Democrats and their allies in the propaganda ‘mainstream media’ continue to wail at President Donald Trump and War Dept. Secretary Pete Hegseth over their strikes against narco-terrorist boats trafficking drugs killing 100,000 Americans annually. But it turns out one of their own once advocated for the very same policy.
In this instance, an individual unearthed a video from 1989 featuring Joe Biden, who was a Senator at the time, stating that the U.S. ought to target narco-terrorist boats. He even uses the same terminology that Trump and Hegseth are using to describe the offending individuals: “Narco-terrorists”:
“For the first time, we are fighting and losing the war on our own soil,” Biden said. “Let’s go after the drug lords where they live, with an international strike force. There must be no safe haven for these narco terrorists. And they must know it.”
As we like to say around here, it’s always (D)ifferent when their party does it. To be sure, I’m not expected anyone from the Donkey Party to be penning any “think pieces” about Joe Biden being a “war criminal” (or Barack Obama for targeting Americans with drone strikes).
The strikes on narco-terrorist boats in international waters are, of course, completely legal. The Trump administration formally designated these cartel traffickers as terrorists — which they are — giving our military every authority needed to take them off the playing field.
But that hasn’t stopped Congress from trying to kneecap the mission. Instead of supporting the effort to destroy violent drug networks, lawmakers jammed a demand into the $900 billion National Defense Authorization Act requiring the administration to cough up video of the strikes or risk having funds withheld.
