The strikes on the boats in international waters, the evidence is flimsy about whether each of these strikes is going against a boat that's actually carrying drugs. I can't say more than that because what I know, I know from classified settings, since The Senate has been unwilling to hold a single public hearing in either the Armed Services Committee or the Foreign Relations Committee about this military operation. But the whole notion that these strikes are to stop boats with drugs on them is flimsy, in my view. And now here we have the seizure of an oil tanker. (00:46–00:57)
