Staff ReportsThe bold moves by the Trump administration to take the fight directly to the narco-cartels aren’t just necessary—they’re long overdue. For too long, these violent drug traffickers have operated with impunity, poisoning American streets and corrupting nations just miles off our coast. The latest strike in the Caribbean Sea, which reportedly left a few cartel thugs alive after the obliteration of their boat, shows one thing loud and clear: Washington finally means business.
Make no mistake, the Left and globalist elites hate these strikes. They see America flexing real muscle—a real defense of our borders and interests—and their usual line about “human rights” and “legality” falls flat. Critics like Rand Paul, wrapped up in legal technicalities, refuse to acknowledge that we are fighting an unconventional war against terrorist cartels, not a polite overseas conflict. These groups are not just criminals—they are enemies of America who thrive on death and destruction. If we keep playing with kid gloves, these drug operations will keep ravaging innocent lives.

The Trump administration is right to label these cartels as terrorists. Their brutal tactics and disregard for laws make them hostile nonstate actors who threaten our national security. This isn’t some “law enforcement” issue that local cops can handle. This is war. And war demands decisive action. Through six known strikes so far, the administration has shown zero hesitation. That kind of toughness should be applauded, not attacked. The Left’s whining about “constitutionality” rings hollow when American families face the daily nightmare of drug epidemics funded by this very narco-terrorism.
Yet, amid the strikes, the fact that a handful of these criminals survived—even if injured—reveals the dangerous persistence of this enemy. The administration’s deployment of rescue helicopters is not softheartedness; it’s a show of our humanity alongside our strength. But let’s be clear: no sympathy or second chances should be extended to these cartel members when it comes to future engagements. Every strike like this sends a message to Venezuela’s lawless harbors and international waters: the United States will not tolerate havens for terror and drug trafficking.
The Trump administration’s aggressive posture exposes the hypocrisy and weakness that have marked decades of Democratic and establishment Republican policies. They talk tough but never act tough. Trump and his team are tearing down that feckless approach and securing American interests—even if it ruffles feathers among anti-American globalists. This campaign against narco-cartels forces us to ask: How many more of our people must suffer before Washington recognizes that sometimes war on terror isn’t fought in a distant desert but right on the Caribbean’s waves? The real question is, will the critics ever have the guts to stand with America, or will they always side with the cartels?
