Senator Warner Questions Legal Briefing Timeline on September 2nd Strikes

Concerns Over Legal Briefing Timeline

• 🎯 Senator Mark Warner expressed dissatisfaction with the timeline of a legal briefing concerning the September 2nd "double-tap" strikes.
• ❓ Warner stated that the legal briefing was completed on September 5th, three days after the strikes occurred, and he received "inadequate answers" when inquiring about this.
• ⚖️ He finds the premise of equating entities with drugs to those with weapons problematic.

Transparency and Congressional Access

• 🎬 Warner believes the American public deserves to see a video related to the strikes, even if arguments about "sources and methods" are made.

• 🗣️ He emphasized that members of Congress need all documents to make judgments, especially if the information is not shared with the public.
