I just saw a CNN article explaining the boat that was double-tapped (illegal, by the way) by the Navy wasn’t even headed to the US! Great!

Anyone seen those Epstein files, yet?
They were on that boat. : D

One interesting note: Rubio said on the day the murder was announced in September that the boat was probably headed toward Trinidad or another Caribbean nation. Apparently, his instinct to tell some truth to the public was corrected overnight and he echoed Trump’s lie the next day.

The whole operation is nonsensical if protecting American lives Is the goal. The primary drug threat to American lives is fentanyl, which is not produced in or shipped from Venezuela. And Venezuela is not the main source of cocaine that is smuggled to the US. As the article notes, the crew that the US murdered was headed for Surinam, a hub for smuggling cocaine into Europe. This was the predictable result of giving the guy with absolute pardon power a stay out of jail free card.

Isn't the suggestion that his military attacks are for a reason other than to prevent drugs (from entering the country) dangerously close to a conspiracy theory?
What a stupid and shameful response to what I posted. I know you’re still massively butthurt from your retarded take on 9/11 being rightfully called out by the not-stupids on this board, but to make this thing you’re doing your shtick is disappointing.
Wow. That, too, escalated quickly. Are you feeling O.K. lately?

Was your take from that thread anything other than to trust the mainstream reporting of the situation? If not, what was it?

I see you’re going to continue to deflect. What kind of reporting would you trust with this news story?

Tom Cotton stated that the drowning baddies were trying to ‘flip the boat over and rejoin the fight’.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/entertainment ... NewsBrowse

That raises a couple of questions:

1. How would they rejoin the fight? Throw wet bales of drugs at the passing drones?

2. Would we not need to reassess Whiskey Pete’s claim of ‘maximum lethality’ if a United States drone strike can’t sink a small speedboat in a single pass?

For sake of clarity, please clarify the referenced person (emphasis added) with more clarity. Thanks.
Ban Whiskey permanently if that's the only way.

Given your statement:

and apparent trust in the mainstream media, please explain yourself. Thanks!
