NOW HEAR THIS: Suprise! SEAL Team Six on Ground in Venezuela
We are already living in a bad Tom Clancy novel!
Welcome to The War on Drugs 2.0-Trumpy Murder edition.
The Washington Post article states that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth ordered the commanding admiral of the US Special Operations task force to sink small boats to not only attack vessels suspected of smuggling drugs, but to “kill them all“ when survivors were seen in the water. These are clearly war crimes because the Geneva Convention says armed conflicts start when one side attacks, even if the other side doesn’t recognize it.
However, an essential part of the article has been misstated. SEAL Team 6 is NOT the force carrying out armed attacks on boats from the air or sea. That was done by a US Air Force AC-130J Ghostrider gunship firing Hellfire missiles or laser-guided rockets.

GOP frets ‘dangerous’ result in Tennessee
Republicans won Tuesday’s special election in Tennessee. But instead of celebrating, many are dreading what it means about the midterms.
Republican Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps’ roughly nine point win marks a massive shift toward Democrats from 2024, when President Donald Trump carried the district by 22 points.
That double digit swing — on the heels of crushing losses in off-year elections in November — could be a harbinger of what House Republicans will face in the midterms next year, members and strategists warned, as they seek to hold on to their narrow control of the chamber.
