U.S. & Venezuela - Senate Republicans defeat Venezuela war powers resolution


Recommended Posts

Posted

The MAGA crowd are cheering Trump directing the military to blow up a tiny Venezuelan boat that barely had enough cocaine for a bachelor party (if it had drugs at all) without any proof of guilt or a trial.

So, civilians from other countries allegedly brining drugs to the US in international waters now merits the death penalty?

US military kills 11 people in strike on alleged drug boat from Venezuela, Trump says

WASHINGTON, Sept 2 (Reuters) - The U.S. military killed 11 people on Tuesday in a strike on a vessel from Venezuela allegedly carrying illegal narcotics, President Donald Trump said, in the first known operation since his administration's recent deployment of warships to the southern Caribbean.
 
"We just, over the last few minutes, literally shot out a boat, a drug-carrying boat, a lot of drugs in that boat," Trump told reporters at the White House.
 
"And there's more where that came from. We have a lot of drugs pouring into our country, coming in for a long time ... These came out of Venezuela."
 
He later shared a video on his Truth Social platform that appeared to show footage from overhead drones of a speedboat at sea exploding and then on fire.
 
"The strike resulted in 11 terrorists killed in action. No U.S. Forces were harmed in this strike," Trump said.
He added that the U.S. military had identified the crew as members of Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, which the U.S. designated a terrorist group in February. He repeated allegations that Tren de Aragua is being controlled by Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro, accusations that Caracas denies.

Wait...Ron is against blowing up terrorists?  Oh yeah, they want the US to be destroyed as much as he does, so I guess that makes some sense.

Is there any proof the 11 civilians killed were terrorists? And since when is allegedly bringing drugs to the US considered terrorism?

Ron called them terrorists.  So you should probably ask him, not me.  I just pointed out that he seems to be against killing terrorists.  I am not

ROFLMAO.  I love how libs like Gutterbanned and Squissy want Trump to set up a meeting with them and show them the "evidence" before he takes action to protect our country.

I find it odd how Presidents and the military can order and carry out mass murders and it's supposedly justified; just label them terrorists, but when other people kill they are labeled as monstera and sentenced to life in prison or executed. Weird world we live in. Just get enough people to agree with your God like decisions and okay to carry on with your life as usual. 

Remember this? Trump: I could ‘shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters’

It’s only a problem when Trump does it.

Probably so, but for me personally I have a problem with Trump doing it and when Obama did it.

So do I and I also spoke out against Obama (in a PSF or FFA thread) when he had a US citizen killed (who had joined ISIS or something like that).

Was that the 15 year old he had killed? Also it was more than one. You’re so deceitful.

I even think ISIS is a little different.   They are a terrorist organization that want to kill Americans.  Venezuelan gangs are not terrorist organizations that want to kill Americans, they want to make money from Americans.

For me it's only a problem when it's an American citizen.  I assume we have intelligence and don't just randomly shoot people, even if they're from other countries.  But I hold our government to a lower bar there.  U.S. citizens should absolutely receive a trial or at least have a warrant or charges before we just blow them up.

The reactions of democrats to normies once this whole defense of drug dealers doesnt work out will be great. 

This is murder! No due process! 

Please for the love of JD Vance, keep it coming.

Nope. Can't find the thread where I criticized Obama for killing a US citizen in a drone strike without due process (I am sure it is there somewhere)

However, I did say this in a 2012 Obama/Romney debate thread, Page 102: 😁

United States officially designated the Venezuelan criminal organization Tren de Aragua as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) on February 20, 2025. This designation was made by the U.S. Department of State, which also labeled the group as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT). 

Educate yourself so you don't sound so foking stupid all the time.

It’s actually genius by Trump to use POS drug dealers for target practice.  The folks that line their pockets with defense contract money will pipe down about sending arms to Ukraine Nazis.  We are blowing 💩 up somewhere else so the gravy train keeps running and our country will actually see a benefit.

You know who hasn't whined about this?  Venezuela.  You'd think if they thought these were just innocent fishermen or something that they would have filed some sort of complaint or at least commented on it but I haven't seen that.  Any of our resident libs got a link, or are you all just like the suburban white women speaking for all the inner city black folk?

Hahahahaha. 

Numbers are not hard.  Here I have some for you:

Final Answer:

ISIS and ISIS-inspired attacks have killed dozens of American civilians directly (both overseas and at home), and hundreds of U.S. service members in combat during the anti-ISIS campaigns.

The best civilian fatality estimate is roughly 80–90 Americans, including 5–10 killed overseas by ISIS executions and ~71 in U.S. ISIS-inspired terrorist attacks.

There is no publicly documented evidence or credible reporting indicating that members of Tren de Aragua have killed U.S. citizens. While the gang has committed violent crimes—including perceived murders and shootings that may have involved Venezuelan nationals—it has not been confirmed that any Americans were killed by the organization.

Now if you can refute that, go ahead.  Otherwise I'll just conclude you are full of sh1t.

America re-elected a liberal, and now hate and violence keeps on rising, shame.
