Speaking of extra-judicial murder on the high seas, here's an excellent piece about it by Heather Cox Richardson. In the first paragraph, she makes a point of something I hadn't noticed:

... the Senate and the House Armed Services Committees have announced they intend to conduct “vigorous oversight” and “gather a full accounting” of the operation. The two committees referred to the Department of Defense by that name, rather than by the “Department of War” rebrand Hegseth and Trump have pushed.

Here's the whole thing. It's a real zinger.
