  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...


President Donald Trump told Fox News host Sean Hannity on Thursday night that the United States is “going to start now hitting land” in its fight against drug cartels—framing the move as a response to what he claimed is cartel control of Mexico and a U.S. death toll in the “250,000–300,000” range every year.

Trump’s “hitting land” remark signals a possible escalation from the administration’s maritime-focused counter-narcotics campaign into operations that could potentially touch Mexican territory or cartel-linked infrastructure—an outcome that would raise major questions about sovereignty, congressional authority, and blowback along the U.S.-Mexico border.

It would be really interesting to hear from Big Media, the Democrats, and the Mexican Government as to why strikes on illegal drug labs are wrong, or something that shouldn't be done

Let them defend the criminals, then use that against them

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Strikes? What strikes?

Those things just seem to blow up on their own. :whistle:

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
