House and Senate Democrats say briefings provided by the Trump administration to justify the lethal strikes on deadly boat strikes in the Caribbean and the Pacific have failed to answer basic questions of how the boats are confirmed to be carrying drugs or how the suspects are identified.
After Democratic senators were stiffed on Wednesday, when briefings and documents were shared only with a small group of Republicans, Senate Intelligence Committee Vice Chairman (D-VA) blasted the administration in a news conference . “That is not how the system is supposed to work. That is not how national security decisions are supposed to be made,” he said.
