F-35 Stealth Fighters in the Caribbean as Millions of Illegal Immigrants leave Labgor Force

1. Military Action Against Narco-Traffickers Reports that Trump ordered the Pentagon to use F-35 stealth fighters and military force in the Caribbean against drug cartels. Describes the destruction of a suspected drug-running boat off Venezuela with a missile strike, killing 11 people—framed by the author as a show of strength . Critics (including Axios, Human Rights Watch, and some U.S. officials) are portrayed as outraged, calling it extrajudicial killing and a departure from law enforcement norms. The article defends Trump’s decision, highlighting his reclassification of cartels as terrorist organizations , which grants authority to use military force against them. 2. Immigration Courts & Military Lawyers Notes Trump authorized the Pentagon to deploy up to 600 military lawyers as temporary immigration judges. The stated goal: reduce the massive backlog of 3.4–3.5 million immigration cases . Critics (media, immigration lawyers, Democrats) argue that military lawyers lack the training for immigration law and risk undermining due process. The piece frames these objections as politically motivated resistance and emphasizes Trump’s commitment to enforcing immigration laws despite opposition. 3. Labor Force & Deportations Discusses the decline of immigrant labor (both legal and undocumented) in the U.S., citing a Pew Research analysis that found 1.2–1.4 million immigrants left the labor force under Trump. Argues that this decline benefits American workers through higher wages and more job opportunities . Counters media claims (like from the AP) about crops rotting due to lack of immigrant labor, suggesting those reports are fearmongering . Suggests that “self-deportation” is happening, where immigrants choose to leave due to stricter enforcement and fear of ICE raids. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
