Senator Eric Schmitt from Missouri is sounding the alarm about a crisis that is destroying American families every single day. The Republican lawmaker warns that drug cartels are literally killing millions of our fellow Americans through deadly fentanyl and other poison drugs flooding across our southern border. This is not just a border problem anymore – it is a full-scale attack on America itself.
The numbers are absolutely staggering and heartbreaking. Over 100,000 Americans die from drug overdoses every year, with most of those deaths caused by fentanyl made by Mexican cartels. That means more Americans are dying from cartel drugs than died in the entire Vietnam War – and it happens every single year. These are our sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, and neighbors being murdered by foreign criminals.
For years, the Biden administration ignored this crisis while cartels grew richer and more powerful. They treated our border like a suggestion instead of a national security priority. Meanwhile, these drug dealers became so wealthy and dangerous that they now control large parts of Mexico and operate like terrorist organizations. The previous administration basically handed them the keys to kill Americans with zero consequences.
President Trump and patriots like Senator Schmitt refuse to let this continue. They understand that we are at war whether we admit it or not, and the cartels have been winning because we tied our own hands. Senator Schmitt has introduced legislation to officially designate major cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. This would give our military and law enforcement the tools they need to fight back properly.
Even more importantly, Schmitt is pushing for authorization to use military force against these cartels. When foreign enemies are killing over 100,000 Americans every year, that is an act of war that demands a military response. We would never tolerate a foreign army killing this many Americans, so why do we tolerate drug cartels doing the exact same thing.
The Gulf Cartel, Sinaloa Cartel, and other criminal organizations have declared war on America through their poison. They have turned our southern border into a highway of death and destruction. These are not just drug dealers – they are terrorists who torture, murder, and destroy everything they touch while getting rich off American suffering.
Congress must act immediately to give President Trump every tool needed to destroy these cartels once and for all. We have the most powerful military in world history, and it is time to use it to protect American lives from foreign enemies. Senator Schmitt and other patriots are leading the charge, but they need every American to demand action from their representatives.
The time for half measures and political games is over when millions of American lives hang in the balance. We must treat the cartels like the terrorist enemies they are and destroy them before they destroy any more American families. Our children and grandchildren deserve to grow up in an America where foreign drug dealers cannot murder them with impunity.
