Morning Joe To Military: Consider Disobeying Trump Order To Fire on Drug-Smuggling Boats
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 09/08/2025 8:57:10 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

On today's Morning Joe, MSNBC analyst and Washington Post columnist David Ignatius admitted that the people on the boat that the U.S. military fired on in the Caribbean "were associated with the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. I'm sure they're terrible people doing despicable crimes."

And while he first said that they "appear to have been drug smugglers," he later flatly described them as "drug smugglers."

Even so, Ignatius suggested that members of the military should consider disobeying the orders of President Trump, the Commander-in-Chief, to fire on such boats.

These events from now on should be unreported. Kill as many drug runners and dealers in as many ways possible, just don’t brag it.

Will you serve their sentences for them, Joe? Will you take of them when their careers are ended?

That wasn’t bragging, that was warning.

Had MSNBC been a thing back in WW2:

“Don’t fire on those Japanese warplanes! Some of them might be on humanitarian missions! They might even be carrying children to school!”

POTUS Trump should now arrest Morning Joe and do it live on his broadcast.

Sounds like Tokyo Rose and one of those women was convicted of treason after being arrested upon her return to the States after the war.

I don’t know a gunner or FC worth his salt that wouldn’t blow a drug runner to smithereens one nano second after “batteries released” is ordered. Not one.

Sink em all, make shipping drugs a dead end profession. Then go after the factories and the cartel leaders and their palaces.

Tell me morning joker, are you prepare to accept the penalty for disobeying a military order?

Pretty sure David Ignatius is begging for an ass kicking.

Hey Morning Joe.

130k Americans dead every year from Drug Overdose. #1 cause of violent crime, drugs. Number one cause of murder, drugs. Just because it hasn’t been devasted your family doesn’t mean everyone else in the US hasn’t felt it.

The ‘NATIONS’ that participate in pouring drugs into the United States have committed grievous acts against the United States people. Drug cartels and Drugs are one thing, STATE sponsored cartels, gangs, and Drugs is act of war. I don’t care what Trump does to Venezuela now, they got it coming.

I will gladly volunteer to ride along and pull the trigger in case they chicken out.
