If accurate, this is nothing less than a war crime. Shipwrecked airstrike survivors are not a credible threat, and killing them in cold blood is a moral stain on our nation. The responsibility for this crime lies with Secretary Hegseth, Stephen Miller, and President Trump, who have demolished our nation\u2019s credibility and reputation by flagrantly violating international law and the laws of armed combat, which forbid the deliberate targeting of defenseless people\u2014laws which America was vital in creating following the Second World War.\n\n\u201cI am calling for immediate bipartisan briefings for members of Congress on these strikes, and an immediate end to this unauthorized, illegal campaign of murder on the ocean.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T20:09:11Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://delauro.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/delauro-issues-statement-secretary-hegseths-order-kill-caribbean-boat"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6209217719733715, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
