>Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth seem to be planning to go even further, with the president bragging that he wants to begin strikes on land and Hegseth moving 14 percent of the U.S. Navy fleet to the Caribbean Sea. It seems that a war has been declared in all but name.
They have no interest in actual governance and don’t know how to govern anyway. They are doing this shit to make it look like they are doing something. There is NO reason for any of it.

Can you imagine if they tried this crap with China sinking ships that are “crossing with intent to distribute fentanyl”. We’d be in a full blown war the first day.
This administration is taking the role of a bully from the schoolyard and applying that mentality to global politics.

So it’s murder then, just as we all thought.

They are presumably killing fishermen, people who happen to be sailing their boat at the time in those water or maybe just maybe drug smugglers. I am assuming it’s fishermen 99% of the time.

Can Hegseth be indicted for this? This is just straight up murder…

They just like killing people.

Trump & Hegseth are the terrorists
They are putting all Americans at risk of retaliation

I’m still waiting to see someone charged with polluting in international waters. What happens to all of the drugs/chemicals in the boats? Are we just too lazy to clean up after?

Its going to be interesting and pathetic to see the excuses maga makes for this

So, killing just for the sake of killing

So the U.S. is just murdering fisherman on fishing boats with multi billion dollar weaponry?

Fucking war criminals. Attacking civilian sea vessels in international waters is just… Wrong

“It might have been the USC sailing team. We literally have no idea. But, seriously, trust us, it is far better to let him blow up a few little boats in the ocean than giving him a chance to do what he really wants to do! I mean keeping him away from the kids of staff members, distracting him from pushing the big red button, and dealing with the diaper issues, our hands are full. A few innocent boaters is a small price to pay. Trust us.”

Where is the outrage about this?!? Where is the outrage from the international community?!?

I had a feeling that was what was going on. These people are psychotic.

Ask someone who supports this:
If instead, we boarded each vessel with the Visit, Board, Search, and Seizure (VBSS) Teams the Navy already trains on all its deployed ships, then if drugs were discovered, shot each member of the crew in the head and threw their bodies overboard (men, women, children if applicable), is that ok?
If drugs are not found and we still decided to shoot every crew member in the head, is that ok?
Just sinking every vessel is akin to both of these options at once.

Kind of telling on themselves when they capture two people alive and, instead of charging them, send them back into the country.
