Trump Tells Congress U.S. Is at War With Cartels: What That Means​

President Donald Trump has declared that the U.S. is in a formal “armed conflict” with drug cartels in a confidential notice to Congress.

The notice, obtained by the New York Times, labels suspected drug smugglers as “unlawful combatants,” and seeks to justify the Trump Administration’s three military strikes on civilian vessels in the Caribbean sea last month as part of a sustained active conflict. The strikes, which experts said were likely illegal and amounted to extrajudicious murders, killed a total of 17 people.

Rand Paul: 'All of these people have been blown up without us knowing their name'​

Sen. Rand Paul on Sunday questioned the wisdom and legality of President Donald Trump's policies toward Venezuela and suspected drug dealers coming from its coast.

Speaking on NBC's "Meet the Press," the Kentucky Republican again raised concerns about the legality of the Trump administration's strikes on boats that it claims are carrying drug traffickers, as well as the president's statement that the United States might conduct direct attacks on Venezuela's territory.
