Secretary of War Pete Hegseth posted a cartoon meme Sunday about the Trump administration’s military campaign targeting South American drug boats that drew outrage from liberals upset about the attacks. The post has gone viral with over five million views as of late Sunday night.
Hegseth posted a cartoon meme of Canadian children’s book character Franklin the Turtle titled “Franklin Targets Narco Terrorists”, that features Franklin on a military helicopter firing on drug boats, with the message, “For your Christmas wish list”:
Biden Defense Department spokeswoman Sabrina Singh, who worked for SecDef Lloyd Austin, posted, “Imagine any other SecDef posting this. And then remember they never would because they were serious people.”
California Democrat Congresswoman Sara Jacobs posted, “I fixed it for you” over a redone Franklin cartoon accusing Hegseth of war crimes.
Massachusetts Democrat Congressman Seth Moulton, “You’re a disgrace.”
Virginia Democrat Congressman Eugene Vindman, “Is this all just a joke to you @SecWar?”

Was the Democrat president in office when the term ‘droning’ became popularized?
“During WWII cartoon characters were depicted attacking Nazis and Japanese Imperialists, and no one took offense, because no one was a supporter of the Nazis or Imperialists.
The Democrats are offended because they are supporters of the narcoterrorists; the narcos must have to peso much to get such support.”
GREAT POINT! It’s also worth noting that some of the WW2 war FAR NASTIER than anything we’ve seen since, including this one.
...and I still wonder how ANYONE HERE can support the Democrats by sitting out November elections, because the Republican isn’t ‘pure’ enough for them.
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
I bet it broke a few liberTARDS.....

LOL...liberal panties in a wad, thongs riding up.
If modern leftists had been alive during WWII they would have complained that we should have put every enemy soldier on trial before we shot at them to give them “due” process.
But we know that every one of them got “due process”. Or, put more honestly, the process they were due.
Same with the illegals and the drug runners.
And it’s from Canada.
“”Virginia Democrat Congressman Eugene Vindman, “Is this all just a joke to you @SecWar?”””

No, Eugene. You and your ilk are the joke. A very not funny joke, at that.
The only thing that outrages me about this meme is the back end of the bazooka might harm the chopper...
Aside from this I love it!
“...because they were serious people...”
Yeah, the Puppet Biden regime was more concerned with killing American citizens than they were about going after foreign drug lords.
Lloyd Austin and Sabrina Singh are traitors, and should be dealt with accordingly. /spit
LOL
Backblast area all clear!
I voted for this -
putting WAR back into the war on drugs.
I’m thinking that launching a shoulder mounted rocket from inside a helicopter is a bad idea.
Spike Jones did a version of this. When my kids were little they loved it when I’d play it in the car. They laughed so hard at the raspberries.
Your right the back blast from a RPG
Would most likely take the helicopter down
Such a shame.
So true.
A lot of things are wrong with that picture.
Blasting narcoterrorists is not one of them.
