Yes. If this were really an effort to stop drug smuggling, the boat would have been stopped abd searched. If there were drugs, the crew could have been interrogated. Where did the drugs come from, where were they going, who are your bosses...like in crime solving.

A grade school kid could see that this is just a stunt. A vicious assassination for political distraction from:

Epstein Class escalation of unaffordability. Epstein Files. Epstein, Epstein, Epstein.

The Maga Nazis are failing and flailing.

Not fast enough, but they are going to lose. And there will be trials.

Part of it is Gail, but the main goal is the Oil...these poor boat people are pawns for the most part in a different game from drugs. Even if the administration can prove they are part of a cartel or drug running operation this is not "best practices" in any form or fashion.

Reminds me of Dick Cheney's statement about the cost of the War On Iraq: "Their oil will pay for it."

That's part of the technique, isn't it? Like the President of the United States actually saying that "Somalis are garbage." I read that close to 50% of the Somalis in Minnesota are American citizens.

There's some KKK DNA in that sleepy brain.
