Tired of all this #WINNING yet? Hah! Fat chance. – For the fourth time in the last seven trading days, all three major stock market indexes attained record high closes on Tuesday. This was the 10th record-high closing day in November alone, and…wait for it…the 100th record high closing day for the Dow Jones Industrials since Donald John Trump was sworn in as President of the United States.
Great. Now do Antifa – Speaking of President Trump, he told Bill O’Reilly in an interview released on Tuesday that he will soon designate Mexico’s governing party, er, major drug cartels as terrorist organizations, “and start hitting them with drone attacks.” This naturally threw Mexico’s government officials – most of whom are in the cartels’ deep pockets – into a panic, with the Mexican foreign ministry immediately announcing it would seek “high-level meetings” with counterparts in the U.S. State Department to discuss the matter.
Mexico’s foreign minister said his country would not allow any “violation of national sovereignty”, which is laughable considering that his country allows its citizens and the drug cartels to violate U.S. national sovereignty thousands of times every day.
President Trump is obviously still angry over the brutal mass killings of U.S. ex-patriot Mormon women and children by cartels early in November. Immediately following this latest act of depravity and the utter failure of Mexico’s government to address it in any effective manner, the President promised to “go to war” with the cartels, and offered Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador the support of the U.S. military in fighting them. Naturally, the corrupt Mexican government immediately dismissed the idea.
At some point, the United States is going to have to face the reality that Mexico is a failed state, and that its presence on the southern border poses too much of a danger to the lives and well-being of U.S. citizens to continue to ignore. Mexican cartels murder U.S. citizens every day, and their boldness in violating our borders and murdering, kidnapping and torturing Americans only grows over time.
By designating the cartels as terrorist organizations, President Trump will make it illegal for anyone to knowingly offer the cartels any form of support, which will create massive problems for open-borders politicians of both parties. Financial institutions who knowingly possess funds connected to any designated terrorist organization must alert the U.S. Treasury and impound the funds.
You will know which U.S. politicians are in the pockets of the cartels by observing which ones screech the loudest in opposition to having them designated as terrorists. This is not complicated. There is no valid, honest reason for any well-meaning person to oppose this move.
Once the President has completed this designation process with the cartels, he should immediately move to impose the same designation on domestic terrorist groups like Antifa. Doing this would of course generate massive outrage from the Democrat Party – which, after all, created Antifa – and the corrupt news media, but so what? The President is subjected to that every day regardless of what he does.
Antifa has been terrorizing U.S. citizens on the streets of large, Democrat-controlled cities since the day after the 2016 presidential election. The corrupt media goes to great pains to refuse to air videos of the riots the group creates on a regular basis, but we’ve all seen them anyway thanks to social media.
It is long past time for the federal government to move effectively to cripple this obvious domestic terrorist organization by de-funding it and penalizing any U.S. citizen who offers it support. As with the cartels, there is no valid, honest reason for anyone to oppose such a move.
Democrat politicians like to talk about Americans having a right to feel “safe” in their daily lives. The best first step to achieving that would be to end the reign of terror by the group the Democrat Party created in November 2016 and still supports today.
That is all.
I am all for categorizing cartels as terrorists. Mexico needs to decide which side it is on and quit coddling them.
About time.
The drug cartels run Mexico.
Don't fool yourself into thinking that won't ever happen again.
Labeling Conservative groups as terrorist organizations lays the groundwork for that day.
Then do my in-laws.
Being labelled a terrorist is the new tattoo.
Expatriate, not “ex-patriot”.
Antifa already has within the DOD!
What about George Soros? If the president wants to make a real difference with Antifa and the corrupt American election system (and probably drug running), target number one is George Soros. I have never heard the name uttered from the president’s lips.
Cartels then Antifa...great, but then I start to worry. What if the next ”Obama-like” president declares the Tea Party a terrorist organization?
If you are an NRA member, you are already considered a terrorist. At least in San Francisco, that is.
Ex-patriots are the conservatives who allow themselves to be seduced by inside-the-beltway elitists.
Agreed. Someone needs to after that SOB.
I’ll believe it when he actually does it. I’m not holding my breath
They’ll just change their name, like ACORN did.
Good Move indeed!! The CIA has been loosely involved with the Cartels for years. this will curtail their operations. The Gun Walking operations helped arm the Cartels, so they could kill the Mormon family members. And the Drug trade is important to the Cartels and the CIA who use drugs to make money and to finance operations to arm insurgents in third world countries. On another note, killing ISIS also is hindering the CIA operations. Trump is stopping the CIA doing this. In 2015-2016, there were at least 4 instances where US, Iraqi or Kurd fighters captured CIA operatives with ISIS. How confusing this must be for the US and it’s allies to capture CIA people with ISIS!! Who is working against who here? And you won’t find these reports in the US press, they were in European and MidEast news services, like Al Jazeera, Jerusalem Post, BBC, etc. So, with this action of declaring the Cartels terrorist organizations, Trump may have made the CIA even more of an enemy of the State
Well that is coming to an end. You don’t get to shoot American women and children and get away with it. Not with Trump in office.
They should quietly investigate Soros, to see where all the tentacles of his organization and funding lead, and to better understand who is behind him. Because I assume there are other “shadowy-er” folks behind him.
Certain politicians are in the cartel’s pockets, which is bad, but he owns the DNC outright. The politicians who aren’t in his pockets aspire to be in his pockets. Political campaigns have become competitions to try and attract his attention and blessing.
And its starting to look like he owns the top floors of at least some of the alphabet agencies. They have to be cleared out or it doesn’t really matter who occupies the White House.
It gets difficult to prove illegality with some of these relationships, these people are all lawyers, lots of them are lawmakers, and law enforcers, and intel people, and know very well how to use the law to camouflage themselves.
The USA should annex Mexico as a protectorate and clean house of the government, corrupt police and military and of course, the cartels.
Allow US corporations who want cheap labor to get it by funding wholesale reconstruction of the country. If the build a plant, they have to build a city to house the workers and support the services of that city.
Put the whole thing on a 40 or 50 year plan for Mexico to regain it’s independence, once it demonstrates the ability to maintain itself.
