On Wednesday on CNN’s “The Situation Room,” Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) said the Trump administration’s military strikes on alleged drug boats were a “catastrophic blunder” policy-wise.
Host Wolf Blitzer said, “You’re a key member of the Armed Services Committee so I want to ask you about what’s going on with Venezuela right now. Venezuela says it’s launching a massive military mobilization in response to a very significant U.S. military buildup of warships and troops in the Caribbean. As I said, you’re on the Armed Services Committee. You’re also on the foreign relations committee. Just how much latitude does the U.S. have right now to justify its naval buildup and the lethal strikes on alleged drug boats in the Caribbean?”
Kaine said, “Wolf, I think this policy is a catastrophic blunder. I was a missionary in Honduras. I’m the Foreign Relations Lead Democrat on the Committee of the Americas. I think treating this as a military intervention is a big mistake. You saw yesterday that our closest ally, the United Kingdom, has now stopped sharing intelligence with the U.S. on activities in the Caribbean and the Pacific near the Americas because they believe the U.S. strikes are violating international law. And when you amass such naval presence near Venezuela, you are dramatically raising the risk that Venezuela will, you know, pick up something on the radio or see a move and think they’re going to be under attack and then respond in kind.”
He added, “Venezuela has some very significant weapons that they’ve purchased from adversaries of the United States.

What Kaine means is God forbid Trump off their potential drug pushing voters
Pretty sure at this point that the cartel drug trade is a major source of income for the dems.
I find his built-in left eyebrow BS meter amusing. It arches higher and higher the bigger the whopper he is telling.
The UK is basically Muslim run at this point. They should not be trusted.
So which is it, Timmy? Are you worried about losing your money from fentanyl traffic, or losing your nose candy from cocaine traffic?
Is Tim Kaine homosexual?
Am honestly surprised that the MSM/left Hasn’t gone after Trump saying that drug-running boats were a decoy or something so the USA can steal the largest oil reserves on the planet while planning an invasion.
DC runs on drugs.
Since these boats are carrying cocaine rather than fentanyl, it’s people like Kaine most likely to be impacted. He’s probably pissed that his dealer has raised prices since these boats started blowing up.
“LOL! Do we really need British Intelligence for what is happening in that region?”
Well, there are about 27 movies that clearly show Felix Leiter being the helpful sidekick to James Bond.
“You saw yesterday that our closest ally, the United Kingdom, has now stopped sharing intelligence with the U.S. on activities in the Caribbean and the Pacific near the Americas because they believe the U.S. strikes are violating international law.”

UN-related laws and treaties, like the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), are not binding on the U.S. because they have not been ratified by the Senate.
Most Virginia voters were worried about their gubmint jobs.
They weren’t worried about America. They do care about all the illegal aliens though.
Someone is having withdrawal symptoms.
Tiny Tim Caine. The haters of America’s greatest friend.
I love that picture of the boob.
LOL...Irrelevant!
“Kaine: Trump Administration’s Strikes on Alleged Drug Boats ‘Catastrophic Blunder’”
The only blunder is in not obliterating the countries sending this crap into the USA.
And then identifying, arresting, and executing the drug dealers for their acts of premediated murder.
