“Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), the Senate Intelligence Committee chairman, defended the FBI’s location data purchases. Cotton compared buying location data to law enforcement searching through a person’s trash.”
Apparently Tom Cotton thinks it’s ok for the federal government to sift through your trash without a warrant. Ask yourself, do you want the government to take a close look at your life?

"And the enlisted sailors and Marines on that ship knew immediately it was wrong. They fought it. They went to JAG. And they were overridden. ...
This is a top-down moral collapse under Pete Hegseth and whoever in the Trump orbit green-lit these illegal strikes. And let’s be clear: if a private citizen killed 85 people with no legal authority, we wouldn’t debate terminology — we’d call it murder."

"And the law — U.S. law, military law, international law — could not be clearer: you document everything. You collect biometrics. You record medical status. You keep chain-of-custody logs. You do not delete evidence. You do convene a competent tribunal. None of that happened.
Instead, someone — almost certainly above the Admiral level — ordered everything wiped."

"Nick [Paro]— Army sergeant, trained interrogator, expert on detainee procedures — breaks down just how profoundly illegal all of this is. The United States is not in a congressionally authorized armed conflict with Venezuela. No war declared, no authorization, no oversight, no nothing.
Which means every person seized at sea is legally a civilian until proven otherwise, not some magically self-justifying 'narco-terrorist.'”

Blue Amp continues its reporting on a story I noted here yesterday re: two survivors of a US attack on a boat on 17 October who were rescued by the US military. They were then photographed and videotaped in accord with law — but someone somewhere apparently then gave an order to destroy this documentation in contravention of law.

"Even the U.S. military leaders who briefed Congress sheepishly acknowledged the boat carried no missiles, no explosives, and no plausible path toward any U.S. shore. ...
Some day when a future archaeologist digs up the remains of this once respected republic, he or she will undoubtedly find among the ruins a MAGA plaque, signed by Trump and Hegseth, honoring Tom Cotton for his gallant stand against a capsized and burned speedboat."

"One of the saddest jokes of our time is that Arkansas, a state once primarily known for rice, Wal-Mart founders, and the Clintons, has now given our nation a U.S. Senator whose chief distinction is an instinct for the most primitive idea in any room.
I am talking, of course, about Republican Tom Cotton."

"TOM COTTON: Well I saw lots of evidence of them standing on the boat that had been capsized "
So #TomCotton saw "lots of evidence" in the form of two men standing atop the hull of a split-in-two, capsized, open-hull power boat
For 41 minutes
And then the decision was made to double-tap them and kill them beyond all doubt
Murder, in other words

While Rep. Himes of Connecticut says that the video of the murder of two men clinging to the remains f a bot was "one of the most troubling things" he'd seen, Arkansas Sen. Cotton says it was "righteous." to which Tim Miller and Jonathan V. Last respond with mockery:
"Righteous! Righteous! We must kill 'em! Kill 'em all!"
Some people have moral compasses. Others don't, sadly.

A #Navy admiral told lawmakers Thurs that there was no “kill them all”order from #Hegseth as #Congress scrutinizes an attack that killed 2 #survivors of an initial strike on an alleged drug boat in #InternationalWaters near #Venezuela.

Stef W. Knight and Hans Nichols from Axios reveal Tom Cotton's strategy to downplay the far-right MAGA faction within the GOP during rising foreign policy tensions. Cotton advised Republican senators to overlook critiques from MAGA influencers like Tucker Carlson regarding Trump's Iran stance, stressing indifference towards such views. This illustrates the ongoing struggle between traditional Republicans and the assertive MAGA wing.

#S937: Barring #StudentProtesters from #FederalLoans and #LoanForgiveness
"Would exclude student protesters from federal financial aid and loan forgiveness if they commit any crime at a campus protest. The bill would cover someone convicted of 'any offense' under 'any Federal or State law” that is “related to the individual’s conduct at and during the course of a protest' at a college or university. As such, a student convicted of even a nonviolent, state law misdemeanor at a campus protest, such as failing to disperse, would be deemed ineligible for federal student loans; they would also be ineligible for having existing federal loans forgiven, cancelled, waived or modified. The sponsor of the bill said it was a response to #ProPalestine protests at colleges and universities.
