Himes: They posed zero threat to anyone in the region, and we killed them.
Himes: It was exceedingly hard to watch. Even if you stipulate that it is a war, there is a very specific prohibition against killing individuals who have been removed from the fight. And there is no question that these individuals were removed from the fight.

“Yes sir I do. It’s a slur that is demeaning to people and I would expect better from someone holding an office elected by the people and for the people. I find it deeply offensive that you would choose to call people names and slurs because you don’t agree with them. It isn’t befitting your office.
Yes we have a problem with it along with members of your own party.

In the past the vast majority of us held some basic political tenets in common even if we were on different sides. For example, that the outcome of elections should be respected and the Constitution followed.
Now all of that is shattered and I don’t know how we put it back together again.
