Hutchinson: We Can’t Fix Border Without Pressuring Mexico to Do More Against Cartels
Breitbart ^ | 12/31/2022 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 12/31/2022 5:07:58 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of Newsmax TV’s “Spicer & Co.,” Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R) argued that we can’t be successful in controlling drug smuggling or the flow migrants at the border “without taking on the cartel in a greater sense, with the cooperation of Mexico, we have to use tools that are at our hands in order to pressure Mexico to do more. That is the biggest challenge that we face.”

Like anything else, people need to want to actually fix the problem. This is more globalist BS. We can shut down the border, and should.

The cartels are the Mexican government.

Much of Mexico is controlled by cartels. The Federal Government does not control the entire country.

Or you could send SpecOps into cartel areas and take a few prisoners and make a deal. Whichever one flips and gives up their higher ups doesn’t get their families slaughtered.

Sure we can. Park the army, air force and marines on the border and have the navy do contant patrols on any navigable and even partially navigable waters involved with standing orders to eliminate any and all threats of hostile forces crossing into this country. Pretty f-ing simple. This government has no balls and is only interested in destroying these United States Of America as we used to know it instead of “say hello to my little friend”...as it should be.

All the US has to do is tell Mexico that they consider cartel activity to be a state assisted act of war against the US and refusal to stop them will be considered an act of war, to which the US will take the intiative to clean it up for them.

That’s what should happen in a US where politicians were not being bribed by the cartels themselves to not enact laws.

"Pressuring"?

Really? Sounds like a pretty weak hand for "pressuring".

Such deceitful nonsense from Mister Hutchinson, uber RINO, he.

First, patch and seal and patrol the border (s). Air tight!

Then, and only then, our neighbors to the south MIGHT be open to discussions. And, one should not hold one's breath on that possibility.

Congress needs to declare WAR on the Mexican Cartels.

The cartels own the Mexican government just like the Deep State owns ours.

The CCP is mixed in all of that, deeply.

It’s a hot mess.

Seriously?

The only way the cartels go down is if we take the lead and start killing folks.

And the Deep State / Democrats are in bed with the CCP so why wouldn’t they be in bed with the cartels too?

Oh yeah. The CCP owns more of congress than the drug cartels. Eric the spy banger is just the tip of the iceberg.

Maybe we need to pressure the cartels partner, Biden and his Regime associates. They are together in a vast children and other illegal alien trafficking program.
