Maybe these are decoys......................

They blowed up real good. They may have better luck buying lottery tickets.

[Karliner]

They should ask politely for samples before blowing them to kingdom come./s

Also ask how they’re feeling and if we could provide services and therapies, maybe a new job, family outreach like we do in ‘Merica

…”falsely?”

The Times loves criminals and commies. What’s new?

[tumblindice]

A federal district court judge appointed by FDR just today ordered Pete to stop blowing up her suppliers.

The Slimes can take its phony “fact checking”, roll it all up, and stuff it.

The relevant facts here are that another drug boat bit the dust. That is all.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

The druggies are all sad and stuff.

[toddausauras]

76 less criminals coming here.

[central_va]

The “far left” New York Times never ceases to protect evil.

[JBW1949]

I would safely bet that the President and his administration knows much more about if these are “drug boats” than does the New York Slimes...

[SaxxonWoods]

When this started the press and liberals screamed it was illegal.

But I don’t hear anything about that lately.

[LouAvul]

most of those deaths are a result of fentanyl, which comes from labs in Mexico. South America produces cocaine

So the author of the Slimes wants the cocaine let through? But, stop the fentanyl?

Rand has a sad

When the Gray Whore is screeching her loudest, you know you’re over the target. Bombs away, lads!!

[Romulus]

So I guess we’re not gonna be going after the big guys.

[Steven Scharf]

They are going to eventually run out of boats.

[Paladin2]

How much cocaine does Rand use?

[Labyrinthos]

Mr. Trump has falsely asserted that each destroyed boat saves 25,000 American lives. In reality, as many as 100,000 Americans die each year from drug overdoses, but most of those deaths are a result of fentanyl, which comes from labs in Mexico. South America produces cocaine.

"Falsely" and "in reality." According to whom?

Trump never claimed that each interdiction prevents 25,000 overdose deaths. Not all death arising out illegal drug trafficking are overdoses. Many deaths are the result of territorial disputes among the cartels and local drug gangs on the ground in the USA.

So what if South America produces cocaine but not fentanyl. Cocaine is often cut with fentanyl, which is a deadly combination. Heroin which is produced in Columbia and possibly distributed through Venezuela is also cut with fentanyl.

Lastly, how does the NY Times know that Venezuelan gangs and drug cartels are not part of the fentanyl trade? Although most fentanyl entered the USA from Mexico during the Biden administration, Trump has effectively closed the southern border, and as a result, the cartels may have opted for alternate distribution routes through Venezuela.
