I'm against the distraction of the Venezuela / Caribbean focus dummy. I'm all for sinking these guys, but we are focusing on the semi-pro league running around just off the coast of Venezuela when the real action is in the Pacific and overland beginning just north of the Panama Canal.

I think we only sank one boat a few weeks ago and nothing more since then.

Plus, what do I care if the Euro Trash snort the stuff. That's where the Venezuela stuff is going. You don't have to take my word for it, you can take the DEA's and European law enforcement types. It's all there on the internet

Your silly "TDS" stuff won't work here. This has been a policy position of mine, publicly on here, for literally 20 years.

There's a lot more involved than that.

Specifically eliminating leftist economic policies like what we're seeing with the left and right populism in the US today.

Sure beats the status quo.

He’s raising awareness.

Maybe the most important thing ever for people who haven’t done anything else.

Your entire post.


Stop lying, Roger. I did no such thing.

By the time they OD'd I was no longer friends with any of them because they all went down that path. I can even remember the last time I hung out with them was a NY Eve night and they all had a punch bowl of cocaine on the table. Looked like a scene from Scareface. I left and never hung out with them again. Drugs were never my scene.

They were friends from high school who chose drugs when we got to college. I chose a different path, and never once did I think they were victims. I thought they were stupid for the route they chose and they paid for it with their hearts exploding

Think about what you said.


I have and it's a rational question. What information do you have which leads you to believe that the smugglers were transporting only one single, pure form of a drug?

While we know fentanyl precursors come from China into Mexico, there are also stashes which have been found in seizures in at least Colombia and Brazil which have contained fentanyl-laced heroin or cocaine. While these trace back to medical stockpiles rather than clandestine manufacturing, it's more of a stretch to think there isn't more out there and at least some of that is what's being smuggled north.

Beyond that, even if it turns out that every one of those boats was carrying only cocaine and nothing else, it's not the "gotcha" you want to portray it as. Your attempt at a point is like complaining that a group thinking they were busting a pedo ring busted a ring trafficking in kidnapped and drugged grown women instead.

What's your issue with the truth?


Your version of truth is always skewed by your attempts at manipulating, misrepresenting, framing of facts.
Also, regardless of Trumps motivations for attacking the drug runners the goal is being achieved. Trumps actions toward Venezuela is more than a war on drugs, it's about jerking a countries corrupt government that supports Chinese, Islamic terrorism, and drug trafficking.

The boats are taking mainly cocaine into the Caribbean, where they are trans-loaded and sent off to the US, Europe, Africa, etc... The vast majority of the Coke goes to the US as we are the world's largest consumer by far. The bulk of the Fentanyl is coming in from Mexico through the ports of entry.

But you know all this already and you are just trying to be a prick again.

According to the people who know, Europe is the destination for Caribbean-bound drugs.

The stuff up the Pacific may be coming here.

Literally decades of history and data on producer countries moving their drugs?

And you ask me for data/information

The literal justification for the attack is fentanyl.

Nobody would give 2 shits about attacking cocaine shipments in 2025. 40 years ago? OK, but we have learned over that 40 years it's pointless.
