🕘🇺🇸SOTU COUNTDOWN: This is what America FIRST leadership looks like.

@POTUS designated violent cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations, enabling our National Counterterrorism Center to deploy two decades of counterterrorism expertise against narco-terrorists.

We are dismantling their networks and protecting American lives.

TRANSCRIPT BEGINS~~

Tulsi Gabbard:

President Trump has already taken historic action,

immediately, to secure our borders in record time

and designated several cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations,

a move that has empowered our National Counterterrorism Center

here at ODNI to deploy over two decades of counter-terrorism

expertise towards detecting and deterring cartels and

gangs like never before.

In just one year, this designation by President Trump prevented

more than 10,000 individuals with direct ties to

narcoterrorism from accessing our country.

We work very closely with our partners at the federal, state and

local level. We assisted them in the aprehensions of several cartel

terrorists, including a Sinoaloa Cartel boss known as 'El Pato' who

allegedly led a vast network of drug trafficking, extortion,

kidnapping and murder.

Another example is a CJNG (Jalisco New Generation Cartel)

baby-trafficker called, 'La Diabla' who 

preyed on vulnerable pregnant women in Mexico, lured them to 

remote areas, cut out their babies, harvested their organs

and sold these newborn babies.

These are just a few examples of the progress that's been made 

toward ending the gang and cartel violence that's plagued the

American people, and put our lives at risk for far too long.

This is good work. I worry that the US media — and therefore the US public — won’t really give Trump any credit for doing any of this stuff. It will just seem like a big nothing. And it isn’t.

Weird how a patriotic pro-America Hindi woman is HATED by the KKK Treason Party - which is supposed to be pro-woman and pro-immigrant.

DemoKKKraps are nothing but lying piles of feces.

Great to see another smooth operation by our fabulous military in action. Let’s hope and pray the trend continues.
