None

Senator Coons interrogates Attorney General Bondi regarding military strikes and DOJ's perceived politicization during a recent hearing.

Quiver AI Summary

In a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Senator Chris Coons questioned Attorney General Pam Bondi regarding the legality of military strikes ordered by President Trump against suspected drug traffickers off Venezuela's coast. Coons expressed concerns about the strikes potentially representing a "weaponization" of the Department of Justice and circumventing due process.

Coons highlighted the possibility of summary killings by the government if individuals are labeled as cartel members, questioning the legal framework for such actions. He further raised issues about political influence on DOJ decisions, referencing the recent indictment of former FBI Director James Comey, which followed Trump's public demand for action against Comey.

During the hearing, Coons emphasized the need for transparency and adherence to constitutional standards, urging Bondi to clarify how the administration justified lethal strikes without congressional approval. A video of his remarks is available for viewing.
