It's beyond me how any public representative can let 24 hours pass without going on the record loudly denouncing this. If you tolerate this from your country's leader, you are by your silence endorsing it. Shame on you, America. Read some history - this is a dark road you're on

Thing is, we DID hear about it at his confirmation hearing.
Every single senator who voted to confirm Hegseth knew he held these views about the laws of war.
They voted to confirm him anyway.

Everyone should read this terrifying thread about Hegseth’s published views wrt war crimes. It’s pretty fucking radical …. We needed to hear about this in his confirmation hearing.
A chapter in Hegseth’s book is literally titled “More Lethality, Less Lawyers.”
It’s almost as if there were signs!

The Constitution specified that only Congress can declare war. The last time Congress formally declared war was on June 5, 1942 against Bulgaria, Hungary, and Romania.
Yet we've been perpetually at war since.

We are not at war with Venezuela, yet. The boats are civilian craft. The U.S. criminal code does not maintain a death penalty for drug smuggling. Due process is required before conviction or sentence.
All of the 80 people killed thus far are wanton murders slain under illegal orders. All of them.

Note that formal blockades are possible, as is maritime exclusion zones of different kinds (although here the legalities are somewhat murky), which coupled with "war sustaining traffic" can be argued to give quite free hands, but neither party have made such formal notifications AFAIK.
