Adm. Frank “Mitch” Bradley told lawmakers today that there was no “kill them all” order on an alleged drug boat in September.
According to the Associated Press, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) said Bradley “was very clear that he was given no such order, to give no quarter or to kill them all.”
Cotton also said the video of the strike showed the two survivors “trying to flip their boat back over and continue their mission.”
The Democrats, on the other hand, tried to portray the alleged drug runners as “shipwrecked sailors.”
From Fox News:
Still, [Rep. Jim] Himes said the full video footage of the Sept. 2 strikes showed that the two survivors were “shipwrecked sailors.”
“What I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I’ve seen in my time in public service. You have two individuals in clear distress, without any means of locomotion with a destroyed vessel, who were killed by the United States,” Himes went on. “Now there’s a whole set of contextual items that the admiral explained. Yes, they were carrying drugs. They were not in the position to continue their mission in any way.”
Himes made some outlandish statements yesterday as Elizabeth wrote this morning.
This all stems from a Washington Post article that claimed sources said Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered the military to “kill them all.”
Even The New York Times called out WaPo, pointing out that the article “did not provide context on when Mr. Hegseth gave what its sources described as a spoken order to kill everyone.”
Gee, and the media wonders why the Pentagon has placed restrictions on the media!

Straight out of the Color Revolution Playbook.
“Besides.......these belligerents are not eligible for protections from the Conventions of Geneva....so stick it up your a$$.”
Ship wrecked sailors and drug runners are not the same thing.
Hey Himes. Your Shipwrecked “sailors” don’t “sail” in speedboats full of drugs with three huge outboards on them. Your FOS boy.

The beat-down goes on...
Rep. Jim Himes is a Demonicrat, so his rantings can simply be flushed down the toilet as treasonous lies.

Your wish is our command, Andrew. Just sunk another narco boat.

Every new attack aimed at Pete Hegseth makes me want another narco drug boat blown up and sent to the bottom of the ocean. x.com/SenSchumer/sta…

Mr. President, you chose well.
One suggestion might be to use bigger, nastier missiles. Then use a ‘sea cleaner’ ship that picks up the debris and then air-drop the garbage on the area that the speedboat took off on. You know, just a warning. Some rotting human flesh in the drop along with a couple sharks wouldn’t be bad either.
From this link...
https://nida.nih.gov/research-topics/trends-statistics/overdose-death-rates#Fig8
“...Drug overdose deaths involving cocaine rose steadily from 6,784 in 2015 to 15,883 in 2019. From 2019 to 2023, cocaine-involved deaths rose 85% to 29,449 deaths. The number of deaths with IMF increased significantly since 2015 and is the main driver of cocaine-involved overdose deaths (Source: CDC WONDER)...”
IMF is illicitly manufactured fentanyl.
Note the huge spike between 2019 to 2023.
That wasn’t a coinkydink, was it...
What a waste of time! Look i will give the order, “Kill them all”.
There, it’s done, now go get it done.
Now that this one’s been “shot out of the water” it’s on to the next crisis. Lemme guess...”Trump labels his underwear by the days of the week”.
The Dims are seeing serious dropoffs in their Cartel payments.
I’m more worried about all those fish and sea creatures being exposed to those drugs and chemicals from the sunken boats.
A better order would have been...”Admiral,if everyone on that boat is blown to smithereens it would break my heart”. Or that great line from Hunt For Red October where the American sub Captain says “if he so much as twitches I’ll blow him to Mars”.
Now we know how sharknados form.
Anyone know what munitions are being used?
I’m surprised a second was required to finish.
I’d like to know how DemonRAT senate ahos know everything there is to know about the high speed delivery of drug cartel drugs to America that there is to know. How does that bonehead Himes know there were “two shipwrecked sailors” and that they weren’t just criminal drug runners?
I voted for this!
