What the ◊◊◊◊ is wrong with the Coast Guard? They capture a drug boat with 20,000 pounds of cocaine, and they don't drop a single bomb or kill anyone? Obviously, they didn't get the memo.

20,000-pound cocaine seizure by Coast Guard breaks 18-year-old record

A U.S. Coast Guard ship seized more than 20,000 pounds of cocaine from a single ship this week, making the largest at-sea interdiction in nearly 20 years, officials said.
The Coast Guard said the crew of the Munro, a cutter that patrols the Pacific and is based in Alameda, California, made the seizure during "counter-narcotics operations" in the Eastern Pacific. The incident was part of Operation Pacific Viper, an effort by the Trump Administration to stop the flow of illicit drugs through the Pacific Ocean.

The Coast Guard did not say what happened to the people who appeared to be aboard the vessel.
"Our maritime fighting force is leading America's drug interdiction operations, protecting the Homeland, and keeping deadly drugs out of American communities," the Coast Guard said in a post on social media, alongside a video clip.
