Democratic members of Congress united Sunday to call for the release of footage of a strike against survivors to dispute the Republican defense of the Sept. 2 operation against a Venezuelan vessel.

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) reiterated his stance supporting the subsequent strike against the vessel, which was allegedly trafficking drugs. Immediately after being briefed by Adm. Mitch Bradley, who was in charge of the operation, Cotton told reporters that “the first strike, the second strike, and the third and the fourth strike on Sept. 2, entirely lawful.” Cotton repeated his support Sunday on NBC News’s Meet the Press.
