President Trump Releases Video Of U.S. Military Striking Submarine Heading Towards U.S. Shores
by Anthony 14 hours ago
Unlike prior President’s in the United States, President Trump is taking the war on drugs seriously.
On Saturday afternoon, Trump confirmed on Truth Social that U.S. Special Forces has destroyed a large drug trafficking submarine that was navigating towards the United States.
The 47th President noted there was enough fentanyl on the submarine to kill 25,000 Americans.
Read Trump’s full statement he made on Truth Social below:
It was my great honor to destroy a very large DRUG-CARRYING SUBMARINE that was navigating towards the United States on a well known narcotrafficking transit route. U.S. Intelligence confirmed this vessel was loaded up with mostly Fentanyl, and other illegal narcotics.
There were four known narcoterrorists on board the vessel. Two of the terrorists were killed. At least 25,000 Americans would die if I allowed this submarine to come ashore.
The two surviving terrorists are being returned to their Countries of origin, Ecuador and Colombia, for detention and prosecution. No U.S. Forces were harmed in this strike. Under my watch, the United States of America will not tolerate narcoterrorists trafficking illegal drugs, by land or by sea. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

NPR reported the following details on the latest mission by U.S. Forces:
The two survivors of an American military strike on a suspected drug-carrying vessel in the Caribbean will be sent to Ecuador and Colombia, their home countries, President Donald Trump said Saturday.
The military rescued the pair after striking a submersible vessel Thursday, in what was at least the sixth such attack since early September.
“It was my great honor to destroy a very large DRUG-CARRYING SUBMARINE that was navigating towards the United States on a well known narcotrafficking transit route,” Trump said in a social media post. “U.S. Intelligence confirmed this vessel was loaded up with mostly Fentanyl, and other illegal narcotics.”
The Republican president said two people onboard were killed — one more than was previously reported — and the two who survived are being sent to their home countries “for detention and prosecution.”
The repatriation avoids questions for the Trump administration about what the legal status of the two would have been in the U.S. justice system.
With Trump’s confirmation on his Truth Social platform of the death toll, that means U.S. military action against vessels in the region have killed at least 29 people.
