WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House said Monday that a Navy admiral acted “within his authority and the law” when he ordered a second, follow-up strike on an alleged drug boat in the Caribbean Sea in a September U.S. military operation that has come under bipartisan scrutiny.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt offered the justification for the Sept. 2 strike after lawmakers from both parties on Sunday announced support for congressional reviews of U.S. military strikes against vessels suspected of smuggling drugs in the Caribbean Sea and eastern Pacific Ocean. The lawmakers cited a published report that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order for a second strike that killed survivors on the boat in that September incident.
And they’re setting up the fall guy, not that it matters. The Bush Administration outed CIA agents for political reasons and nothing happened to their fall guy.
The classic two-pronged strategy of lying while simultaneously also lying.
All american soldiers are the modern equivalent of nazis. Bloodthirsty cowards and killers.
