M.D. Kittle writes for the Federalist about the Trump administration’s approach to the southern border.
Cleaning up the mess that the Biden administration left at America’s borders isn’t merely going to take changes in policy. It’s going to require a commitment to war. And a multi-front war at that.
President Joe Biden and the leftist machine over the past four years were complicit in the outright invasion of the United States, planting combatants bent on killing Americans and destroying the country by any means necessary.
Officials are warning of roadside explosives found on roadways around Tamaulipas, Mexico, just across the border from Brownsville, Texas. The bombs reportedly are the work of drug cartels, according to multiple media outlets.
One flyer in Spanish includes photos of explosives and urges travelers between the U.S. and Mexico border, “Don’t touch, don’t move, don’t manipulate,” according to KABB Fox in San Antonio.
Manuel Chacon, a spokesman for the city of Brownsville, did not return The Federalist’s requests for comment. An official from U.S. Customs and Border Protection referred questions to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, which did not return a request for comment.
As the cartels step up their bloody battles against each other, there is growing concern the latest incidents of improvised explosive devices found on roadways leading into the United States may be retaliation for Trump’s war on the cartels.
“This a brazen attack on our country, and drives home the fact that these cartels are clearly terrorist organizations and that we should treat them as such,” Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, said in a statement Monday to The Federalist. “President Trump was right to designate them as FTOs [Foreign Terrorist Organizations] — a policy I started pushing for years ago as a House freshman. Now Congress needs to back him up, codify the policy, and ensure that future administrations can’t undo it.”
