The U.S. carried out a strike on a vessel in international waters that allegedly carried illegal narcotics and was operated by the Tren de Aragua gang. The strike occurred while the vessel was at sea heading to the United States and resulted in no U.S. forces harmed. President Trump posted on Truth Social warning the action should serve as notice to anyone considering bringing drugs into the United States. Vice President JD Vance met victims of a Minnesota church shooting and fielded reporter questions, but declined to specify the legal authority used for the Venezuela vessel strike, saying the president ran on a promise to stop deadly drugs.
The strike occurred while the terrorists were at sea in International waters transporting illegal narcotics, heading to the United States. No U.S. Forces were harmed in this strike. Please let this serve as notice to anybody even thinking about bringing drugs into the United States of America, Trump announced on Truth Social. Vance fielded questions from reporters after flying to meet with victims of the church shooting in Minnesota last week.
Well, I'm sure there's going to be an after-action report. I mean, the legal authority, and I want to talk about these kids, is that there are people who are bringing literal terrorists, who are bringing deadly drugs into our country, and the President of the United States ran on a promise of stopping this poison from coming into our country," Vance replied, dodging the question.
