<\/a><\/p>\nAsawin Suebsaeng, Prem Thakker @ Zeteo<\/em>: Trump\u2019s Illegal Boat Bombings Are Just \u2018Murder for Murder\u2019s Sake,\u2019 U.S. Official Says<\/a><\/h2>\nDonald Trump\u2019s boat strikes aren\u2019t working \u2013 because they\u2019re \u2018not actually designed to end the fentanyl crisis,\u2019 a senior administration official tells Zeteo.<\/em><\/p>\nEven as national media coverage of it ebbed since last year, Donald Trump\u2019s \u201cMurder Inc.<\/a>\u201d at sea never stopped.

He and his administration keep propagandizing about how they\u2019re winning this war, making the U.S. safer, saving tens of thousands of lives<\/a> per strike, and keeping illicit narcotics off of American streets, all without actually knowing who they\u2019re killing<\/a>.<\/p>\nBut the bombings aren\u2019t just illegal or wrong. According to U.S. intel and government data described to Zeteo by several American officials and others familiar with the situation, the killing also isn\u2019t working. At all.
