1. DHS and Cartel Threats

• Shifts focus to U.S. homeland security.

• Reports that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has identified Mexican cartel-linked bounties placed on ICE and Border Patrol officers.

• Describes a tiered bounty system — $2,000 for doxing agents, up to $50,000 for assassinations.

• Blames cartels, street gangs (e.g., Latin Kings), and “Democrat leaders” for escalating violence and undermining ICE.

• References Facebook removing cartel-linked groups that targeted ICE agents.

2. Trump’s Response

• Donald Trump is taking decisive military action:

  • Authorizing strikes on drug boats and CIA operations in Venezuela.

  • Declaring drug cartels as terrorist organizations.

• Quotes Eric Trump defending these measures, emphasizing fentanyl deaths, crime in Chicago, and his father’s “war on the cartels.”

• Frames Democrats as soft on crime and complicit in cartel activity.
