A Republican president so compromised he can neither "do Sicario," nor publicly try the world's most prolific drug trafficker, nor topple the Maduro regime and instead has to settle for a video killing a boat full of guys in sandals to save face.

Let's see the evidence. I'm sure it's very compelling and definitely not based on a single anonymous post online.

Pathetic that ABC News has sunk to parroting Breitbart-tier nonsense from a rogue administration that lies constantly.

While Trump continues unlawfully executing low-level smugglers with kg quantities of cocaine in the Caribbean occasionally, the USCG has seized 50 tons of cocaine in the Pacific since August, where the vast majority of cocaine transits en route to the U.S.

Time and time again, the Trump administration acts in favor of drug lords, brutal transnational gangs like MS-13, and terrorist financiers. It will catch up with them eventually.

We will be in a state of civil conflict or civil war if Democrats ever decide to resist White House efforts with the same level of intensity that Trump's team is using to tear down the Republic. Until then, we're just waiting for autocracy to become official.

Sort of implicit in this story is the fact that Bergen County, NJ features centrally in the escapades of Jeffrey Epstein and Senator Bob Menendez. Epstein used the Teterboro Airport for his sex trafficking flights and was arrested there in 2019.

Interesting story. The governor of Puebla (Alejandro Armenta Mier) was recently photographed arriving at the Teterboro aiport in New Jersey on a private jet. The governor previously claimed he was going on a trip to Arizona to discuss business. Why lie?

You'd think if they were really concerned with fentanyl and making an example of someone, they might consider perfectly lawful capital punishment for Sinaloa cartel leader Mayo Zambada or Guadalajara and Caborca cartel leader Rafael Caro Quintero, who personally tortured a DEA agent to death.

Interesting that the line of attack from the former "opposition" governor of Tamaulipas is focused on the alleged fuel tax evasion scheme rather than AMLO's chief of staff's firm facilitating the importation of fentanyl precursor to the Sinaloa and Gulf cartels.
