Trump’s/Hegseth’s extrajudicial killings are MURDER. If Trump pardons a man found guilty by an American jury of conspiring to import 400 TONS of cocaine into the U.S., his Venezuelan war has nothing to do with drugs.

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes. If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.
