President Trump just made the boldest move to protect America from the drug cartels poisoning our children. He secretly authorized military force against these terrorist organizations that have been flooding our country with deadly fentanyl. This is exactly the kind of strong leadership America voted for.
These cartels are not just criminals anymore. They are armed terrorist groups that control territory and wage war against innocent people. They have killed more Americans than any foreign army ever has with their poison drugs crossing our southern border every single day.
Trump designated groups like the Sinaloa Cartel, Tren de Aragua, and MS-13 as foreign terrorist organizations back in February. Now our military can finally treat them like the enemies they are. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said it perfectly when he called this a national security issue, not just a law enforcement problem.
The Pentagon is now preparing military options to destroy these cartels once and for all. Special forces missions and intelligence operations are being planned with our allies. Every major department from Defense to Homeland Security is working together to wipe out these drug dealers who have declared war on America.
Of course Mexico is already whining about it. Their weak president says there will be no invasion of Mexico, but nobody asked for her permission to protect American families. Mexico has failed to stop these cartels for decades, so now America will do what needs to be done.
Every patriotic American should support this mission completely. These drug cartels have killed our children, destroyed our communities, and made billions while American families suffer. They chose to be enemies of America, and now they will face the consequences.
This is about saving American lives from the fentanyl crisis that has devastated our country. More than 100,000 Americans die from overdoses every year because of these terrorist drug dealers. Our military exists to protect America from foreign enemies, and that is exactly what these cartels are.
President Trump promised to wage war on the cartels, and he is delivering on that promise right now. While politicians talk, Trump takes action to defend America. This is what real leadership looks like when our nation is under attack.
