BROKEN PROMISE

‘No New Wars’: Trump Boasts He Bombed Somalia

Donald Trump announced bombings in Somalia in an X message on Saturday.

Newly elected President Donald Trump, who made a campaign promise of not starting any "new wars," seemingly went back on his word when he announced on X on Saturday that he had ordered bombings in Somalia. “This morning I ordered precision Military air strikes on the Senior ISIS Attack Planner and other terrorists he recruited and led in Somalia,” Trump shared on the platform. “These killers, who we found hiding in caves, threatened the United States and our Allies. The strikes destroyed the caves they live in, and killed many terrorists without, in any way, harming civilians,” he continued. His announcement wasn’t complete without throwing in a jab at Joe Biden, who Trump says “wouldn’t act quickly enough to get the job done.” “The message to ISIS and all others who would attack Americans is that ‘WE WILL FIND YOU, AND WE WILL KILL YOU!’” Trump wrote at the end of his message. Underneath his post, Trump devotees applauded the strikes.
