Thom Tillis must have fallen on his head. This is like the third sensible thing he has said in the last 2 weeks.
Speaking of brain injuries:
Sen. Thom Tillis told reporters Wednesday he wants to see the final outcome of the investigation into the Feb. 28 deadly attack, but said that "the worst thing we can do, if, in fact, it was a horrible outcome from an American strike, is to try to pretend that it didn't happen."
Speaking of brain injuries:
Tillis made the comments the same day Senate Democrats sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth demanding a "swift investigation" of the airstrike and any other potential U.S. military actions causing civilian harm.
Nearly every U.S. Senate Democrat signed the letter sent to Hegseth.
"The results of this school attack are horrific. The majority of those killed in the strikes were girls between the ages of seven and 12 years old. Neither the United States nor the Israeli government has yet taken responsibility for this attack," the letter, signed by 46 senators, said.
Only John Fetterman, a Democratic senator known for outspoken opinions and occasional defiance of the party, didn't sign.
Asked for comment, Fetterman said he supported the military and Israel in the operation, known as Epic Fury.
"The United States never intentionally targets civilians, including its own citizens, unlike Iran. Everyone agrees it was a tragedy. Everyone agrees on performing a full investigation," he said in an emailed statement.
