President Trump Revokes $700 MILLION in Payments to ‘Drug Leader’ After Strike on COLOMBIAN Ship, Issues ULTIMATUM
by Joshua C. 10 hours ago
Last Friday, President Trump greenlit an attack on yet another boat laden with drugs, running towards the US under the eye of US Southern Command.
But this boat wasn’t Venezuelan, as the others have been.
Rather it was connected to a dangerous group based in Colombia that Sec. of War Hegseth described as Al Qaeda-like.
That strike wasn’t publicly announced until this morning, a short time AFTER President Trump took to social media to call out Colombia’s President for being part of the problem.
Just before 9 A.M. Sunday morning, President Trump called Colombian President Gustavo Petro a ‘drug leader’ via a Truth Social post, holding him directly responsible for failing to curb that group’s actions.
And for failing to effectively use all the US funding that is given year after year, a good portion of which is intended to help STOP the narcotics exported from Colombia.
Besides issuing an ultimatum regarding further actions if Gustavo Petro didn’t start rolling up the fields of narcotics growing in Colombia…
But President Trump also slammed shut the spigot of American dollars flowing to Colombia.
Here’s the President’s post from this morning via Truth Social:
And here’s the full text of that post in case that’s hard to read:
President Gustavo Petro, of Colombia, is an illegal drug leader strongly encouraging the massive production of drugs, in big and small fields, all over Colombia. It has become the biggest business in Colombia, by far, and Petro does nothing to stop it, despite large scale payments and subsidies from the USA that are nothing more than a long term rip off of America. AS OF TODAY, THESE PAYMENTS, OR ANY OTHER FORM OF PAYMENT, OR SUBSIDIES, WILL NO LONGER BE MADE TO COLOMBIA. The purpose of this drug production is the sale of massive amounts of product into the United States, causing death, destruction, and havoc. Petro, a low rated and very unpopular leader, with a fresh mouth toward America, better close up these killing fields immediately, or the United States will close them up for him, and it won’t be done nicely. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President Donald J. Trump
