Who in their right mind would vote for Cotton? He claimed the survivors were trying to right the boat? Have you ever tried to flip a small canoe back over? Now try that with a ton of weight in the open Ocean with a 30 ft boat. Physics says it's not possible. They were hit with a missile & wounded.

The borders are all sealed up tight and impenetrable according to trump and MAGA. So why are we bothering to strike drug boats in the Caribbean or elsewhere? Hmm. Maybe the borders are OPEN under trump?

If they do, they will only be people of color. Only because the GOP is the party of racism. It has nothing to do with if the person has any drugs on them.

I thought they were already doing that

"First of all, in order to answer your question, I'll need to spend 2 minutes talking in circles with word salad so that no one will know what the hell I'm talking about and eventually never end up answering the question you asked."

Tom “sprinter” Cotton. A man of true cowardice. Give the man a participation trophy.

Tom Cotton would do anything, yes ANYTHING, to be a good trumper. A real groveling subservient POS.

100 percent founded. Any the answer is no

Tom Cotton isn’t very bright is he? Nope dumb as dirt!

Great question. Cc @captmarkkelly.bsky.social @chrislhayes.bsky.social

The entire Republican party is morally bankrupt and MUST be removed from power.

Tom Cotton is such an evil dumbass.

Tom Cotton's brain is not well founded.

Why not? What's the difference? What if they were here illegally? I've been asking the same question for a while and, I've concluded that from the government's perspective, it's perfectly fine blow up people for a number of reasons. They just won't say it yet

Can a reporter ask Cotton at what point he decided to lose his soul to these criminals? Assuming he had one.

"The premise of your question is not well-founded." Sounds like the idiot guy who's trying to blend in with high society ladies club, only to make a fool of himself. But let's get right down to it, if you pull it down on someone and start shooting at them, that's murder.

Dr Suess: “Would he, could he, on a boat?…”

Quite telling that this GOP mushball thinks the "commander in chief" has the authority to unilaterally declare enemy combatants, designate "terrorists organizations" and use our military to summarily execute them on foreign soil.

Obviously, based on Kegbreath’s and Cotton’s logic.

this was the same argument pres Sheinbaum made when trump said he was going to go after cartels in Mexico.

I never even thought of that. Good one.

This uses very good

Wow! Really an eye opener re why American gun exports need to be heavily regulated. Supplying the cartels with weapons = supplying drugs to Americans.

It's ok by me.

Okay…

C'mon Tom enlighten us with your hillbilly home schooling....

Canada is warming up the drones... www.bbc.com/news/world-u...

This deserves a follow!

You could say the same about any U.S. Flagged boat out at sea. Other countries could allege that any U.S. ship is carrying guns and arbitrarily blow them up. This is why soldiers are taught not to commit war crimes. If you mistreat enemy soldiers, it's hard to bitch when they mistreat yours.

But but….international waters! Every argument they make, all I hear is, “…because I said so, that’s why!” 🤦‍♂️

I was thinking of this from a Canadian perspective just last night. Almost all the illegal guns in Canada are smuggled in from the U.S.

Another for Tom. 95% of illegal guns in Canada come from the USA. Canada has the right to target boats crossing the Great Lakes.

Bring it on mother fucker

Beginning to think we should let them.

Comparison would be better if it was in Gulf of Mexico rather than on actual US soil. Another good example would be w/Bermuda. Bermuda has strict gun laws. UK is responsible for defenses & foreign affairs. So if British blew up a US boat allegedly filled w/illegal firearms going to Bermuda…

Those boats were never coming here, and would have needed multiple refueling stops to do so.

What an interesting thought experiment.

Does Tom Cotton take stupid pills, or is he a natural-born idiot?

In other words Cotton is trying to signal to Berman to stick to the goddamn script! 🤣

A lot of its from #TomCotton

POV As with every #trumpMonkey, I cannot stand listening to Berman's stupid #voice. 🙈🙉🙊

Exactly. What are 11 people doing on a "drug boat" taking up, conservatively, 500 kilos of cargo capacity?

Tommy's got some orange on his nose from kissing trump's ass.

Let's stop pretending it's anything new. mappingpoliceviolence.org.

unless the administration does it

Tom Cotton is one dumb cunt.

What I share you may save anything! I ask you share it! To reach more Peeps!

My share is for anyone! Just share it is all I ask!

USAF to use strategic missiles to unlock coal reserves.

