Follow up: it doesn’t say it’s illegal to fire on incapacitated shipwrecked. It just says it’s illegal to fire on the shipwrecked. Where’d you get “incapacitated” and why are you such an asshole?
Q: "The Pentagon's Law of War manual…says 'Orders to fire upon the shipwrecked would be clearly illegal.' Given that, how was that follow up strike on the two survivors legal?"

Tom Cotton: "They were not incapacitated… They were sitting or standing on top of a capsized boat."

Next year, Donald Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" will hand $67 BILLION of YOUR taxpayer dollars over to corporations for a single tax break.

Why? To "incentivize" research these companies did years ago.

Let that sink in. YOUR money being used to boost Amazon's profits even more.
