NO, KILLING NARCOTERRORISTS IS NOT A “WAR CRIME”

Fox News: Crenshaw defends alleged "double tap" strike

The left’s latest symptom of Trump Derangement Syndrome is fake outrage over a double tap drone strike that took out a Venezuelan narcoterrorist drug boat. People who have never served in the military and have ZERO knowledge about Rules of Engagement are calling it a “war crime.” Nothing could be further from the truth.

This was a lawful, deliberate strike, not a reckless rogue operation. And it’s exactly what we should expect our military to do when engaging hostile targets – like narcoterrorists who will stop at nothing to smuggle the fentanyl poison into our country that’s responsible for killing hundreds of thousands of Americans.

Our military is trained to finish the job when a threat remains. How do I know? Because I’ve been on real-world counterterrorism missions. I can’t recall any point in my time as a SEAL where we strike a group, whether that’s a building or a boat or a vehicle, and then we were, like, ‘Oh, well, there’s survivors. We have to go. We can’t kill them.’ Of course we killed them.

The outrage we’re seeing? It’s all manufactured and disingenuous. And as Marc Thiessen lays out in this article, even Democrat administrations routinely used this playbook. The only reason they’re suddenly “outraged” is because President Trump is in charge.

THE NEW DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS A SOCIALIST PARTY

Gavin Newson sums up the true intent of the Democratic Party

Gavin Newsom summed up the new Democratic Party’s brazen socialist philosophy this week: “If we don’t democratize our economy and allow for the distribution of wealth, our democracy will die.”

Let’s translate: “democratize the economy” is feel-good-liberal-speak for “government take over of the economy.” It has never worked and always leads to ruin. And redistribution? According to most measures we have the MOST progressive tax system in the world. The top 10% pay about 72% of all federal taxes. The top 1% pay about 40%. The top 50% pay 97% of taxes.

So yeah, the wealth is already massively redistributed. Socialists will never tell you what a “fair” tax rate is, will they? They just want more and more and more. There is no limiting principle, no underlying philosophy. Just the bitter politics of resentment, designed to mislead voters and bribe them for their vote.

This is the same socialist philosophy that has ruined countless societies and lives over the past two centuries. And America will meet a similar end if Democrats ever regain control of Congress and the White House.

SOCIAL MEDIA

There was no debate to be had here. This was a lawful strike.

It's funny that the loudest voices screaming 'authoritarianism'...
