We're seeing a unified effort across President Trump's national security team and the Department of Homeland Security to ensure a safe, free, and prosperous society for Americans. Over 21 million people have crossed our borders illegally under the Biden administration, many unvetted. For example, over 4,000 people from Central Asia, affiliated with an ISIS network, crossed our borders. Hundreds were identified as known terrorists or associated with known terrorists. This information was provided to the Biden administration, yet only a fraction of those arrested were deported or remained in custody; the rest were released into our country. We're working with the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI to keep Americans safe. Our counterterrorism center is focused on vetting to identify and remove those who pose a threat. The president's designation of cartels as foreign terrorist organizations is crucial, especially with their tactics mirroring those of Islamist terrorists. Our mission is clear: to keep the American people safe.

An illegal immigrant, El Mano Negro, admitted to assassinating over 25 people in the county for a cartel that was dismantled. Members of the cartel admitted that moving human beings, drugs, guns, and fentanyl is easier now than ever before in the cartel's history. According to the speaker, law enforcement resources are quickly depleted because of the Biden and Harris administration. The speaker stated that law enforcement sees victim after victim, and these stories are not unfamiliar to law enforcement throughout California.

Under president Trump's administration, this year we've had over four thousand child victims identified and found, a thirty three percent increase from the same time period last year. We've had a seizure of 1,500 kilograms of fentanyl this up to this date, a 25% increase since the same time period last year. 1,500 kilograms of fentanyl is enough to kill a hundred and fifteen million Americans. The FBI has arrested 19,000 people this year alone, that's double than where we were this time last year. We have also arrested 1,600 people who have committed violent acts against children, 270 of them are human traffickers of children. The murder rate is on track to be the lowest in US history, in modern recorded US history. In Northern Virginia, we stood up a task force; in one month, we arrested 545 violent felons. 545 in the state of Virginia, thanks to governor Youngkin's partnership. When you let good cops be cops, and you have the DOJ driving behind this mission, we're gonna clean up Washington DC and keep it safe.

Over 4,000 individuals from Central Asia crossed our borders using an ISIS-affiliated network. Our counterterrorism center identified hundreds as known terrorists or associates and alerted the Biden administration. In 2024, over a hundred were arrested, but only eight were deported or remained in custody, while the rest were released into our country. We must stay focused, collaborating with the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI to ensure American safety. Our counterterrorism center aims to be the primary source for vetting to identify and remove threats. The president's designation of cartels as foreign terrorist organizations aligns with this, especially given their adoption of tactics mirroring Islamist terrorists. Our mission is to protect Americans, and I'm honored to contribute to President Trump's team in achieving this goal.

Fentanyl, heroin, meth, and other lethal drugs are pouring across our open border, causing devastation. Families are torn apart, communities are decimated, and our country is being poisoned. The drug cartels are making unprecedented profits, while Joe Biden's open border policies betray our nation. As president, I will take down the cartels, just as we defeated ISIS. I will restore strong border security and deploy military assets, including the US Navy, to impose a naval embargo on the cartels. Special forces, cyber warfare, and other actions will be used to inflict maximum damage on cartel leadership. I will designate the cartels as foreign terrorist organizations and sever their access to global financial systems. We will forge partnerships with neighboring governments to stop this menace. Drug smugglers and human traffickers will face the death penalty. We must act now to save our country.

I have a message for the criminal cartels in Mexico: your fentanyl smuggling has killed 148,000 young Americans, more than all terrorist organizations combined. When President Trump returns to office, he will designate you as a terrorist organization and take decisive action against you. To the illegal aliens released in our country under Joe Biden's administration, you should start packing your bags. The crime and drug issues in our neighborhoods are unacceptable, and President Trump has demonstrated his commitment to addressing these problems for the American people.

Under my leadership, we achieved the first reduction in overdose deaths in over 30 years. However, under Joe Biden, the progress has been surrendered along with the surrender of our southern border. Fentanyl and other deadly poisons are pouring into our country, causing over 100,000 American deaths annually. I plan to take action on day 1 to end this crisis by imposing a naval embargo on drug cartels, deploying military assets, dismantling trafficking networks, and asking Congress to impose the death penalty on drug dealers and human traffickers. I will also designate Fentanyl as a controlled substance and demand China's cooperation. Additionally, we need to strengthen work, faith, and family pillars to combat addiction, provide treatment without job loss, create job opportunities for former addicts, and expand support for faith-based programs. We must win in 2024 to save our country.

