Today the United States is launching enhanced counter narcotics operations in the western hemisphere to protect the American people from the deadly scourge of illegal narcotics,” Trump said. “We are deploying additional Navy destroyers, combat ships, aircraft and helicopters, Coast Guard cutters and Air Force surveillance aircraft, doubling the capabilities in the region.”
After Trump’s remarks, Milley said, “There’s thousands of sailors, coast guardsmen, soldiers, airman, Marines, involved in this operation. We came across some intelligence some time ago that the drug cartels as a result of covid-19 were going to try to take advantage of the situation and try to infiltrate additional drugs into our country.”
“We are at war with terrorists and we are at war with the drug cartels as well,” Milley continued. “This is the United States Military. You will not penetrate this country. You will not get past jump street. You’re not going to come in here and kill additional Americans. And we will marshal whatever assets are required to prevent your entry into this country to kill Americans.”

What are the ROEs?
Special Ops south of the border mayhap? I’m all giddy. I hope this turns into something
Bookarked to follow.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
What the heck?
Good. Wanna stop this crap? Kill all terrorist drug cartels. No prisoners.
Once the perps are ID’d bring in the A10s and light them up.

You’re more than welcome, Beaubo is a huge fount of knowledge about the wall, everything about it.
If the U.S. brought all it’s troops in the middle east and EU home (where they belong) and dispersed throughout the hemisphere, the drug cartels would handled very quickly... IMHO...
Wow, winning, winning, winning! I just love this president. And I love, especially, our military academies: West Point, The U.S. Naval Academy, and the Air Force Academy. They’re warrior scholars who could filet you with their pinky. All they do is study war and battle back to antiquity, how they were won and how they were lost.
They know every trick in the book, and are the best there is at dreaming up new ones. Like Bobby Fisher. You teach him every trick in the book and something clicks, genius that he is, and he begins dreaming up new tricks. He surpasses his masters and walks all over his perplexed opponents. You better know your chit if you’re going to go up against them, and be disciplined as hell. Which these two new groups of intellectual slobs ain’t.
I am going to fully enjoy what is about to happen.
No doubt the Commiecrats will stick up for the drug cartels, and try to keep Trump from doing this. They stuck up for China a few days ago, and passed a resolution to protect Iran from mean old Trump a while back. I wouldn’t be surprised.
What’s going on here? We’ve had this crap going on for YEARS and now they’re militarizing the border? The Army used to patrol the border back in the day and I approve. What’s going on?
Democrats and media won’t be happy about this.
Well, look on the bright side: Were not letting a crisis go to waste now by doing something that shoulda been done a long time ago.
I was wondering the same.
I’d sure like to hear more about the rescue situation. I think that was POTUS’ way of gradually introducing the topic. I think we’re going to hear more info trickle out over time.
HSBC had to pay a fine of approximately 1 month’s profits for laundering drug money.
IIRC, Loretta Lynch brokered the deal, and I think Comey might’ve been a lawyer for HSBC at the time.
Try looking it up...?
Well, yes.
At least it wasn’t General Consternation!
Very smart move to go on this offensive and will keep the sailors out of COVID-19 reach while out at sea too.
Damn! About time!
