Aaron great reporting!! And folks I promise you this, everything the incompetent Hegseth said, past or present will come back to haunt him. Sooner or later.
He wants to be as impervious to accountability as Trump. Problem is, Hegseth can’t shoot someone on 5th ave. and get away with it. Or two guys hanging on the side of a shipwrecked boat. There needs to be 100% transparency here not the kind of transparency that Pam Bondi talks about.
Thanks for the update, Aaron. I do admit this is good news, but I’m not holding my breath for any consequences happening anytime soon, or ever. As unlawful as so much of it is, murder!! the repubs will continue placing roadblocks to impeachment. They will keep throwing the Admiral and those who actually performed the strikes, under the bus. Though they all do need to be held accountable for murder, including the Admiral, from the top of the chain of command down to those unfortunate souls at the bottom.
It will be the epstein file’s playlist all over again. Deny, distract, boots on the ground in Venezuela to kushner’s ‘peace plan’ for Ukraine.
You mean Putin's 'Peace Plan' for Ukraine? I am so disgusted with this slimy and Criminal Administration, that every day now, I have to take a mental health break and dive into some fictional novel, preferably one based on another planet.
You are the first I read every morning. I like your no nonsense, non inflammatory reporting. BTW: I've never been on TikTok, I get an email from your platform that takes me to substack.
Does anyone really believe that pete “little warrior-man” kegsbreath didn't give the “kill them all” order? He did it and the Admiral knew, or should have known it was a crime. I agree that everyone from kegsbreath to the Admiral to the grunt who did the actual pulling of the trigger needs to be tried and, if found guilty, held accountable. Do I think tRump will pardon them as soon as they're charged? Sure, as long as they're not female or black/brown people. Do I also believe that public confidence in the armed forces of the United States is being actively eroded? Heck yes! Isn't that why other countries decided not to share intelligence with the US, for fear the information might be used illegally? The US is either being laughed at as a bunch of buffoon-clowns or side-eyed as a bunch of unhinged psychopaths. Either way, I'm a little angry about that.
Putin helped put Trump in power, so Donald The Destroyer could do to the US Military, what the Russian Army never could. I read the Mueller Report and every single little footnote. Trump was Conspirator Number One in that report! Now we find out that all the major MAGA Influencers on X have digital addresses emanating from Russian controlled Eastern Europe or Africa! Yes! Trump is getting his ultimate vengeance in the total destruction of the United States Government and all of us Americans with it!
I'm Canadian and so glad to hear that former US intelligence allies in the Five Eyes and NATO have stopped sharing their intel with the US under Trump. The US government is a completely unreliable partner and the government highly prone to reckless, criminal behaviour.
Thank you for the thank you and for this morning's report. I can't sufficiently put into words how much I appreciate the legal breakdowns and explainers that you bring in your work, today especially. I hope you have an amazing day!!
I share it with my British and Canadian relatives. I tried to gift several Substacks to My British Cousin, but when I put her UK email address into the form Substack comes back with a message that it is an invalid email address. I wish Substack would fix this. Meanwhile I use the share feature and add it to clipboard then send it by Yahoo Email. Canada is a bit easier.
Love you Aaron. Became a founding member a couple of weeks ago after a while as a paid sub. You deserve it. I look for you every morning and evening or during the day if something happens for the most up to date news. Happy you are getting recognized, bit I worry for you and your Dad. Just be safe. Thank you for all you do.
Thank you for your analysis. It made clear to me why filing the Articles of Impeachment was important so there is a record for how each representative votes. I wouldn't have thought this through on my own.
Right. The whole operation is absurd (no disrespect to the military & the “do not obey illegal orders” message is relevant here too).
This operation is blatant nonsense. The human rights violations of these deaths are an undeniable stain on our country even with a GOP controlled government. Are we going to allow killings related to unverified drug smuggling to continue?
How much information is being blown up with these boats?
Rand Paul said it well (paraphrasing)- if it’s an act of war, then what war has been authorized by Congress? If it’s not an act of war, then what legal process allows for this type of killing (1st or 2nd strike)? None.
This is on top of Innocent, nonviolent working people being detained in abhorrent conditions and then deported to countries they did not immigrate from…how are those people being treated when they arrive? This is outrageous…meanwhile the Heritage Foundation and trump & his administration act like they’re doing “God’s work”
It's no secret Hegseth, Trump, Vance and the rest of them promote the death penalty like it's milk in cereal. Let's see how Pete feels facing the death penalty
I would rather see him incarcerated at Alligator Alcatraz. Let him suffer as they have made detainees suffer. Trump, Vance, Noem, Homan too. Trump wouldn’t last a 48 hours there without his cadre of physicians.
Bradley (I think) said there was evidence (plastic wrapped bundles in the water?) the boat was running drugs. That would be evidence they luckily found AFTER bombing the boat on a bet.
It is a war crime because these orders to kill, and the actual killings, came from the Pentagon leadership. It's a war crime to shoot at or bomb the boats in the first place. Additionally, it's a war crime not to rescue any survivors of said bombings.
We dont have to be at war for it to be considered a war crime. The laws he broken “allegedly”, are the international laws for laws of war. Which puts this as a war crime. Also, I hope this didn't come off too blunt lol I can be a little straight forward so I can come off as argumentative but im not trying to be 😂
No one is above the law; the law must be applied equally to all people. As an Afghan veteran, I have seen in many countries that laws are not always enforced on politicians, while they are often strictly applied to ordinary citizens.
Hey folks, hope you have an amazing morning!
Wanted to shoutout everyone who reads and shares these posts. You all are amazing.
Special shoutout to those who subscribe or who have sent a Venmo to Aaron-Parnas. You guys help me do this full-time and I am so grateful!!
Love your work Aaron!
Aaron, you bring very intelligent news to us daily. Thank you for your dedication! :)):)):))
He was doing his makeup.
Aaron great reporting!! And folks I promise you this, everything the incompetent Hegseth said, past or present will come back to haunt him. Sooner or later.
Yes! May the Devil send him into the circles of Dante's Inferno!
Forgive me, you have a wonderful day as well! 😊
Maria! Thank you! 🤗
Thank you,Aaron. Have a great day. We need you.
As a veteran who spent lots of time in preflight and pre mission planning:
What you shared this morning is a literal smoking gun. It’s intent and conspiracy.
Not surprising at all why Holsey resigned.
He wants to be as impervious to accountability as Trump. Problem is, Hegseth can’t shoot someone on 5th ave. and get away with it. Or two guys hanging on the side of a shipwrecked boat. There needs to be 100% transparency here not the kind of transparency that Pam Bondi talks about.

