Dem Sen John Fetterman backs use of military force to combat drug trafficking into US

His post featured a screenshot of a Fox News Digital article headlined, "Rubio promises more strikes on Venezuelan cartels: 'We're not going to sit back anymore'".

"The strike occurred while the terrorists were at sea in International waters transporting illegal narcotics, heading to the United States. The strike resulted in 11 terrorists killed in action," he declared.

The president's post featured footage of the strike against a boat.

"Please let this serve as notice to anybody even thinking about bringing drugs into the United States of America. BEWARE!" Trump warned in the post.

"And it'll happen again. Maybe it's happening right now, I don't know," Rubio said on Wednesday, noting that the president will "wage war" against "narcoterrorist organizations."

Fox News Digital reached out to Fetterman's office on Thursday to request additional comment from Fetterman or a spokesperson regarding the senator's apparent expression of support for the Trump administration's use of lethal military force to combat drug trafficking into the U.S. but did not receive a response by the time of publication.
