I’ve been through a lot worse than anything Donald Trump or Pete Hegseth can throw at me. And I'm not backing down, because this isn't about me — it's about you and every American's First Amendment right.

He explained if the boat flips, tie yourselves together throwing the rope over the bottom, then wait for help.
If freezing, only 1 person gets up on the bottom at a time, bc capsized again would sink it. Ordered us to never try to flip it🚫even aCanoe

Even the legal justification for drone strikes on senior members of al Qaeda and associated forces (ostensibly covered under the 2001 AUMF) states that strikes are justified only “when capture is infeasible”
This is contemptible. Not only do we now have confirmation Hegseth has been lying from the jump, but it seems neither he nor his team understand that killing everyone on a target list *becomes* an illegal No Quarter Order if targets try to surrender or are neutralized. Their semantic games are vile.

If the justification for boat strikes is drugs are bad because they kill too many Americans then why is Schmitt supporting administration policies that will kill more Americans annually than cocaine?

That rare moment in history when the Commander in Chief pivots from murder.
Notable that POTUS is posting a Fox News story about the USCG disabling and interdicting a vessel suspected of carrying drugs.
Demonstrates his awareness of alternatives to blowing up suspected drug boats.
And that killing people is very much a deliberate and completely unnecessary choice.
