Why, America? with Leeja Miller

Today we discuss Pete Hegseth's alleged order to "kill everyone" on an alleged narcotrafficking boat, leading to a double strike that killed victims actively clinging to burning shrapnel in the middle of the ocean. This IS a war crime. But what does that even mean?

The House Oversight Committee released 20,000 pages of documents from Jeffrey Epstein's emails, and it's just the tip of the iceberg. What the emails reveal is a sadistic system wherein the rich and powerful have decided that certain peoples' lives are worth less than others, a stark example of Hannah Arendt's "banality of evil."
