)https://unn.ua/en/news/ukrainians-face-power-outages-on-january-6Ukrainska Pravda (Dec 31, 2025) — “Energy workers report significant power outages…” (Ukrenergo quotes) https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2025/12/31/8014130/----------Silicon Curtain is a part of the Christmas Tree Trucks 2025 campaign - an ambitious fundraiser led by a group of our wonderful team of information warriors raising 110,000 EUR for the Ukrainian army. https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-silicon-curtainThe Goal of the Campaign for the Silicon Curtain community:- 1 armoured battle-ready pickupWe are sourcing all vehicles around 2010-2017 or newer, mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, with low mileage and fully serviced.

Following overnight U.S. airstrikes on Caracas, the seizure of President Nicolás Maduro, and President Donald Trump's declaration that Washington will take control of Venezuela's oil and effectively run the country, analysts Steve Ellner and Ricardo Vaz warn that the operation constitutes an unlawful use of force. They cite the combination of military assault, extraterritorial abduction, resource seizure, and alleged extrajudicial killings at sea as violations of international law and Venezuelan sovereignty.

Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are going to do unspeakable things to the people of Venezuela. The result is going to be more money for big oil companies, and a lot of dead people. Plus a Wisdom School musing on the ubiquity of panpsychism. Racist pundit Nick Fuentes advocated for non-Christians to receive the death penalty.

Over the past three months, the U.S. military has been firing on boats from South America, killing more than 80 people and prompting Democrats to raise urgent questions about their legality.Now, one of these operations, which killed survivors with a second missile, has prompted congressional Republicans to join those calls for accountability.Charlie Savage, who covers national security for The New York Times, explains the renewed debate and how the administration is justifying its actions.Guest: Charlie Savage, who covers national security and legal policy for The New York Times.Background reading: Lawmakers suggested that a follow-up boat strike could have been a war crime.Amid talk of a war crime, the details and precise sequence of a Sept. 2 attack on a boat in the Caribbean are facing more scrutiny.Photo: Tierney L.

The House and Senate Armed Services Committees launch an investigation into Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth after a report that he ordered a second strike on a boat in the Caribbean while survivors were clinging to the wreckage. Was his order a war crime? Jon, Lovett, and Tommy discuss and then jump into the rest of the news, including the White House's reaction to the shooting of two National Guard members in D.C., Trump's pardon of a former Hondoran president convicted of helping drug traffickers bring hundreds of tons of cocaine into the United States, and a special election in Tennessee where the Democrat has a fighting chance to flip a Trump +22 district. Then, Rob Sand, Democratic candidate for governor of Iowa, joins to talk about his race—and how Iowa farmers are reacting to the Trump trade war. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Rachel Maddow relays the details of a new Washington Post report that Donald Trump's secretary of defense, former weekend cable news host Pete Hegseth, gave orders to kill everyone on board a boat he accused of running drugs to the United States, which meant finishing off the survivors of an initial strike that destroyed the boat — the literal textbook definition of an illegal order. Rep. Adam Smith, ranking member of the House Armed Services Committee joins to discuss a new, bipartisan push to investigate Hegseth's orders.Rachel Maddow talks with Nadya Tolokonnikova, founding member of Russian dissident activism group Pussy Riot, about what it means that the Putin administration has declared her a member of an "extremist" organization, and the parallels to Donald Trump using a similar tactic to give himself the tools for targeting people he doesn't like.
