Whereas common advice for the division, Johnson, whose affirmation hearing starts the following day, co-authored the prison justification for the usage of drones in struggle. CodePink has been actively objecting to Johnson’s nomination, now not just for his toughen for drones but in addition his views on mass surveillance, whistleblowers, and more.
“A couple of dozen” individuals of CodePink, according to National Journal’s Ben Terris, gathered around his home on Monday night, full with popcorn and mugs of scorching cider, and watched a movie on drone warfare, booing when Obama’s face came on monitor and cheering pictures of CodePink founder Medea Benjamin getting ejected from an experience.
“We want to publically disgrace him, and expose him for what he’s,” mentioned CP spokesperson Alli McCracken. “We would like the neighbors to know who he’s.”
The Johnsons were not house, and Terris mentioned the event didn’t draw a crowd past some curious dog watchers and a few police officers.
