Republican Tim Burchett posted one of his talking-while-walking videos online on Tuesday after meeting with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth. Burchett says the two proved that everything about the Trump administration’s bombing of Venezuelan narco-terrorist drug boats is legal.
Have a listen. (WATCH)
🚨 JUST IN: Rep. Tim Burchett was just briefed by Sec. Marco Rubio and SecWar Pete Hegseth — and he CONFIRMED the narco-strikes are 100% LEGAL, saying lawyers are involved every step of the way.

Another narrative BUSTED.

Facts matter. Legal authority confirmed, oversight in place, and Americans safer because of it. The fear-mongering narrative just collapsed.

This is what we need. I'm so sick of everyone trying to start a coup over these orders!

The Democrats are lying to protect narco-terrorist. Think about that for a moment

That’s exactly what they are doing because they’ve painted themselves into a corner of always having to oppose everything President Donald Trump does, no matter how anti-American it makes them look.
Earlier on Tuesday, Hegseth laid out that the successful drug boat bombings would continue. (WATCH)

At the bottom of the ocean...crispy
This is good. Hit these terrorists hard wherever they are. Keep America safe.

Indeed. Carry on, crew. Totally fine with all of this....

The majority of sane Americans would rather see deadly drugs at the bottom of the ocean instead of flowing into America’s streets.
Meanwhile… on the insane side.

You’d think it’s parody, but it’s not.

No, it’s not a parody. In the war against drug cartels, the Democrat Party has decided the side of narco-terrorists is where they prefer to be. This explains why their approval numbers are at the bottom of the ocean, along with Venezuela’s deadly boat cargo.
