Hegseth lashes out at journalists after being pressed on 'double-tap' boat strike

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Saturday dismissed The Washington Post's report that he issued a kill order on survivors of a September boat strike in the Caribbean. "You don't walk in and say, 'Kill them all.' It's just patently ridiculous," he said, saying that the report was "meant to create a cartoon of me and the decisions that we make." Hegseth has previously denied that he ordered the second strike, while lawmakers have been openly questioning the legality of the decision. "The Weekend: Primetime" hosts and MS NOW contributor Philip Bump discuss.
