😃

[rxsid]

Yes, that would be great!

[larrytown]

I guess we’re not arresting them anymore...

[waterhill]

Not surprised.

[one guy in new jersey]

Any further deets?

[Samurai_Jack]

ya this is going to escalate. The cartels are going to war and they’re going to lose. But there will be casualties.

[right way right]

Uh oh, I hope we don’t get attacking cocaine sharks now.

BOOM

[VanShuyten]

Which flag was the “drug vessal” sailing under?

[Da Coyote]

A Dorkbama/Biden “judge” who imagines that he/she/it/whatever has power to control Venezuela coasts will issue one of the standard DemocRAT pretend-judge injunctions banning this in 3,2,1....

[Forward the Light Brigade]

Looks like war is coming.

[Vendome]

And poisoned all the sea life?

designated narco-terrorist organization

Unless there are people swimming away from Venezuela with inner tubes and styrofoam, most anything else leaving Venezuela is from the narco-terrorist Maduro dictatorship.

Did we ask the ship to stop and be boarded? Did they fire on us? Whatever the case, good work US Navy

Perhaps we had drone coverage and watched them loading the boat.

All in all, a very good start.

[Allegra]

I hope and pray not. 🙏

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Yes! Monroe Doctrine Revival.

[Tell It Right]

Looks like war is coming.

The modern day opium war has been going on. Trump is making sure we don't lose it badly like China did the first and second opium wars (seceding land to the Brits).

I’m guessing it was with a MH-60 helicopter or MQ-9 Reaper 🤔 OUTLW71 (pronounced on the radio as OUTLAW, MH-60S Sikorsky helicopter) was visible on @flightradar24 around 1600 zulu/GMT today which was around noon eastern standard time about 2 hours before today’s Oval Office news conference. Hopefully the US DOD will post some pics or video. https://t.co/ZFnApwTlbv pic.twitter.com/P7WeH2nRmQ— Thenewarea51 (@thenewarea51) September 2, 2025
