The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and other civil rights organizations filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration, demanding the release of legal documents that justify lethal U.S. military strikes on boats suspected of drug trafficking off the Venezuelan coast.The complaint asserts these strikes are illegal, have resulted in the deaths of at least 88 civilians since September, and argues the public has a right to know the justification for these unprecedented actions.Amid concerns over transparency, President
Donald Trump has faced calls from critics, including a bipartisan group of former ethics officials and some Republican lawmakers, for an internal
DOJ investigation into the legal opinion supporting the unilateral use of lethal force.
