Setting Up for Watergate 2.0 – And It Starts With Dead Narco-Smugglers Floating in the Caribbean

In this fiery December 3, 2025 episode of BKP Politics on Voice of Rural America, host BKP (a passionate pro-Trump, anti-establishment commentator) goes all-in on what he believes is a coordinated media and Deep State takedown of the new Trump administration, centered around a controversial U.S. military strike on drug-smuggling boats at sea.
Core story being discussed:
After President Trump “closed the border,” cartels reportedly shifted massive drug trafficking to maritime routes (Pacific, Atlantic, Caribbean) using fast boats and semi-submersible vessels, some dragging drugs underwater.
Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth allegedly authorized naval forces to interdict and destroy these vessels.
At least one strike involved a “double-tap” – after the initial attack, a follow-up strike allegedly killed survivors clinging to wreckage who were trying to surrender. This is the explosive detail driving the controversy.
The media firestorm (as presented by BKP):
Every major outlet — Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, Washington Post, Daily Telegraph (UK), Newsmax, OANN, etc. — is suddenly running the exact same narrative framing the strike (especially the “double-tap”) as a potential war crime.
Retired Admiral Frank Bradley (referred to as the main figure under scrutiny) and Pete Hegseth are being portrayed as either lying about not seeing survivors or directly responsible.
Judge Andrew Napolitano (on Fox) called it “an act of war crime.”
Bipartisan lawmakers have already launched a second-strike investigation.
Headlines and chyrons are nearly identical across networks, which BKP sees as proof of centralized coordination.
BKP’s main arguments / warnings:
President Trump missed a golden opportunity to get ahead of the story by addressing the nation directly (prime-time speech) explaining that drug routes moved to the sea and that America will no longer tolerate it — without revealing operational details.
The rules of engagement apparently allow destruction of the vessel and cargo, but finishing off surrendering survivors crosses into murder/war-crime territory — and the media is seizing on that gray area.
This is “SignalGate 2.0” – a manufactured scandal designed to create Trump-administration casualties before the 2026 midterms, just like RussiaGate.
Even Fox News is “in on it,” carrying water for the intelligence community and laying groundwork to damage the administration. BKP repeatedly warns that Trump’s team keeps cozying up to Fox only to get stabbed in the back.
If Democrats take the House in 2026, this boat-strike incident will be treated like Watergate on steroids.
Tone & closing: BKP is furious but squarely on Trump’s and Hegseth’s side. He believes the strikes themselves were justified to stop the flood of drugs, but the optics and media coordination are a deliberate trap. He ends by teasing the next segment on the special election/runoff in “Tennessee 7” (likely a congressional district) and warning viewers that establishment Republicans there are also part of the problem.
In short: a classic BKP rant framing the narco-boat strikes and the ensuing media blitz as the opening salvo in a Deep State war to cripple the Trump administration before it even fully begins.
