This week on Red, White & Bruised, host Robin breaks down another week of chaos from the Trump administration, from potential war crimes to beefing with pop stars to gutting protections for trans prisoners.

THE BIG STORY: Pete Hegseth's Boat Strike Scandal The Secretary of Defense is facing war crime allegations after reports surfaced that a second missile was fired at survivors of an initial strike on an alleged drug boat in the Caribbean. 87 people dead across 22 strikes. No evidence released. And Hegseth says he "fully supports" killing shipwrecked survivors. We dig into the Washington Post reporting, the congressional briefings, and why 75% of Americans want to see the receipts.

ALSO THIS WEEK:

• Sabrina Carpenter vs. The White House: The administration used her song for ICE deportation propaganda. She called it "evil and disgusting." The White House called her "stupid." Also, they pissed off Franklin the Turtle. Yes, the children's character. We discuss.
• Trump's National Security Strategy: Great Replacement Theory is now official U.S. foreign policy. Europe is the enemy. Russia is a partner. This is fine.
• January 6 Pipe Bomb Arrest: They finally caught the guy. Plot twist: he's a Trump supporter who believed the Big Lie.
• National Parks Go MAGA: Free admission on MLK Day and Juneteenth? Gone. Free admission on Trump's birthday? You bet.
• "Affordability" Is a Scam Now: Trump ran on lowering prices. Now he says the word "affordability" is a Democratic con job. The cognitive dissonance is breathtaking.
• Tennessee Special Election Results: A 13-point swing toward Democrats in a deep red district. What it means for 2026.
• Trump vs. Kaitlan Collins: Another day, another female journalist called "stupid and nasty."
• MTG's Revenge Tour: Marjorie Taylor Greene confirms Trump was "furious" about her support for releasing the Epstein files. "He said it was going to hurt people."
• DOJ Guts Trans Prison Protections: The administration quietly ordered inspectors to stop checking whether prisons protect trans inmates from rape. The cruelty is the point.
