Trumpâs Caribbean Narco-Drama: USS Ford Goes Island Hopping?
Senator Lindsey Graham confidently predicts land strikes against Venezuela as Trumpâs administration escalates its narco-war with at least 43 deaths from mysterious 'drug kingpins' floating somewhere between the Caribbean and the eastern Pacific. The USS Gerald R. Ford, the worldâs biggest aircraft carrier, casually cruises nearby, apparently to remind everyone this isnât just a beach party. Trump promises to 'probably' brief Congress but cheekily adds he might skip that formal choreâwho needs paperwork when you can just 'kill people that want to poison America'? Meanwhile, Sen. Rand Paul complains about no briefings and calls this extrajudicial chaos, while Sen. Ruben Gallego throws shade calling it âsanctioned murder.â Defense sec was too busy to comment, probably browsing memes. Welcome to Americaâs new Caribbean adventure, where war declarations are optional, but drama is mandatory.
