Trump really has some horrendous military advisors. You’re suffering massive war resource losses in West Asia, actively spending billions on war resources there and now boots on the ground in South America.
Really living up to Reagan’s war on drugs and Bush’s war on terror at the same time there, Donny
Oh, Donald. You and your uncontrollable and unwinnable wars. 🤦 Obviously it’s not just you, it’s also many people in your admin, but still.
Based on your source apparently it’s carried out in collaboration with the Ecuadorian government.
It is. Trump has been putting significant pressure on Latin American governments to assassinate and arrest cartel members. This is part of the reason why the Mexican government went after El Mencho.
The Trump admin has already put significant sanctions on Colombia for resisting.
seriously??? my god???