The top of the guilt rests in the WH and the cabinet
Yes, the top of the chain.

Thank you Aaron Parnas
We enjoy listening and reading your articles 😉

Aaron, Do you accept Zelle?

We need more than just Articles of Impeachment! We need to Court Marshal and Prosecute Him Straight Away.
GOT IT!
I could not AGREE MORE “GOT IT”!
Court martial.
Of the admiral ,but what about eggseth ?
Thank you lol
Martial, not marshal.
Kegseth is a lying POS LOW LIFE& STUPID as the. Day is long another anticipated obituary
Thank you for your analysis. It made clear to me why filing the Articles of Impeachment was important so there is a record for how each representative votes. I wouldn't have thought this through on my own.
BRING HIM BACK ON ACTIVE DUTY AND COURT MARTIAL…WHAT’S GOOD FOR THE GOOSE IS GOOD FOR THE GANDER…THAT'S WHAT HE WANTS TO DO TO SENATOR KELLEY…
Jeffries needs to go
Let those fat generals judge him!
Yes. I hear that submarines are popular w/ the drug crowd. Also, not in Venezuela, Petey you dope.
They were paddling with one arm while clinging to a boat on fire with the opposite arm to continue their drug run. Clearly an act of aggression. /s
Right. The whole operation is absurd (no disrespect to the military & the “do not obey illegal orders” message is relevant here too).
This operation is blatant nonsense. The human rights violations of these deaths are an undeniable stain on our country even with a GOP controlled government. Are we going to allow killings related to unverified drug smuggling to continue?

