Summary
U.S. military strikes another boat in the eastern Pacific, claiming drug smuggling — two dead, six survivors — amid a surge of over 60 operations since September causing more than 210 deaths. While President Trump calls it an armed conflict against cartels, critics argue fentanyl mostly enters via land and question the legality and effectiveness of these maritime raids. A chilling follow-up: survivors from a prior strike were killed in a second strike, with the White House citing self-defense — but legal experts are raising alarms. Lawmakers demand unedited footage, and the Pentagon’s inspector general is reviewing targeting procedures — not legality. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
