WASHINGTON — So, the Pentagon's internal 'watchdog' – yeah, that’s a thing – is now 'investigating' those totally righteous airstrikes we’ve been dropping on drug boats in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific. You know, the ones that were actually MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN by blowing cartel scum to kingdom come.

Apparently, some pencil-pushing paper-shufflers are worried if we followed the 'standard six-step process' before vaporizing these 'narco-traffickers'. Six steps? Sounds like six reasons to get Americans killed by allowing the cartels to make even more money and put more fentanyl on the streets of America. The military operates by a series of steps...the cartels don't. Bet they didn't read about that in the memo.

This whole thing smacks of Swamp shenanigans. The Trump administration rightly identified these drug runners as a clear and present danger. Operation Southern Spear was a direct response to the flood of illegal narcotics pouring across our borders, poisoning our communities. And now, some unelected bureaucrats want to second-guess the brave men and women who are actually out there fighting the good fight? Get outta here.

Remember Sean Parnell? He was the Pentagon's spokesperson back in the day. He said these ops were 100% legal, totally compliant with both US and international law. But hey, why believe a straight shooter when you can listen to a bunch of virtue-signaling human rights groups who probably think El Chapo was just misunderstood?

The UN, those paragons of virtue, are clutching their pearls about 'extrajudicial executions'. Extrajudicial? When you're actively engaged in transporting enough drugs to kill half the country, you forfeit your right to a fair trial. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

And let's not forget Senators Schiff and Kaine, those champions of weakness, who tried to pass a resolution requiring congressional approval for every single strike. As if Congress isn't busy enough wasting taxpayer money on woke initiatives. Giving them more control over military operations is a recipe for disaster. If anything, these military operations shouldn't be slowed down by anything except the speed of light.

Meanwhile, the families of the dearly departed drug mules are filing lawsuits. Cry me a river. They chose to work for the cartels. They knew the risks. Their deaths are a tragedy, but a tragedy of their own making.
