Sheinbaum Responds To Trump Policy

Well, here we are, folks. While Americans brace themselves against the tidal wave of fentanyl poisoning our streets and criminal cartels running smuggling operations like Fortune 500 companies, Mexico’s leftist leadership is drawing a big red line in the sand—against Trump’s plans to stop it.

President-elect Donald Trump has made it crystal clear: the Mexican drug cartels are not just criminal enterprises—they’re terrorist organizations. And if they want to act like terrorists, they’ll be treated like terrorists. Trump isn’t mincing words here. “All foreign gang members will be expelled and I will immediately designate the [drug] cartels as foreign terrorist organizations,” he said. And honestly, it’s about time someone did.

Mike Waltz, a Green Beret turned congressman, knows exactly how this ends if we don’t act. Waltz co-sponsored legislation calling for an Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) against the cartels. Why? Because these groups aren’t just pushing drugs—they’re destabilizing entire regions, killing thousands with poison, and building alliances with America’s greatest enemies.

Let’s not dance around the facts: these cartels are terrorist organizations in every sense of the term. They use fear, brutality, and violence to maintain control. They have no regard for human life, they undermine legitimate governments, and they’re raking in billions of dollars every month from fentanyl, weapons, and human trafficking.

And let’s not forget Pete Hegseth, Trump’s pick for Secretary of Defense, who has the right idea. He’s said military precision strikes aren’t just an option—they might be necessary. You can almost hear the panic in Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum’s voice when she assures her citizens, “There won’t be an invasion. It’s not going to happen.” Well, Claudia, if your government had the strength or the will to root out the cartel infestation in your own country, we wouldn’t be having this conversation in the first place.

Tom Homan, Trump’s incoming border czar, isn’t sugarcoating it either. He’s made it clear: “Trump will use the full might of the United States Special Operations to take ‘em out.” Now, some people might clutch their pearls at that kind of language, but let’s face it—cartel leaders aren’t going to be persuaded by strongly worded letters and diplomatic niceties.

Mike Waltz brought up an excellent point when he compared this situation to the Green Berets’ work dismantling Colombia’s Medellín cartel and the FARC. With just a few dozen highly trained soldiers working strategically, they turned the tide in a nation that was on the brink of collapse. The blueprint already exists—we know how to do this.

But here’s the real kicker: these cartels aren’t just operating in Mexico anymore. They’ve spread their operations deep into American cities, aligning themselves with foreign adversaries. The Chinese Communist Party is funneling precursors for fentanyl straight into cartel hands. Iranian operatives and Hezbollah proxies are using cartel smuggling routes to infiltrate the United States. ISIS is lurking in the shadows, waiting to exploit the chaos.

This isn’t just a border crisis. This isn’t even just a drug crisis. This is a national security crisis.

Yet Mexico’s president is standing there, arms crossed, saying, “Nope, not happening.”