Such evil in our names.
Rise up.
that drunkard should have NEVER been put in this position to begin with. get him gone.
Whiskey Pete thinks he's playing Call of Duty in the Caribbean.
Unfortunately, this is real life and innocent people are dying. I can't wait for him to go to jail even though Trump will pardon him.
Impeach all of Trump's regime and Trump too. Vote blue in 2026.
Along with EVERYONE ELSE of idiot trump's junk drawer of a cabinet!
The Republican Party will just confirm another unqualified incompetent flunky
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS THE ENEMY
Johnson also needs to go!
Trump and the rest of this corrupt administration next please.
Yes please
It's no secret Hegseth, Trump, Vance and the rest of them promote the death penalty like it's milk in cereal. Let's see how Pete feels facing the death penalty
I would rather see him incarcerated at Alligator Alcatraz. Let him suffer as they have made detainees suffer. Trump, Vance, Noem, Homan too. Trump wouldn’t last a 48 hours there without his cadre of physicians.
Agreed 100 % however You are 47:54 off in regard to how long he would last
Not to mention his Big Macs.
And his double burgers and ketchup
Trump will pardon him as soon as the jail door clanks!
Mike Johnson needs to be taken out of his position he works for the administration not the people
This is tip of the iceberg. What about all the other strikes that happened? What happened during those strikes?
To my knowledge, there has not been produced evidence that the boats held narcotics
That's exactly right
Bradley (I think) said there was evidence (plastic wrapped bundles in the water?) the boat was running drugs. That would be evidence they luckily found AFTER bombing the boat on a bet.
Indeed, we don't really know the evidence
This is NOT a war crime. We are NOT at war. This is murder pure and simple. I dont know why it's being reported as a war crime.
True. Not at war
It is a war crime because these orders to kill, and the actual killings, came from the Pentagon leadership. It's a war crime to shoot at or bomb the boats in the first place. Additionally, it's a war crime not to rescue any survivors of said bombings.
We dont have to be at war for it to be considered a war crime. The laws he broken “allegedly”, are the international laws for laws of war. Which puts this as a war crime. Also, I hope this didn't come off too blunt lol I can be a little straight forward so I can come off as argumentative but im not trying to be 😂
Finally, THEIR Department of “WAR” holds some merit!
The Irony….
Probably because it was carried out by the military.
What a sad time we are living in with this is allowed and it is a partisan issue
And it's also deflecting from so many other issues that we should be paying attention to. Of course his cabal likes that aspect of it.
Let's not forget the daily innocent victims of ICE
Simply to Impeach Him is Just Another Tactic of playing around with the System.
This involved Cold Blooded Murder !
The MAGA sheep in congress will never vote for it, scared
Good strategy to get everyone on record. Thanks, Aaron.
in ANY OTHER SITUATION murder has its consequences
Except in Isreal where they commit crimes with impunity.
Tattoo Pete is now a murderer. Congratulations, Major! You made your mark.
The mark of Cain.
No one is above the law; the law must be applied equally to all people. As an Afghan veteran, I have seen in many countries that laws are not always enforced on politicians, while they are often strictly applied to ordinary citizens.
Exactly, thanks for pointing that out
fantastic lock him up
What’s going to happen when another country does this to members of our military or American citizens?
Good question for hypocrites. Thanks.
If allowed to not be held accountable for this…Kegsbreath will move on to American citizens HE DEEMS A THREAT!! WAKE UP AMERICA!
