Senators Norman Bates say the killing of defenseless people is "highly lawful"

 

Headline:  New York Times, 12/4/2025

Megan Mineiro, Julian E. Barnes, and Dave Philipps reports:

Senator Tom Cotton, Republican of Arkansas and the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, called the attack “righteous” and “highly lawful and lethal.” He said the video showed two survivors trying to flip a boat “loaded with drugs bound for the United States.” The follow-up missiles were “exactly what we’d expect our military commanders to do,” Mr. Cotton added.  [emphasis added]

 

What a closeted guy to do?

 

Not the first time that Cotton's sexuality has been questioned, you know.

 

Back when it was Twitter
