Crumb The 1st a nation can declare sanctions against the natural resources of another country and then seize those resources while in transport on a ship and it's all perfectly legal. So if another country declares that against the US then there should be no outcry when they seize one of our ships.
Oh that's right it's about terrorism and moving drugs according to Crumb The 1st. So then the terrorism the US has supported in Central America in Nicaragua, El Salvador, etc. and the CIA running drugs and Crumb the 1st pardoning the Honduran drug kingpin so he can go back to moving more drugs qualifies under that criteria also.
So maybe a country that has had drugs come into their country from Honduras should sanction US oil and grab one of our tankers. Perfectly justified, reasonable and legal according to the foreign policy of Crumb the 1st and the fascists.
No whining now you fascists. Everybody is just playing by your same justifications.

This fuckstick is leading us into worldwide conflagration, only this time, it won't be the United States teaming up with Democratic allies to defeat European fascism, it will be democratic countries teaming up to defeat American fascism.
Oh, and those carrier battlegroups belong to the American people...NOT Donnie Dipshit.

if the american people want their carriers back we must take them at the ballot box or on the streets.
to abandon allies and join the russians was a choice clearly marked on the 2024 ballot. it is a great disappointment that a nation for which i have given so much has chosen so unwisely.