Canada is losing thousands of young people to illicit fentanyl poisoning, which has become a mass murder weapon for Chinese communists and Mexican cartels. The biggest fentanyl lab in history was found in Vancouver, with ties to Chinese organized crime and biker gangs that have been hired to assassinate people in the United States. Canada needs to update its legal structures, as current laws hinder undercover police operations and contribute to low seizure statistics. Most of the drugs are going from Mexico to Canada and then being brought south into the Northwest United States on ships, but there is almost no port enforcement. The US needs Canada to update their legal structures and create a RICO act like in the United States and designate cartels as terrorists. We have to break the bank on fentanyl trafficking for these cartels and bring them down and take them out.

Airbridge is a term that is common in law enforcement for how drug traffickers move their drugs from multiple countries, Venezuela, Honduras, Guatemala, Mexico, to our country. It's called an airbridge. And they pay off government officials. They pay people off. They pay off law enforcement officers in their countries to ignore that and to let them fly undetected. We're looking at all that. We're looking at that in multiple countries. We are not done yet. At president Trump's direction, we will continue to fight until every single cartel boss is behind bars and on American soil and in American prisons for the rest of their lives. Thank you.

Cartels are adapting, particularly by increasing maritime operations. We anticipated this shift and have tripled Coast Guard patrols in response. We will shut them down on the water as well. Our goal is to put them out of business entirely. President Trump is designating them as criminal terrorist organizations, and rightfully so. They've caused more American deaths than all other terrorist groups combined. We will wipe them out by cutting off their funding, which is the source of their power to bribe and operate. Our strategy extends beyond Mexico. We're targeting the Jalisco cartel and other cartels in the 43 countries where they currently operate. We're launching a global attack to dismantle their networks.

Under President Trump's direction to make America safe, the DOJ has faced over 200 civil lawsuits and 50 injunctions, with multiple cases before the Supreme Court. The DEA stated that Trump has "taken the handcuffs off of DEA agents." DOJ agencies have seized over 22 million fentanyl pills and 3,400 kilos of fentanyl, allegedly saving 258 million lives. ATF, along with DOJ agencies, seized 14,500 guns and 651,000 rounds of ammo, a 51% increase from 2024. The death penalty is being pursued in certain cases, including for arsonists, with nine arrests made across seven jurisdictions. An ISIS terrorist was apprehended in New York. An October 7 task force exists. A human trafficking ring linked to the Sinaloa cartel was dismantled, seizing meth, fentanyl, and 20,000 molly pills laced with fentanyl. 29 cartel members were brought back from Mexico, including one involved in the 1985 murder of DEA agent Kiki Camareno. 200 policies have been rescinded, ending DEI and weaponization.

Special forces in Mexico shoot individuals dead at the border. Many parents have lost their children to Fentanyl-laced pharmaceuticals, which should be considered poisoning rather than an overdose. This crisis requires more aggressive measures to address it. Mexico will have a new president in 2024, and I hope to establish a good relationship with them to use our military to secure our own southern border. We need to prioritize protecting our own borders instead of focusing on others. The northern border is also a concern, as a significant amount of fentanyl was seized there last year. We should not only build a wall but also use the military to seal tunnels underneath it. Let's be practical and get the job done.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche welcomed attendees to the Department of Justice, highlighting President Trump's upcoming address. Blanche praised Trump's resilience amidst media attacks and legal challenges, stating he was resolved to fight for the American people. Blanche outlined the DOJ's actions since January 20th, including securing custody of 29 cartel leaders from Mexico, including Rafael Quintero, responsible for the murder of DEA agent Kiki Camarena. MS-13 and other cartels have been designated as foreign terrorist organizations, enabling terrorism charges against members. Over 6,600 criminal cases have been filed against illegal aliens in border districts. Task forces are being established to enforce immigration laws and pursue transnational criminal organizations. The DOJ will seek the death penalty for those who murder law enforcement officers. Investigations are underway regarding anti-Semitism on college campuses, including Columbia University, with a focus on material support for terrorism. Weaponization inquiries are ongoing, but under General Bondi, the weaponization has stopped. The department's focus is now squarely on keeping the American people safe.

