His administration’s illegal and ineffective campaign of boat strikes in the Caribbean and the Eastern Pacific has violated U.S. laws, failed to meaningfully stop drug trafficking, and legally imperiled U.S. servicemembers ordered to conduct these strikes. “The American people are through with forever wars, yet this administration has extended strikes to land, including in Venezuela and Ecuador, pulling the United States into a forever war in the Western Hemisphere. “Despite the seriousness of these strikes, including evidence that the United States killed survivors in a clear violation of U.S. laws, the Republican majority has refused to hold hearings or demand transparency or accountability. That must change and I am confident that it will in the next Congress. “I will continue to work alongside my colleagues to ensure accountability for the Trump Administration officials involved in these illegal acts.” | 1 | 2026-09-03T09:29:33Z | 2026-09-03T09:31:32Z |
