This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.
For over fifty years, we’ve waged a “war on drugs.” A memo recently sent to Congress says President Trump has now declared we’re in a “non-international armed conflict with…designated terrorist organizations” and directed the Pentagon to conduct operations against them pursuant to the law of armed conflict.
Such operations have already resulted in the destruction of go-fast boats smuggling cocaine and fentanyl from Venezuela by a U.S. Navy task force in the Caribbean.
Inevitably, challenges to this policy will be pursued in court and in Congress. In the meantime, however, President Trump is creating powerful disincentives to our enemies waging what amounts to chemical warfare against us from the sea.
We must also hold accountable a prime enabler of such warfare – the Chinese Communist Party – that provides the cartels with precursors for fentanyl and meth and launders the proceeds of their sales.
