I don't get why people are making such a big deal out of this. Like, the guy who gets criticized is the president and his sec def has a weird sense of humor , but at the end of the day it's just another example of how messed up the whole "war on drugs" thing is. I mean, we're talking about people dying because of some stupid boat, like what's the point? It's not like they were involved in anything that had to do with actual crime... maybe Trump and his team should focus on solving real problems instead of trying to solve this super complicated one that they can't even get right
I mean think about it... if the Pentagon knew what was goin on with that boat, why did they wait till there were survivors left? It's like they just let things spiral outta control. And Trump's all "I didn't know" but like, come on Pete, don't try to spin this...
this is so messed up like what even is going on with trump's admin? all these people getting killed and still they're not taking responsibility especially with that defense secretary guy Pete... i mean come on, posting a mock book cover of a kids character shooting at boat crews? what is he even trying to say? and the fact that trump is distancing himself from this whole thing just shows how out of touch he is like we all know that those people didn't do anything wrong they were just innocent survivors trying to stay alive. it's not okay for us to just ignore the human cost of our actions and pretend like everything is fine
I'm not surprised by this whole thing ... I mean, the US is always doing some shady stuff when it comes to their 'war on drugs' . But this? A second strike on a boat carrying survivors? That's just plain crazy . And Trump distancing himself from it like that? Not buying it . If he really wasn't aware of the orders, then why is Hegseth denying them too? It sounds like a big cover-up to me . The international community is right to be outraged – this kind of thing is a total breach of human rights and basic decency . Can't say I trust Trump's judgment on this one... or anything else, for that matter
OMG u guys r going 2 b shocked!! so trump is all like no i didnt order 2 kill those 2 survivors but i dont belive him lol. i mean if u r gonna do somethin, u gotta own up 2 it. n the worst part is pete hegseth said he did give orders 4 civilians 2 b killed on that boat w/ out even tryna cover it up anywayz i think its super sus how trump's admin is all over drugs in the caribbean & pacific like they dont care about human rights or nothin. and hes still talkin bout bein a strong leader? more like a reckless dictator
I'm really worried about the whole situation with that boat attack... 83 people lost their lives and now there are questions about who was behind it? Trump saying he didn't order a second strike, but if Hegseth's statement is true, then... I don't know what to think. The UN Human Rights Chief is calling for an investigation into war crimes, which is totally fair considering the evidence. It's not about politics or blame, it's about people's lives lost and the need for accountability. The US has a reputation for being a champion of human rights, but if they're really doing this... I don't know if I can trust them anymore
