Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senator Jim Risch (R-Idaho) expressed his support for President Trump’s authority to strike narco-terrorists involved in drug trafficking during a Senate floor speech. Risch described recent attacks as justified actions taken to prevent ongoing threats from those bringing illegal substances into the U.S.
Claiming these strikes were in compliance with the President's constitutional duties, Risch emphasized the potential lives saved, stating, "Had that not happened, I guarantee you there would have been hundreds, maybe thousands, of people in this country who would have been killed."
He criticized a resolution proposed by Democrats to condemn Trump’s actions, suggesting instead that Congress should express gratitude for the President's efforts, labeling the opposition as a manifestation of "Trump Derangement Syndrome." Risch concluded with a call to continue the strikes against drug traffickers.
