America just got a real warrior back in the fight against drug cartels. Derek Maltz returned as Acting Administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration after serving 28 years as a special agent. This is exactly the kind of tough leadership we need to protect our borders and communities.
Maltz knows how dangerous these cartels really are. He spent nearly a decade running the DEA’s Special Operations Division and led the largest drug task force in America. When he talks about making terrorists feel pain and suffering, he speaks from real experience fighting these criminals.
The drug crisis is destroying American families every single day. Fentanyl from Mexico is killing our children and flooding our streets. We need someone who understands that these cartel leaders are nothing less than terrorists attacking our nation.
During his career, Maltz helped capture El Chapo Guzman and other major cartel bosses. He grew the Special Operations Division from 9 agencies to 30 agencies working together. That’s the kind of results-driven leadership that gets things done.
President Trump made the right choice bringing Maltz back to lead this critical fight. Unlike the weak policies of the past, Trump understands we need tough action against cartels. These criminals only understand strength and consequences for their actions.
Maltz promises to lead with integrity and grit against the networks flooding America with deadly drugs. He knows that being nice to terrorists doesn’t work. The only language they understand is overwhelming force and justice.
The cartels have turned parts of Mexico into war zones and brought that violence to American cities. They profit billions while American mothers bury their children who died from poisoned drugs. This is a national emergency that demands decisive action.
It’s time to stop treating drug cartels like regular criminals and start treating them like the terrorists they are. With leaders like Maltz back in charge, America can finally fight back and protect our families from these deadly threats.
