US EditionHouse Dem Urges Republicans To 'Imagine Who Gets Killed' In Deadly Strikes Under 'President' AOC
Rep. Jim Himes criticized claims supporting Trump's unauthorized strikes on drug traffickers and warned of legal and ethical risks if future presidents use similar powers.
- On Wednesday, Rep. Jim Himes sharply criticized President Donald Trump on MSNBC's Chris Jansing Reports, saying the strikes on suspected drug traffickers lack legal authorization and violate the rule of law.
- Beginning in early September, the Trump administration launched strikes targeting vessels in the Pacific and Caribbean waters, killing at least 57 people alleged to be smuggling narcotics such as fentanyl.
- Chris Jansing played a clip of Sen. Lindsey Graham claiming most Americans support Trump’s strikes, which Rep. Jim Himes rebuked as beneath Graham and too extreme even for Congress.
- Himes warned that there will be a Democratic president someday and urged Republicans to 'imagine who gets killed,' invoking Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as a cautionary example.
- Critics across the political spectrum called the strikes dangerously `unconstrained` and illegal `summary execution`, and Sen. James Lankford said he'd be `apoplectic` if a Democratic president had ordered them.
