Democrats are struggling to land an attack on President Donald Trump’s administration for destroying alleged narco-terrorists.
The Trump administration has ordered multiple strikes on alleged drug boats. The Trump administration says these strikes have prevented the drugs from being smuggled into the country.
California Democrat lawmaker John Garamendi suggested that these boats might have been carrying suitcases instead of fentanyl.
“There’s no public information that these boats are in fact carrying drugs," Garamendi told CNN. "You can see some packages in the boats, I don’t know maybe they’re suitcases.”

However, a naval lawyer backs the strikes, Townhall reported.
I've taught the Laws of Armed Conflict to U.S. and mult. allied troops. It's comical to have online experts inform me:

Oops. Even ABC News had to admit it…the narcos who survived the first drone strike weren’t running. They literally climbed back on the boat to save the drugs. Sorry, Lefties, but we got receipts 👇

Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) claimed she had seen the “double tap” U.S. military strike video and labeled it “very disturbing” — only to later state that she has NOT actually seen the *classified* footage of the September strike on the narco boat.

CNN’s Dana Bash: “You have seen the classified video of the this particular strike?”
Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL): “No, I’ve just seen what’s been available in the media.”
Apparently the entire mainstream media and Democrats are all worked up today over the death of two narco terrorist “fisherman” from a second strike on their drug boat.

The Trump administration says that illegal, laced drugs killed about 300,000 Americans last year.
REPORTER: "Mr. President, with the boat strikes, if it is found that survivors were actually killed while clinging on to that boat, should Secretary Hegseth, Admiral Bradley or others be punished?"

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth backs the strikes.
As usual, the fake news is delivering more fabricated, inflammatory, and derogatory reporting to discredit our incredible warriors fighting to protect the homeland.

Illegal drugs kill HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of Americans every single year.
