Trump authorized a covert SEAL Team 6 operation in 2019 to plant a listening device in North Korea, but it failed when they killed civilians on a fishing boat and retreated without completing the mission.

This story is WILD. Trump sent Seal Team 6 into North Korea to plant a listening device. The operation went sideways within minutes, when a fishing boat was unexpectedly at the landing site. Seal Team 6 killed everyone on board, sunk the bodies, and fled. Congress was never told.

A lot of people are getting lost in the details of the SEAL raid into North Korea story, but the central fact is being ignored, which is that this is a monumentally bad leak carried out with deeply destructive intent. Everyone understands there are special operations around the

So today we learned Trump authorized a super risky op to plant a listening device in North Korea. It failed badly. We killed a bunch of innocent North Korean fisherman. And probably not coincidently, diplomacy then went off the rails. And he hid it all from Congress. WTF.

BREAKING: Trump claims he knows nothing about the leaked SEAL Team 6 mission in North Korea that left innocent fishermen dead in 2019. This wasn’t a rogue op. A mission like this needs presidential approval. He’s either lying or has dementia.

Those of you who have followed for awhile will remember that I was *very* concerned that we were going to go to war with North Korea during Trump’s first term. This is part of why. There were multiple provocations that the public didn’t know about in that time period. 1/2

This is insane. Trump secretly deployed SEAL Team 6 into North Korea to plant a listening device but the mission collapsed when a fishing boat approached. SEAL Team 6 killed every civilian, sank the bodies by piercing their lungs, and escaped. Congress wasn’t told about it.
