President Donald J. Trump Declares War on Cartels December 22, 2023
As Joe Biden prepares to make his first-ever trip to the
southern border that he deliberately erased, President Trump announced that
when he is president again, it will be the official policy of the United States
to take down the drug cartels just as we took down ISIS.
“The drug cartels are waging war on America—and it's now time for America to wage war on the cartels,” President Trump said. “The drug cartels and their allies in the Biden administration have the blood of countless millions on their hands. Millions and millions of families and people are being destroyed. When I am back in the White House, the drug kingpins and vicious traffickers will never sleep soundly again.”
President Donald J. Trump’s Plan to Destroy
the Drug Cartels
“The drug cartels are waging war on America—and it’s now time for America to wage war on the cartels.” – Donald J. Trump
President Trump laid out an aggressive plan to dismantle the criminal trafficking networks that are destroying lives and communities on both sides of the border.
TRUMP ACTION PLAN TO DESTROY THE DRUG CARTELS:
Restore all Trump border policies and fully secure border
Deploy all necessary military assets, including the U.S. Navy, to impose a full naval embargo on the cartels, to ensure they cannot use our region’s waters to traffic illicit drugs to the U.S.
Order the Department of Defense to make appropriate use of special forces, cyber warfare, and other covert and overt actions to inflict maximum damage on cartel leadership, infrastructure, and operations
Designate the major drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations
Cut off the cartels’ access to the global financial system
Get full cooperation of neighboring governments to dismantle the cartels, or else fully expose the bribes and corruption that protect these criminal networks
Ask Congress to ensure drug smugglers and traffickers can receive the Death Penalty
BIDEN’S DEADLY DESTRUCTION OF OUR BORDER: Joe Biden has spent the last two years dismantling the southern border. Biden’s Open Borders policies are killing innocent Americans, ravaging American communities, enriching the cartels, and destabilizing large parts of Mexico and Latin America.
Since Joe Biden took office, an estimated 200,000+ Americans have died from drug overdoses.
Hundreds of thousands of pounds of ultra-lethal fentanyl, heroin, meth, cocaine, and other illicit narcotics are pouring across our wide-open border and into American communities. Federal officials estimate that they only seize up to 10% of these drugs. Enough fentanyl was seized at the border last year to kill every single American.
Biden inherited the strongest border in U.S. history, and turned it into the greatest border disaster in the history of the world.
Biden stopped wall construction, gutted Remain in Mexico, ripped up asylum cooperation agreements, imposed catch-and-release across the entire southern border, slandered and attacked border agents, announced the cancelation of Title 42, and effectively abolished interior enforcement.
Drug cartels and human smugglers have seen their revenue skyrocket by an estimated 2,500%, netting $13 billion this year. Trafficking illegal alien migrants is now a major source of revenue for the drug cartels.
Fueled
in major part by Biden’s border disaster, the number of Americans killed due to
fentanyl increased by 94% since 2019, and fentanyl poisoning has become
the leading cause of death for Americans between the ages of 18 and 45.
BIDEN’S PRO-CARTEL BORDER
POLICIES ARE ALSO DEVESTATING MEXICO:
Reports of torture in Mexico have doubled, and reports of violence by criminal groups against authorities or large crowds rose 756% in the first half of 2022 compared to the previous year.
In Mexico, over 100,000 civilians are missing or murdered at the
hands of the cartels, with an average of 25 Mexican citizens disappearing
every day.
Cartels have destabilized Mexico by bribing officials at all levels of
government, assassinating journalists and public servants, and mass murdering political candidates.
Biden’s actions are pushing vulnerable migrant women and
children into the arms of the most vicious, violent, and predatory criminal
networks on earth.
Arrests for human smuggling increased by 82% since 2014, and an estimated 60%
of unaccompanied Latin American children who attempt to cross the border
are captured by cartels and abused in child
pornography or drug trafficking.
BOTTOM LINE: Biden has
destroyed the border—President Trump will destroy the cartels.
TRANSCRIPT
Fentanyl,
heroin, meth, and other lethal drugs are pouring across our wide-open border,
stealing hundreds of thousands of beautiful American lives — and it’s happening
like never before in our history. Children are being left without parents.
Families are being ripped apart. Communities are being decimated. Our neighbors
and fellow citizens are having their entire worlds destroyed — destroyed like
nobody thought possible. Our country is being POISONED from within by the drugs
and by all of the other crime that’s taking place.
The
drug cartels are waging war on America—and it’s now time for America to wage
war on the cartels. In this war, Joe Biden has sided AGAINST the United States,
and WITH the cartels. They are making more money than they’ve ever made before,
times ten. There’s never been anything like it. They’re major, major companies
— they’re bigger than even some of our biggest companies. Biden’s Open Border
policies are a deadly betrayal of our nation.
- When I am President, it will be the policy of the
United States to take down the cartels just as we took down ISIS and the
ISIS caliphate — and just as, unlike the situation we are in today, we had
a very very strong border. The strongest border in fact in the history of
our country. And drugs were at a low of 45 years. There’s been nothing
like what we did just two years ago. We will show NO MERCY to the cartels. Every day, drug traffickers are using the waters of our
region to ship their lethal poisons to America killing so many of our
people and ruining families. In addition to restoring strong border
security, I will deploy all necessary military assets, including the U.S.
Navy, to impose the full naval embargo on the cartels. I did that before
and it worked — what we did was incredible. We will guarantee that the
waters of the western hemisphere are not used to traffic illicit drugs to
our country.
- Furthermore, I will order the Department of Defense to
make appropriate use of special forces, cyber warfare, and other overt and
covert actions to inflict maximum damage on cartel leadership,
infrastructure, and operations.
- I will designate the major cartels as Foreign Terrorist
Organizations. We will sever their access to global financial systems.
- I will also work to forge an unprecedented partnership
with neighboring governments in our region. Just like I did in Mexico. And
remember, in Mexico alone, an estimated 100,000 civilians have been
tragically murdered or gone missing at the hands of these cartels. The
Mexican government — run by a very fine man, the President — is really
working hard, but it’s not working out. These cartels are vicious, and
they’re violent, and they have Mexico, for now, stymied. Well, we have to
help Mexico and we have to stymied the cartels. Either we will get the
full cooperation of other governments to stop this menace—or we will
expose every bribe, every kickback, every payoff, and every bit of
corruption that is allowing the cartels to preserve their brutal reign. And
it is indeed brutal.
- Finally, as I
have said before, I will ask Congress to pass legislation ensuring that
drug smugglers and human traffickers receive the Death Penalty.
- The drug cartels and their allies in the Biden administration have the blood of countless millions on their hands. Millions and millions of families and people are being destroyed. When I am back in the White House, the drug kingpins and vicious traffickers will never sleep soundly again. We did it once, and we did it better than anybody else. There’s never been a better border than we had just two years ago. It was strong, it was powerful, and it was respected all over the world. And now we’re laughed at all over the world. And we’re not going to let that happen much longer. We have to take over, we have to be tough, we have to be smart, we have to be fair. But if we don’t do something immediately, our country is gone.
Norb Leahy, Dunwoody GA Tea Party Leader
