Epic on all levels. This looks like something straight out of "Sicario," and I'm here for it. It's been a long time coming, and hopefully, it's just the start.
Trump announced the following details about the strike on Truth Social:
"Earlier this morning, on my Orders, U.S. Military Forces conducted a kinetic strike against positively identified Tren de Aragua Narcoterrorists in the SOUTHCOM area of responsibility. TDA is a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization, operating under the control of Nicolas Maduro, responsible for mass murder, drug trafficking, sex trafficking, and acts of violence and terror across the United States and Western Hemisphere. The strike occurred while the terrorists were at sea in International waters transporting illegal narcotics, heading to the United States. The strike resulted in 11 terrorists killed in action. 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. BEWARE! Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!!!!!!!!!"

Line ‘em up and knock ’em down. The cartels think they're real tough. Turns out it took a single missile fired from above to ventilate their boat. What a truly beautiful video. I can't wait to see where Trump goes from here. Let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
