Here's the video Trump just posted to Truth Social, with the claim that 11 people aboard the boat were killed. There is zero evidence of self-defense here. Looks like a massacre of civilians at sea. Even if they had drugs aboard, that's not a capital offense.

The really annoying part is that these gravy seals were never ever going to defend us against government tyranny. In fact they are more likely to side with the government and attack fellow Americans than they are to even realize what's happening

Trump said the video is AI. But a White House spokesperson told Time magazine it was real.
