    Yes & No we killed an American and his American son in Yemen. That made the news. Technically a terrorist is a political opponent; but it not necessarily a correlation here. The “more legitimate” examples are all with varying levels of conspiracy and they tend to be old because of the way information is disseminated. But things like JFK, RFK, MLK Jr., Malcom X, MOVE bombing etc… are all examples of the Hoover Era FBI exercising that power.

    And we have rendition as a well known example of extrajudicial torture and murder of US citizens that we know has been used against Innocents in the past.
