Admiral Alvin Holsey retired 2 years short of completing his tour. Adm Holsey was head of US Southern Command which is responsible for military operations in the Caribbean and Latin America.

 

Lately, POTUS OJ has been ordering strikes on boats in international waters accusing them of transporting narcotics mainly fentanyl. 

 

Fentanyl is a huge concern to white folks as it has been killing them. Unlike cocaine and methamphetamines, it doesn't take much fentanyl to kill the user.

 

Some folks also believe the US is trying to force regime change in Venezuela. President Nicholas Maduro has been running the country since 2013.

 

According to the constitution, the US cannot declare war without Congressional approval. However, it's not uncommon for a POTUS to push the limits.

 

POTUS Obama was responsible for toppling Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi back in 2011. Covert operations led to Gaddafi's assassination.

 

Surely, POTUS OJ is carrying out an agenda in Venezuela. Narcotics is a smoke screen. Mexico is responsible for the fentanyl coming into the US.

 

Admiral Holsey's moral compass wasn't feeling it. He did the admirable thing and bounced before he was asked to do something unethical and just plain wrong. Kudos to him.
