It's amazing how US citizens just believe everything they hear and are OK with killings when it's done to foreigners.

Or how ever LIb will not give Trump credit for anything good.

The one thing he did that was good was operation warp speed, and there is zero chance he would do that today.

Obama's drone strikes were definitely problematic legally, but on the other hand they were directly related to a shooting war.

Al Qaeda and ISIS had military and political goals. I don't see that as the case with purely criminal drug gangs.

I'm not sure I see much of a difference between Islamic terrorists and Narco terrorists. They both bring death.

And the cartels are as vile and evil as ISIS. The way the cartels torture people is probably even worse than the Islamic extremists. These cartels are serious organizations. And they should be taken seriously.

If the intelligence was good, I think the US Navy did the world a favor taking out these Venezuelan drug traffickers. And I suspect at least 80 percent of Americans would support using our military to hit cartels. I don't think people in Bethesda or Alexandria realize how devastating drugs have been to other communities - both urban and small town America. We are losing more than 100,000 people a year because of people like these Venezuelans. Killing eleven of them probably saved the lives of hundreds of Americans who didn't OD on their crap.

There is no one doing drug intelligence in the US government. All those people and resources are dedicated to rounding up day laborers and demanding proof of citizenship in DC. This was a hit. Most likely a cartel was not making payments to Trump and his republican underlings. This had not to do with stopping drugs or “saving” people in the US.

The US military is not about keeping US citizens safe or protecting freedoms.

You have it mistaken, all the intelligence assets are hard at work making stuff up about the conflict in Ukraine.

You painting the Russians as the good guys?

What has he done good? Break the country apart? Do away with the constitution? Helping pedophiles?

It is so hard to deport gang members. Better to not let them in to the country to begin with.

This. I guess everyone is okay with summary executions and war crimes now. It starts with brown people. Eventually they will come for you too.

Drug smuggling is bad. NArcoterrorism is bad. Pretty sure blowing up ships from sovereign countries and imposing the death penalty on them is also pretty, pretty bad.

Drug use is bad

Breaking the law is not good, and the government breaking the law is especially not good.

They weren't trying to get into our country. They were far far away and this had nothing to do with us.

International Law, should then be in effect, which Trump and the US Navy broke.

Q: On the Venezuela vessel strike, what legal authority were you guys working under?

JD VANCE: The legal authority is there are people who are bringing -- literal terrorists -- who are bringing deadly drugs into our country


So they think that dinky little open pit boat was making its way from venezuela to the US? Ugh, the people really don't think much of MAGA's brain power.

And to think, JD Vance went to Yale Law School.
