Republicans and Democrats say the administration is failing to share basic information with Congress about the intelligence, rationale and goals of its war on drug trafficking.
Members of Congress are growing concerned over a lack of information from the Trump administration about the intelligence and strategy underlying its strikes on alleged drug smuggling boats in the Caribbean, six sources told NBC News.
Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill have left briefings about the strikes frustrated with the lack of information, said these people: five congressional sources and an additional source with knowledge of the matter. Some have asked for unedited video of the strikes, reflecting the kind of basic information they seek, but the administration has so far refused to provide it.
At a briefing a few weeks ago, Republican lawmakers were clearly upset with the answers they received, one of the congressional sources said.
The admin is failing to share basic information because that info will show they’re just murdering innocent people.
Or that Trump didn’t actually order the strikes and Stephen Miller did so he can jack off to “immigrants” dying.
IDK how Trump ever expects to get the peace prize by blowing up Colombian fishing boats. A real Peace Prize winning president knows to be rational and humane by bombing Yemeni weddings instead.
He doesn’t give a flying fuck if it’s real or not, he’s a dictator and dictators want to bend reality to their will and be praised for everything whether they actually did anything or not.
He did say his opinion is the only one that matters yesterday.
He’s the CEO of the United States, and the shareholders no longer have the ability to oust him
He is the obvious outcome of ‘running the country like a business’ which I got sick of hearing people say they wanted a couple decades ago.
The problem in running a country as a business is that they forget that the real “shareholders” aren’t the 1%. It’s the other 99%. Because that 1% would starve if it wasn’t for the other 99%.
The actual Noble Prize winner immediately went on Twitter, The Everything App, and begged Trump to bomb Venezuela harder. So he was clearly in the running.
Besides, Trump dutifully picked up the Biden genocide engine and cranked it as hard as any President since McKinley. He’s at least as qualified as anyone in the last ten years.
I suspect the only reason the Swedish Neoliberal Awards Committee didn’t hand Trump the prize this year is because he’d lose the incentive to do war crimes for the next three years.
Maybe if he finally drops an A-bomb on Nicaragua or starts a shooting war with China, we can talk.
I suspect the only reason the Swedish Neoliberal Awards Committee didn’t hand Trump the prize this year is
that it’s presented in Oslo by the Norwegian Nobel Committee.
But yeah, it’s not like giving one to Kissinger for his war crimes and another to Obama for an election campaign has established their selection process as based on peace…
Hey now, you’re forgetting about peacefully carpet bombing Cambodian villages or peacefully encouraging Marco Rubio to bomb your own country’s fishing boats.
There’s a lot of people you can bomb to win a Nobel peace prize.
He only cares about the prize because Obama has it and he doesn’t and he doesn’t care about the peace at all, so he’ll probably just keep pressing for it and disregarding the stuff he should be doing to get it, like he does with everything else. Then, some of his sycophants will join in and try to manifest it for him.
Members of Congress are growing concerned
Growing?
Concerned?
Really? At this point in time, why isn’t this “are in a full blown panic” or “are organising a coup”?
If you’re only “growing concerned” at this point, I wonder about the industrial amounts of THC that you’re consuming
It’s not a coup it’s impeachment and it’s in the constitution.
Concerned over POTUS’ failure to furnish information about extrajudicial killings of non-combatant civilians outside of an established theatre of combat where no declaration of war has been made?
I’ve got something for them to be concerned about, that’s a war crime that would fit the mandate of the ICC War Crimes tribunal. If China or Russia pulled this shit, everyone would flip the fuck out about blatant violations of established international legal norms. Call me skeptical, but if the war crimes trials following WWII couldn’t be bothered to secure convictions & executions for members of Japan’s Unit 731, nothing at all is going to happen to the member’s of this U.S. administration after they clear out.
Growing concerned
Uh oh, “growing concerned” might lead some of them to “feel uneasy” or even “have questions.” If Trump isn’t careful, one of them might even send a letter or request assurances that he’s learned his lesson and totally won’t do it again.
Brows reportedly furrowed
Susan Collins is THIS 🤏 close to shaking her head in consternation!
GROWING concerned?? Where have they been for the last fucking DECADE?! 🤦
Happily signing the checks. Why, was that wrong?
/s
Republicans and Democrats…
Don’t give me this bullshit. 2 Republicans supported this, opposed to all Democrats except 1.
I never got the complaints about Manchin. He had morals and was left of everyone in the GOP ,and he was in a seat that pretty much could go any further to the left.
Fetterman can eat a bag of ducks though. He’s literally just appealing to Republicans like he’s about to flip.
I never got the complaints about Manchin
You mean the corrupt coal baron who never met a fossil fuel project he didn’t love?
He had morals
Not really, unless you only count church morals and forget about the whole “bear false witness”, exploitation of the struggling poor, and stuff like that which Jizzy Chrizzy would be vehemently opposed to.
was left of everyone in the GOP
Nope. That’s a SUPER low bar, but he still managed to tunnel under it often throughout his long and disgusting career.
and he was in a seat that pretty much could go any further to the left.
No. West Virginia is majority in favor of Medicare for all, UBI and several other progressive policy positions that neither billionaire-owned party has championed.
Fetterman can eat a bag of ducks though
Quite a big one too, by the size of him. Maybe even a barrel of turduckens!
He’s literally just appealing to Republicans like he’s about to flip.
Yeah, he’s absolutely atrocious. Which is why the DNC propaganda machine is probably going to spend tens of millions defeating whomever primaries him from the left. Them and their
ownersallies AIPAC, who adore him for obvious reasons.Fetterman legitimately has brain damage and has turned republican by virtue of being pissed and confused 24/7 without reason
The dipshit traitors who conceded their power to a king are concerned the king has gone mad?
Bring back the guillotine.
The Supreme Court has already ruled that the President does not need to follow the law as part of his Official Duties. The only check on a law-breaking President is Impeachment.
So, the Administration will keep ignoring Congress as long as Republicans shield him from the consequences of that.
I highly doubt that these incompetent Nazi wannabes even have credible evidence that those boats they’re destroying have criminals or if they’ve done anything that deserves capital punishment. It’s straight up murder.
Hell even if these boats truly were driven by solely cannibalistic serial killers who only ejaculate after giving children drugs which kill them this still would be wrong.
The next thing they will be saying is “We were just following orders.”
Is the Sargeant at Arms arresting anyone? No? Then everyone is complicit.
don’t worry. OAN will tell them the approved story.
Oh God I’m so startled!
