[SaintsInDome2006 620]

Well well, the USA is not prosecuting the survivors. Instead we’re letting them go.

This is like saying the municipal driving code is a license to kill. I think they may have actually fired all the lawyers. Not even reaching for an AUMF here.

When I click on this thread I'm always hoping to see yet another example of Trump blowing up another drug running ship. 

Then I see squidtard and timhack making dumb comments. Still. Bummer it's always the raging liberals whimpering and crying about Trump yet again.

Colombia says this was a murder.

It was a distressed fishing boat.  Trump said it was a fentanyl submarine.

And they can actually provide a name of a person that was killed unlike us.

This is really bad, shameful stuff. Trump has a series of insane, truly deranged social media posts on a number of subjects this morning. In one he attacks our (former) ally Colombia (referring to them as “Columbia”). 
 

If the last vessel attacked was a ‘drug submarine’ we should be interrogating the survivors, prosecuting them, uncovering their network, unveiling the evidence of what the US has been claiming. But instead we just release them. We’re acting like a criminal outlaw state right now.

This would be a better argument if the US had held the survivors.

Actually, the better argument is why are you believing a totalitarian leftist government like Columbia?

Good lord man, we’ve been aligned with Colombia through both parties for decades, militarily, in drug enforcement & trade. They’re a bulwark against Venezuela.

Correction.  We HAD been until Trump turned the money-spigot off.

I'm going to repeat the question:  Why are you taking the word of a leftist authoritarian government over that of YOUR OWN country?  Did you attend the Hate America rally yesterday?

I think I answered you. If your business partner claimed he was taking money out to pay for important business expenses & then you ask for the receipts & he says ‘whoops threw it away’, what are you thinking? I’m thinking he’s full of it.

Except that's not what happened.  That's you making up more strawmen in a feeble attempt to take the word of a leftist authoritarian government over that of your own.  You can spin it any way you want, but your position is untenable.  All because you're so consumed with TDS that you can't even think straight.

You’re saying there were no survivors?

I’d say the person who claims to be the leader of the world’s most powerful nation yet can’t spell the name of the country who he’s at war with alongside fantasy images of himself wearing a crown is the deranged one.

I am not shocked by the amount of incompetence and lawlessness we've seen.

What I am shocked about is how Republicans approve.

Any maga supporters want to take a rolling hook shot guess at why we are NOT attacking ships from actual communist enemy Cuba, a major drug trafficking nation which is closest to our border than any other non-adjacent country?

Has nothing to do with Colombia.  If we have evidence they’re narcotraffickers why are we releasing them?  Occam’s razor says we don’t have that evidence.

No, you misunderstand.  The Department of War is supposed to report directly to Ghey_Artest or SIDS before they make any moves.  Don't you iknow that's how it works now? 

Of course, it didn't work that way during the Biden administration with their cowardly and inept withdrawal from Afghanistan.  Back then Ghey_Artest or SIDS didn't ask any questions or demand any reports from Biden.  Weird, huh?

He’s a homophobe, so he considers that an insult.  Similar to Riley Gaines

Yup.  And Trump got mad that they called it murder so is threatening tariffs. Hopefully he spells it right and they don’t get applied to Columbia South Carolina instead.

If they didn’t have evidence before attacking the boat then that’s exactly the basis of the claims against the US.

Please explain how it’s possible they had evidence before blowing up the boat but don’t have it now.
