The Trump Murders - From Minnesota to the Caribbean: Allegations of Extrajudicial Killings - FIVE MINUTE NEWS
Under the authority of the Trump regime, U.S. forces carried out a series of lethal operations that critics say crossed a dangerous legal and moral line. This video breaks down allegations of extrajudicial killings linked to Trump-era policies — from U.S. airstrikes on small boats in the Caribbean, to opaque bombing campaigns in Nigeria and Venezuela, to fatal encounters between federal agents and civilians in Minnesota.
At the center of the controversy is an expansive claim of presidential authority: that the president can unilaterally order killings without charges, trials, or transparent oversight. Families of victims, including the relatives of two Trinidadian fishermen killed in a U.S. strike, are now suing the U.S. government — arguing these deaths were unlawful and violated both U.S. and international law. - 01/27/2026.
