"Yes they were truly hors de combat. Yes they were members of a hostile armed non-State group and therefore protected under the US LOW. They were not moving back toward the vessel - as I said they were sitting on top of a section of the wrecked capsized boat. They had not radioed for help. They were not trying to "return to the fight." They were shipwrecked. If you want to argue it was fine to execute them because some portion of the wrecked burned boat was still above water go ahead. But it's a totally bogus argument"

"The crux is that Trump has no legal or constitutional authority to summarily execute alleged drug smugglers (who happen to be 1500 miles from the U.S.). The fact that he's executing people who are smuggling coke which while not great is not an especially lethal drug only makes it more absurd"

"Executing unarmed enemy survivors who pose no threat to U.S. troops is plainly illegal under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So when people ask "What's an example of an illegal order from the Trump administration" this is an example"
