Pete Hegseth Drug Boats Orders

So if we shoot first ask questions later, or in this administration, shoot first and never ask questions.... what to stop them to pull all convicted drug runners/pushers and kill them on the spot? Its apparent, that rule of law does not exist in this country.

Especially when the US President is a convicted Felon....

Its just alarming to hear that the Department of Defense Pete Hegseth wants the kill them all when the boats are blown up. Where is the Law?

But that's true for a lot of thing. We send San Diego cops into Tijuana to arrest somebody, "Location!"

Or even Idaho cops into Spokane.
