Trump's strike claims about Venezuela don't add up and represent dangerous extrajudicial killings without evidence. The administration provides zero proof these boats carry drugs, kills defenseless civilians without trial, and makes absurd claims that each boat strike saves 25,000 lives when total annual overdose deaths are only 77,000. This illegal military campaign bypasses Congress and targets a country that barely factors into America's fentanyl crisis.
America finally took decisive action against Maduro's narco-terror regime with a Christmas Eve strike on a major drug facility. The operation represents a necessary escalation after months of successful boat strikes that have crippled drug trafficking operations. With the largest Caribbean naval force since the Cold War now deployed, the U.S. is rightfully pressuring a dictator who runs a criminal cartel masquerading as a government.
