Important message to drug traffickers:

Don't cruise in a power boat designed for racing competitions
with 3 engines that go 100mph hoping that you can outrun a predator drone that
can fly faster and for 24 hours without refueling.

Those power boats can out run any navy ship to get away with crime
but not a predator drone. Roll Eyes

But gweggy says they were fishermen.

Maybe they like trolling lures at 100 mph.

I don't think they would catch too many bream whiting or flathead

There are very fast fish out there. Embarrassed

Donny can pretty much do whatever he likes.

He looked at the system and then broke all the norms.

This is called the paradigm shift.

Had those norms of presidential behaviour been serving the fine people of real America?

No

They had been serving the career civil servants , intelligence agencies, Washington lobbyists, big food. big pharma the defence contractors.

Donny marched into their corrupt system and overturned all the tables, just as jesus did when he marched into the temple and stopped the corrupt ruling Jewish elite.

The elites don't like it.

Useful idiots who side with the elites get very upset.

I'd suggest they learn how to navigate the new landscape.

Woke is dead. USA being the global policeman is finished.
An era of personal responsibility is dawning.

This was the vision of the founding fathers.
Small government and freedom.

Worth studying

Not really. Trump has just realised how much power the president has and how the norms of keeping all the rusted on
Civil servants was just a norm.

If previous presidents didn't want to take an axe to the Washington rusted on bureaucrats, it wasn't because they couldn't.

It was because they didn't want to fight a civil war with unelected bureaucrats who have a lot of power.

Donny , however, loves a fight.
He performs best when he is on the attack.

And they ( the powerful elite) don't know what to do.

Zuckerberg and the guys from CNN even went to mar el lago to link his ass.

He plays push pull with them.
Keeps them off balance
Chaos is his friend.
Unpredictability is his strength.

Even Elon who called him a pedo on X is back in the fold.

All the banana dictators do what they feel like. Guantanamo Bay was a good practice run. Exploding the survivors drowning in the Gulf of Donald is also good stuff. Trump sells Bibles and may sell Mein Kampf, signed by him as his own work. Stalin, Putin, Trump.

By breaking the law.

There's nothing admirable or unique in that.

Summarily executing people in speed boats fleeing at 100mph is illegal, no matter how much they were laughing.

Hi Greggy,
did you know that the artist known as Prince was killed by Fentanyl?

How could that have happened?

Hi Bobby,

Did you know that fentanyl in the US comes from Mexico, and is smuggled into the country by US citizens?

Also, summarily executing drug traffickers is illegal.

Precursor chemicals for Fentanyl come from China and they
are turned into Fentanyl in South American countries but also including Mexico.

The precursors come from China and India.

It's then turned into fentanyl in North America - Mexico, to be precise.

It's then smuggled into the US through ports of entry by US citizens.

South America plays no part in the process of supplying fentanyl to the US, and even if they did it's still illegal to summarily execute drug traffickers and manufacturers.

You seem to know a lot about it Greggy.
You should give a tip off to the FBI. Roll Eyes

It's common knowledge, Bobby.

South America plays no part in the process of supplying fentanyl to the US, and even if they did it's still illegal to summarily execute drug traffickers and manufacturers.