An executive order has been issued designating cartels and similar organizations as foreign terrorist organizations. This long-awaited action is significant, despite potential objections from Mexico. The impact of these organizations is severe, with estimates suggesting they are responsible for the deaths of around 300,000 Americans annually, far exceeding previous reports of 100.

Fentanyl, heroin, meth, and other lethal drugs are flooding across the open border, causing immense harm to American lives. Families are torn apart, communities devastated, and our country poisoned from within. The drug cartels are making unprecedented profits, surpassing even major corporations. Joe Biden's open border policies betray our nation, siding with the cartels. As president, I will take down the cartels just as we defeated ISIS. I will restore strong border security, deploy military assets, and impose a naval embargo. Special forces, cyber warfare, and other actions will be used to cripple cartel leadership and operations. Major cartels will be designated as foreign terrorist organizations, cutting off their access to global finances. We will forge partnerships with neighboring governments and expose corruption. Legislation will be passed to ensure death penalties for drug smugglers and human traffickers. The drug kingpins and traffickers will never rest easy again. We must act now to save our country.

Under my leadership, we achieved the first reduction in overdose deaths in over 30 years by addressing the drug and fentanyl crisis. However, Joe Biden's policies have led to a surge in drug overdose deaths and an uncontrolled flow of deadly drugs into our country. I plan to take immediate action to combat this crisis by imposing a naval embargo on drug cartels, deploying military assets, dismantling trafficking networks, and asking Congress to impose the death penalty on drug dealers and human traffickers. Additionally, I will direct federal law enforcement to target gangs and organized street crime involved in drug distribution. We must also strengthen pillars like work, faith, and family to provide hope and support for those struggling with addiction. Through treatment, job opportunities, faith-based programs, and family leave, we will work towards ending the drug addiction crisis in America.

A cartel admitted it is easier to move human beings, drugs, guns, and fentanyl across the border now than in the history of their cartel. This has occurred within the last 3 years. Law enforcement resources are quickly depleted due to the Biden and Harris administration.

Venezuela is turned into a narco terrorist state that continues to work with the FARC, continues to work with ELN from Colombia to send record amounts of cocaine from Venezuela, from Colombia into the Mexican cartels that continue to come into The United States at record amounts. "We have seized more cocaine this year than past years." "The amount of methamphetamine coming into this country continues to be on the uptick, and we still see record amounts of fentanyl coming into our country." "But the Venezuelan corruption, the Venezuelan dictatorship, he is a narco terrorist." "They continue to send this poison to The United States killing hundreds of thousands of Americans, not to mention the TDA members that they send to our country to destroy the beautiful streets of The United States."

As a former federal prosecutor and judge, I want to remind everyone that trafficking fentanyl, human trafficking, theft, rape, and murder are all illegal in the United States. The Department of Homeland Security must detain and remove those who enter the country illegally. We don't need new laws, we need leaders who enforce the existing laws.

My administration surge surge 500 federal agents into the district, including from the FBI, ATF, DEA, Park Police, the US Marshals Service, the Secret Service, and the Department of Homeland Security. You know, a lot of nations, they don't have anything like that. They got some some police, and they're rough police. They don't have a DEA, ATF, FBI, Park Police, US Marshal Service, Secret Service, Department of Homeland Security. They got some police, but they're rough police, and they do their job. They don't have crime. We're not gonna have crime either. They made dozens of arrests, and that's what that's what starts to happen. Again, cashless bail. Watch what we do with that. Today, we're

Another message to the Mexican cartels: you have smuggled enough fentanyl to kill 148,000 young Americans, causing more deaths than all terrorist organizations combined. When President Trump returns to office, he will designate you as a terrorist organization and take decisive action against you. Your time is up.

