Trump Orders U.S. Military Action Against Terrorist Drug Cartels

[BeardedVol]

beginning at the 50 second mark Rubio touches on your plan to stop the drug flow and how it has failed for years.

At what part in the video does he articulate the measurable impact of blowing up the boat, and killing 11 people will have on narcotics use or distribution in the United States?

 

[Majors]

What does Venezuela export that leads to OD's?

Cocaine, but you knew that.

 

[Majors]

Do you support drone strikes on the Sackler family?

Sure, as soon as you can provide where they are classified as a terrorist organization. Took advantage of the pain society for profit, wreck communities and families. They are absolute trash. As well as the providers who over prescribed in the name of kickbacks.

I don’t see drug cartels doing settlements like Purdue Pharmaceuticals did.

 

[CagleMtnVol]

Odds on this happening again? Three times?

We should have the Fat Amy's pull up along side them and scare the out of the pilots. Keeping up foreign relations.

I don't follow the drug trade so no I didn't know that.

They check all the boxes except being classified as a terrorist organization, and how would that matter given their effect on US society has been the same or worse than the cartels?
That settlement with Purdue Pharma let them keep many $billions so I wouldn't give them too much credit for it.
Well agreed on them and the overprescribing providers being trash.

Thats not why I replied to your post. Drug interdiction hasn't worked and the US is moving on from that. There's nothing left to measure as the drugs and the terrorist are in Davy jones's locker.

So what impact will this operation have on narcotics use or distribution in the United States?

Are we going to sit 7 navy ships and a submarine in the Caribbean and blow up every small watercraft we see from now on?

Apparently they have done it again? I don't know how this works, but is there such a thing as obtaining radar lock and scaring the piss out of them?

I'm not sure if the ships AEGIS system gives radar locks on their targets prelaunch. They can do it with the F35s.

Trump going to war with Venezuela would be Vietnam 2.0.

Far from it but please don't take my disagreement with you as any kind of support for us going to war, there is none.

 

[tim]

Zero. But I do support the elimination of cartel leaders

 

[LSU-SIU]

yeah I am not the one in the extremes.

our strikes on Iran weren't large scale war, but you were against that. like I said you have a double standard when it comes to Trump.

Yeah its just bombing of nuclear facilities. I can't help you.

 

[LouderVol]

Yeah its just bombing of nuclear facilities. I can't help you.

I would agree that you are incapable of helping anyone.

Suspected Sinaloa Cartel Members Apprehended in 23-State Sweep By DEA​

A massive nationwide crackdown on the deadly Sinaloa Cartel has culminated in more than 600 arrests, officials say.

The big swoop included 171 suspects in New England, as part of a week-long operation that targeted one of the world’s most powerful drug trafficking organizations, according to officials.

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) announced Monday that from Aug. 25 to 29, agents arrested 617 people with ties to the cartel across 23 field divisions in the US.

The enforcement action, billed as a DEA surge, also netted a massive haul of drugs, firearms, and cash.

Among the seizures: 480 kilograms of fentanyl powder, 2,209 kilograms of methamphetamine, 7,469 kilograms of cocaine, 16.5 kilograms of heroin, more than 714,000 counterfeit pills, 420 firearms, and $11 million in cash.

Is 0 the same as countless? If so, maybe he's right. That's at the cost of not being able to see who was to receive and retail the shipment.

 

[LouderVol]

I am slightly less bothered because its the Coast Guard, and they were within gun range, and it looks like no one was on the boat which likely means they searched it.

good chance someone will not die as a result of these drugs being destroyed...

"For context, drug overdose deaths have risen dramatically over the past two decades, driven largely by opioids (including fentanyl), from about 19,000 in 2003 to over 100,000 annually since 2021. The 2023 rate was 32.6 deaths per 100,000 population." - GROK

you're 'somewhat' bothered because a boat full of drugs was blown up?

 

[McDad]

That was disappointing and anticlimactic.

I've seen better explosions in the backyard on July 4.

More like a ladyfinger in a canoe.

more details would make me feel better.

where was this? what was actually in the boat? was "blowing it up" the best answer-the chemicals in those drugs end up in the water, in fish, etc?
