How much dishonesty can you cram into a single report? @AP is going for the record. Let& #39;s count (see thread. Also, what on Earth is an "anti-drug ship"?) https://apnews.com/d4c51884ba3ac6a4311b6f548434f958">https://apnews.com/d4c51884b...
"U.S. is moving naval ships toward Venezuela as it enhances counter-narcotic operations in the Caribbean following a U.S. drug indictment against Nicolás Maduro"

"[...]Maduro steps up attacks on his US-backed rival, Juan Guaidó. Maduro’s chief prosecutor ordered him to provide testimony"

"the sending of ships fits into a longstanding call by the U.S. SouthCom for additional assets to combat growing antinarcotics and other threats in the hemisphere."
How& #39;s that working out? Cocaine production is as high as ever in Colombia. Maybe just search for it in Wall St?

"In January, another Navy vessel, the USS Detroit, conducted a freedom of navigation operation off the coast of Venezuela in a show of pressure against Maduro."
