Скачать или смотреть Senator Tammy Duckworth GRILLS Marco Rubio on Alien Enemies Act — Heated Senate Hearing

A wartime law. A peacetime claim. And a Senate exchange that exposes how easily “national security” can become a blank check. What happened here isn’t just political theater—it’s a warning about how power expands when accountability gets blurry.
At a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing, Sen. Tammy Duckworth challenged Sec. Marco Rubio over the Alien Enemies Act—an extreme authority historically tied to declared war. The tension: if the U.S. isn’t in a state of war, what justifies invoking wartime tools inside ordinary governance?
Duckworth pushed the contradiction directly, demanding clarity on whether the executive branch should keep using a wartime mechanism while insisting the country isn’t at war. Rubio resisted the premise, reframing the issue as an urgent security necessity and shifting the debate toward non-state threats.
This exchange matters because it’s not only about one policy—it’s about the standard being set. When definitions bend, oversight becomes optional. And when oversight weakens, innocent people can get caught in systems built for speed—not precision.
