A Democrat congressman is coming under fire for seemingly calling for Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s death during an interview.
On Wednesday, Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) went on CNN to speak about Hegseth’s testimony before the House of Representatives regarding the Iran War. Hegseth went viral earlier in the day for slamming another Democrat for calling the conflict a quagmire.
The interview took a turn after host Erin Burnett played a clip from an exchange Moulton had with Hegseth over the War Secretary saying he would give “no quarter” to America’s enemies, including shooting drug mugglers on boats.
Moulton called this a “war crime” and told Burnett that Hegseth was a war criminal and should be tried for war crimes.
Seth Moulton warns of EXECUTION for @SecWar
“Do you believe that the Secretary is guilty of war crimes?”
“Absolutely… The Allies tried Nazi submarine captains for doing this exact same thing. And guess what the conclusion was? They got executed.” pic.twitter.com/5XeR7BEQvg

Then, Moulton seemingly called for Hegseth’s execution for these so-called war crimes.
Yes, he wants to see the Secretary of War put to death.

MOULTON: On top of that, we then have the strike where they came back and hit it again…Just to purely kill these survivors who were clinging to wreckage.
You know, it’s interesting Erin, another historical analogy back in World War II the allies tried Nazi submarine captains for doing this exact same thing.
And guess what the conclusion was? They got executed.
Just imagine the uproar if a Republican had suggested that Biden’s Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin should have been put to death over what happened in Afghanistan back in 2021.
The corporate media, though, will simply brush off Moulton’s despicable statement about Hegseth and pretend nothing happened.