Our nation is facing a crisis due to drug cartels and crime. The current administration's open border policies have worsened the situation, allowing cartels to thrive. As president, I will take decisive action against these cartels, similar to how we defeated ISIS. We will restore strong border security and deploy military assets, including the Navy, to enforce a naval embargo against drug trafficking. I will designate major cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, cutting off their financial resources and collaborating with neighboring governments to combat their influence. Additionally, I will seek legislation for the death penalty for drug smugglers and human traffickers. The cartels and their allies have caused immense suffering, and we must act swiftly to protect our country and families. Strong leadership is essential to reclaim our nation's safety and respect on the global stage.

Speaker 0: Have you considered talking to the president of Colombia who you called a drop leader? Speaker 1: No. I haven't really thought too much about him. He's been fairly hostile to The United States, and I haven't given him a lot of thought. He's he's gonna have himself some big problems if he doesn't wise up. Speaker 2: Did you say Colombia is producing a lot of drugs. Have cocaine factories that they make cocaine, as you know, and they sell it right into The United States. So he better wise up or he'll be next. He'll be next too. I hope he's listening. Speaker 0: So was this operation a message that you're sending to Mexico, to Claudia Scheinbaum, president there? Speaker 2: Well, it wasn't meant to be. We're very friendly with her. She's a good woman, but the cartels are running Mexico. She's not running Mexico. The cartels are running Mexico. We could be politically correct and be nice and say, oh, yes. Is no. No. She's very, you know, she's very frightened of the cartels that are running Mexico. And I've asked her numerous times, would you like us to take out the cartels? No. No. No, mister president. No. No, no, please. So we have to do something because we lost the real number is 300,000 people, in my opinion. You know, they like to say a 100,000. A 100,000 is a lot of people, but the real number is 300,000 people. And we lost it to drugs, and they come in through the southern border, mostly the southern border. A lot plenty come in through Canada too, by the way, in case you don't know. But but they come in through the southern border, and something's gonna have to be done with Mexico. Cuban government, the Trump administration's next target, mister secretary, very quickly. Speaker 3: Well, the Cuban government is a is a huge problem. Yeah. The the the the Cuban government is a huge problem for Speaker 2: some So is that a yes? Speaker 3: Cuba. But I don't think people fully appreciate. I think they're in a lot of trouble. Yes. I'm not gonna talk talk to you about what our future steps are gonna be and our policies are gonna be right now in this regard, but I don't think it's any mystery that we are not big fans of the Cuban regime, who, by the way, are the ones that were propping up Maduro. His entire, like, internal security force, his internal security opera apparatus is entirely controlled by Cubans. One of the untold stories here is how, in essence, you talk about colonization because I think you said Dulce Rodriguez mentioned that, the ones who have sort of colonized, at least inside the regime, are Cubans. It was Cubans that guarded Maduro. He was not guarded by Venezuelan bodyguards. He had Cuban bodyguards. In terms of their internal intelligence, who spies on who inside to make sure there are no traitors, those are all Cubans. Speaker 0: He felt very strongly. We we needed for nationals. We need Greenland for national security, not for minerals. We had some we have so many sites for minerals and oil and everything. We have more oil than any other country in the world. We need Greenland for national security.

Today, we’re targeting MS-13, a foreign terrorist organization involved in drugs, guns, and human trafficking. We’re conducting a large-scale operation with multiple teams to arrest 13 members, a crippling blow to their network. This is a whole-of-government effort with ICE, DOJ, FBI, DEA, ATF, and the U.S. Marshals Service. Sanctuary jurisdictions hinder our work; a recent example saw an MS-13 member with firearms and narcotics released back onto the streets. Conversely, Montgomery County’s collaboration with ICE led to a 50% decrease in violent crime. We prioritize public safety and national security; MS-13 victimizes more people than other terrorist groups. Our officers' morale is high, and we’re proud of our work, including leading the country in sex offender arrests. Yesterday, we arrested a prolific MS-13 member involved in homicides. We’re making a difference, and we’ll continue to target dangerous criminals.

An executive order has been issued designating cartels and other organizations as foreign terrorist organizations. This decision, long sought after, acknowledges the severe impact these groups have, with estimates suggesting they are responsible for the deaths of around 250,000 to 300,000 Americans annually, far exceeding previous reports of 100. While Mexico may not support this designation, it is deemed necessary to address the crisis.
