To say President Donald Trump isn't messing around in his second term in the White House would be a gross understatement. There are no words to describe his level of fierceness this time around.

According to the Daily Mail, within his first few weeks of being president, Trump managed to wipe out an ISIS mastermind essentially with the stroke of a Sharpie pen. 

The ISIS target who met his fate under Trump was "Ahmed Maeleminine, a senior ISIS recruiter, financer, and external operations leader," according to the outlet.

The terrorist was reportedly a major player, and played a crucial role within the terrorist group in recruiting some of the most dangerous terrorists in the world.

What happened?

Sebastian Gorka, Trump's senior director for counterterrorism, released a statement on the strike that took out the terror mastermind.

"This man has recruited terrorists from around the world, trained them to kill innocents, and deployed them back into the West to execute Jihadi attacks in more than one nation," Gorka said.

In a bombshell revelation, Gorka said that the terrorist was on the U.S. radar for years, but for some reason, the Biden administration refused to take appropriate actions in eliminating him.

As President Trump pointed out in his viral post on the operation, our people had been tracking and surveilling Maeleminine for a very long time but the Biden Administration repeatedly refused to take any action against this Jihadi mastermind," Gorka said.

Trump released a statement on the strike and even published U.S. military video footage of the successful strike that ended the terrorist for good.

"These killers, who we found hiding in caves, threatened the United States and our Allies," he posted on Truth Social. "The strikes destroyed the caves they live in, and killed many terrorists without, in any way, harming civilians."

How did it happen?

National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, along with Gorka, reportedly presented the intel to Trump, and the rest was history.

"We presented a briefing on the severity of the threat Maeleminine posed and the cave complex he was hiding in in Northern Somalia, plus the fact that the Biden White House has refused to do anything about him," the two said.

"The president immediately green lit the operation with a stroke of his iconic black Sharpie felt pen."