This question is even more relevant now that the President has deployed Soldiers into the US.

I cannot stand watching Tom Cotton 🤮

Would it be legal to blow up a meth lab in rural Arkansas? How about a pill mill pharmacy in Little Rock?

What a weasel. It took him 1 minute and 15 seconds to avoid answering a question that required a response of "No."

Idiocracy LIVE!

Cotton used to be well respected member of the Armed Services Committee, non-partisan in dealings with the military. He has just blown up that reputation faster than a suspected drug boat. Clearly he never plans for higher office, because he's not thinking ahead when supporting illegal actions.

He's a Nazi

So basically the GOP’s response is that this fascist regime can do whatever it wants and they don’t give a fuck about anyone’s rights…especially is they aren’t white

Tom Cotton cannot bend himself into enough of a pretzel. Wasn't he supposed to be an Army Ranger? More proof he lied.

More reporters like this please

"Cotton" - intransitive verb: to take a liking — i.e. "cottons to people easily" Perfect for this weasel's subservience to The Stain.

Maga; " I can go 100 mph in this school zone today because Obama went 75 on the highway last week."

BUM COTTON is told how to think and rewarded with what he says, not by the voters but from his real bosses. His energy take a hit from his original interview in September?

Idiot

bsky.app/profile/did:...

Senator Cotton, keep that in mind when Orange Caesar throws you under the bus!

The premise is not well founded in his head because it is logical and consistent and that does not compute for him. Things are right and ‘legal’ because the leader says they are.

That’s exactly what I said when I heard that story.

bsky.app/profile/did:...

Cotton qualified to be an Army Ranger but never served in a Ranger Regiment.

Hegseth murdered those people with zero justification. STFU Cotton. You are part of the problem.

Cotton was correct, the premise of the question was not well-founded. The premise was, "Tom Cotton is a normal person, governed by common sense and with a modicum of self-respect and honesty."

Hmmm, a journalistic moment on CNN. Shocking.

Fucking repugs

The maga republicans are starting to struggle to defend Trump’s lawlessness. Trump will not get rid of Hegseth, he will have to resign or be impeached. Question is how long will the congress republicans allow him to break the law? They are allowing him to stain the reputation of the US military.

Flying a passenger's plane into an office building is also terrorism.

Killing unidentified civilians on international water is terrorism.

That's the 1984 part. With the exact same facts, they say one thing when Democrats are in power and the opposite when they are in power.

Is Cotton ball really dense or does he think we all are stupid No one has the right to be accuser, judge, jury, and executioner America ought to be far better than this, but dtrumpf and republicans are dragging this country into something most of us do not remotely recognize THIS IS BEYOND WRONG

Ho ho ho

Davis and Schakowski are both retiring. You know: The old people that get so much hate for being old and out of touch.

Schakowsky isn't running for reelection, but @katforillinois.bsky.social @katmabu.bsky.social is and she's awesome!

Mr Cotton obviously doesn't like being put on the spot. If the premise of the question is not "well founded" then neither is US anti-drugs policy in the Caribbean.

Tom Cotton is such a tool…even for a scared little MAGAt who ran for his life on Jan 6.

I'll ask again are you absolutely positive and have documented proof those boats were headed to the United States.

Dear @RedSox. You platform this asshole. He shows up in the NESN booth. He walks around Fenway in a team jersey with his name on the back. You amplify his lies that he watches 150+ games a year from first pitch to last. I'm not suggesting you ban him. Just don't glorify an accomplice to murder.

I love John Berman!!!!!

Tom Cotton. You motherfucking piece of shit!

They are all MURDER'S, I misspoke about war criminals, we'd have to have a war for that, right?

I’ve heard many talk about maritime law which seems germane to this question to Cotton.

They might be fine tuning their strategy, but the masks have slipped. We know who owns our MSM and we know those oligarchs and their friends are not our friends. Those massive so-called news organizations exist not to inform us but to manipulate us and manufacture our consent.

MAGA, ie their voters, are that stupid and those are all who need to believe the lies.

Cotton claims to have been in the military. Should we look back at any potentially sinister events during his service?

KKK senator Cotton bootlicker and enabler of fascism says what?🤡

Cotton is useless.

Mealy-mouthed moron

Sigh. Tom Cotton. Not the brightest bulb, but then he never was. Another puppet that you're paying to lie to you, endlessly.

Yes, premises are for arguments, not questions...

Cotton is a Pretzel.
