In reply to the discussion: Survivors of Boat Strike Were Actively Continuing Drug Mission, Admiral to Tell Lawmakers [View all]Retrograde

They were both Olympic-caliber long-distance swimmers. Makes perfect sense to me.

Any naval officer that thinks survivors of a destroyed boat are fair game needs to be removed from his position.

I expect that inane BS from a MAGAt but not an Admiral. Their x-ray vision showed drugs in packages?
