Vice President JD Vance is facing heavy criticism after blunt remarks he made online about using the U.S. military against drug cartels.
It started when Vance posted that “killing cartel members who poison our fellow citizens is the highest and best use of our military.” Political commentator Brian Krassenstein quickly responded, pointing out that targeting foreign civilians without due process could legally be considered a war crime.
Instead of backing down, Vance doubled down. His sharp reply: “I don’t give a s*** what you call it.”
The exchange immediately went viral, fueling debates across social media and news outlets. Supporters applauded Vance for taking a no-nonsense stance on cartels, but critics accused him of disregarding international law and escalating reckless rhetoric.
As Vice President, Vance’s words carry more weight than when he was in the Senate. His remarks come just days after the administration authorized a controversial strike on a suspected drug operation in Venezuela, which he defended as “the highest and best use of our military.”
While his base sees toughness, opponents warn this approach risks destabilizing international relations and dragging the U.S. into unlawful conflict. One thing is clear: Vance isn’t backing off, no matter the fallout.
