Friday on MSNBC’s “Deadline,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) claimed lawmakers had seen “no evidence” the Trump administration’s military strikes were on drug boats.
Host Nicolle Wallace asked, “What briefings have you received on the success of striking drug traffickers? Have you seen evidence or images of drugs being found on the boats that have been struck?”
Blumenthal said, “What briefings? Zero. And as you may know, I think it’s public by now, there was a briefing for Republican senators only, which is unprecedented. So we’ve seen no evidence, none whatsoever, as to who is in these boats, more than ten of them that have been struck already, who are manning or operating them, what they’re carrying and where they’re headed.”
He added, “Nor have we received any briefing as to what their strategy is in amassing one seventh of our Navy, literally one seventh of all our naval power in the vicinity of Venezuela, whether it is to strike those military installations, as the Herald and the Wall Street Journal have reported they consider doing. And what the end game is. There was a briefing yesterday in the House for Democratic, as well as Republican members of Congress. And my discussions with those members of Congress indicates that it was completely unconvincing and virtually uninformative. So this administration is concealing facts. If it has facts that would justify such strikes.”

Well, your eyes are closed so...
More they line up to protect the drug cartels, process my point.
They are owned by the cartels and CCP and their policies are designed to help the cartels.
No police, decriminalization of stealing and drugs, free needles, facilities to shoot up in, homeless everywhere, etc.
The President could show Blumenthal hard evidence and this ass wouldn’t see it because he is too partisan, too corrupt and too much of a liar.
Maybe because “lawmakers” can’t be trusted with the intelligence means and methods being used to locate and destroy tons of drugs.
Especially HUMINT sources. The Beast got most of our networks wiped out in China because of her leaky-servers-in-the-bathroom-pay-to-play-wiped-with-a-cloth.
Half of congress and politicians are probably getting paid by cartels to turn a blind eye. From national to local level.
I think the ones that scream the loudest are the most guilty.
“Da-Nang Dick” Blumenthal stolen valor a-hole.
They have no evidence there were no drugs on those boats. The burden is on us to prove the drugs were there. The left has to prove nothing. Our administration has to answer to the Rand Paul’s out there as there are none on the left.
If it looks like a Dick….
Well none of these lawmakers has ever seen me but I can promise you I’m here.
Mr. “Stolen Valor” always speaks the truth! HaHa
Mr. “Stolen Valor” always speaks the truth! HaHa
Dickie boy big mad because he’s missing his cut of the operation.
Send a boatload of these Dems down to the Caribbean to see the evidence of the bales of drugs blown out of the cartel fast boats.
Tell them not to fear the glint of the drones in the sky above them.
Yeah, Dick. The only true drugs are the ones discovered in the Biden White House.
“...But facts of who these boaters were and what their cargo was should be established...”
This information and how it was received does NOT need to be distributed...
Stolen Valor “Danang “Limp” Dick”
They should have just hit an run and kept quiet. That would have started a cartel civil war. It really is perplexing why they want to take credit for this?
The CIA and CIC does not advertise....or need your permission for such hits.
Blumenthal: Those poor innocent fishermen in their $1.5 million boats which are not designed for fishing.
Yes. Just fishermen in their boats with 600hp engines at $80,000 per engine. I guess that fishing pays pretty well.
LOL!
