Drug Boat Body Count Ops
Some might ask why these military operations were made public to begin with.
Operation Macho Swagger coming from a Dept. of War that wanted press organizations to sign agreements to work inside the Pentagon to keep the news under control.
The ops were initially made public maybe to take credit for results that had not yet been delivered. To make claims in advance that cartel product would be cut off from arriving in the 50 states.
Real Newspeople?
Real newspeople might ask:
Has any community anywhere in the US downsized or shut down any local drug task force, or narcotics enforcement team due to the success of Dept. of War strikes on narcoterrorist drug boats?
Any questions from newspeople?
When this trend kicks off, we’ll know that 2025 Vietnam-style drug boat body count ops matter in keeping cartel product from reaching drug addicts here at home.
More Questions
Is Kristi Noem’s giant and expensive US Dept. of Homeland Security completely irrelevant here?
Has the US Dept. of Homeland Security ever created any shortage of cartel product anywhere in the US?
Are the efforts of any federal agency or department causing local drug addicts to have any problem finding their cartel product of choice?
Is the Seattle fentanyl supply any different today than under Biden?
Homeland Security Is Ineffective In The Drug War
More than six months back, Kristi Noem deployed her ass kicking drug war road show.

Public Affairs efforts commence – the word goes out.
Cartels have been placed on notice.

Tough Talk Before The Epstein Files Flip Flop

All is well.
High levels of confidence in this businesslike event. Unfortunately, questions from the press were not picked up in the audio below.

The claim:
At 5:00 in the video above, the FBI director clams that various federal agencies will “…get all the drugs off the streets…”
“Almost 45,00 pounds of pure, uncut cocaine were seized and 3,800 pounds of marijuana, Bondi said.”
Under Kristi Noem
Cartels move product into all 50 states.
DEA High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas:
“…HIDTA-designated counties are located in 50 states…”
Welcome Home Troops. Thanks for doing time/risking your ass in Iraq and Afghanistan, working to keep a post 911 USA safe & secure.
Don’t worry-The Super Bowl and public affairs will be safe:
Welcome Home Troops
Common flashlight batteries are now locked up like diamond jewelry:

Kristi Noem is sealing off the border. Any day now, cartel drugs will no longer be available anywhere in WA.
People will no longer need cash to support a drug habit. There will be no more need to steal, and we can all go back to how things were in the last century.
Back to a time before the US Dept. of Homeland Security was established in 2002. This giant federal agency now has more than two decades of experience and lessons learned in working to prevent cartel product from entering the US. More overdose deaths now, or before DHS?
We’re not impressed.
Credibility squandered, enthusiasm dried up.
Macho Swagger
Watch Secretary of War Pete Hegseth takes thrilling fighter jet ride with ‘Top-Gun’ pilots:
Since 1986 Top Gun:
The US Dept. of Defense was nowhere to be found on 911.
We haven’t won a war since.
Decades after the lessons of Vietnam, it feels like the people who run the Pentagon specialize in undeclared/unwon wars. Is it understandable that young people and their parents and grandparents would take a dim view on all this?
Some Americans may be asking:
Did the advantage of US air power allow the undeclared wars in Iraq or Afghanistan to be prevented, won or shut down?
US jet aircraft have been able to strike targets in what wars won by the US?
The Press Has Failed
Over the past 35 years or so, newspeople have failed in their role of investigating and asking questions related to public policy.
In a free and honest society, newspeople would ask questions.
JFK speaks about the role of the press and voices of dissent in a free society:
Just Be Honest
This could be a slogan for government to live by, no matter what political party or personality is in power.
The US federal government has been involved in decades of various events where records were sealed or redacted and files were kept secret.
As the years went by, the public found out they were lied to.
Federal credibility is squandered over a period of decades. Now, people are scolded for wanting to be honestly informed on government activities. Well done. Something to get proud about.
Don’t lie to people and maybe they would be more patriotic.
