Watch here: BREAKING: Trump announces the US military has just conducted a lethal strike against a Venezuelan drug cartel vessel in the Caribbeanhttps://t.co/rWJWJymJGV pic.twitter.com/gfylLzDwMM — Charlie Kirk (@charliekirk11) September 2, 2025 Fox News reported: During a news conference in the Oval Office on Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced the U.S. military “shot out” a drug boat from Venezuela in the southern Caribbean. “Over the last few minutes, [we] literally shot out a boat, a drug-carrying boat,” Trump said during the news conference. “A lot of drugs in that boat. And you’ll be seeing that, and you’ll be reading about that. It just happened moments ago. We don’t know anything yet about who exactly was on that drug vessel. But, the strike comes around one month after President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth deployed several U.S. warships off the coast of Venezuela in order to target drug cartels. CBS News noted: Details on the strike, including who operated the vessel, remain sparse. The strike came after the U.S. confirmed last month that the Navy would boost its presence near Venezuela, deploying three warships to the waters off the South American country as part of an anti-drug cartel mission. Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro called the ships an “extravagant, unjustifiable, immoral and absolutely criminal and bloody threat.” The Trump administration has accused Maduro’s government — a longtime U.S. foe — of working with drug cartels to traffic narcotics to the United States. It’s about time our military took action against these dangerous narco-terrorists… Do you support this?
