I came across this sentence today 「アンタの本音が何で、嬢ちゃんが何を伝えたいかは俺にはハッキリ分かったがなぁ……」and
was thrown off by the double が. I think I understand it but it still kinda
puzzled me for a bit. Can some clarify this?

How does the double が function in this sentence?
> 「アンタの本音が何で、嬢ちゃんが何を伝えたいかは俺にはハッキリ分かったがなぁ……」

So I think what is confusing you here is that you think 何で is "why". In this
sentence it isn't. アンタの本音が何で is a separate clause where で is the continuative
form of だ. So in no sense is there any kind of double が thing happening.

The structure is "X and Y are clearly known to me" where X is アンタの本音が何で and Y
is 嬢ちゃんが何を伝えたい.

Putting it together you get:

> What your true motive is, and what she wanted to convey, are clear to me.
