"Also that day, Trump’s Pentagon posted yet another snuff video of a drone-strike summary execution of two men aboard a boat in the Pacific, who were alleged to be drug traffickers but who — based on other recent mishaps — could have been humble fishermen. And you already know about the Iranian schoolgirls, the ICE detainees, Renee Good, and Alex Pretti."

The US MIL on Sun:💔3 men:➡️killed when it struck a boat it claimed was “engaged in narco-trafficking ops” in the EPO.
Trump admin:🚨hasn't provided definitive evidence that the vessels it has been striking since Sept are involved in drug trafficking.
