VIDEO: Chuck Schumer BLASTS Trump, Hegseth For KILLING Venezuela Drug Boat Survivors DELIBERATELY

Oneindia

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has launched a blistering attack on President Trump and Pete Hegseth, accusing them of deliberately allowing survivors of a Venezuelan drug boat explosion to die.    The incident — involving a Venezuelan vessel intercepted by U.S. forces — has turned into a major controversy after reports suggested survivors were left without rescue despite being visible in the water. Schumer is demanding a full investigation, calling the operation “a reckless, deadly failure of basic humanity.”    #DrugBoatStrike #VenezuelaDrugBoat #HegsethControversy #TrumpBoatStrike #CartelBoatStrike #VenezuelanBoatStrike #TrumpHegsethScandal #DrugBoatAttack #HegsethDrugBoatStrike #TrumpVsMaduro #VenezuelaCrisis #BoatStrikeReport #TrumpHegsethNews #DrugBoatBlast #VenezuelanDrugBoats #HegsethBoatStrikes #TrumpDrugBoatStrike #PoliticalFirestorm #USVenezuelaTensions #BreakingUSPolitics  ~PR.152~HT.408~ED.420~
