(Daily Signal)—Under the leadership of President Donald Trump, border czar Tom Homan promises that the Mexican criminal cartels are going to be “exterminated.”
“They’re going to be wiped off the face of the earth because they’re now [regarded as] terrorist organizations, and we’re going to treat them as such,” Homan said in an interview with The Daily Signal.
On his first day in office, Trump signed an executive order designating the “international cartels and other organizations,” including Tren de Aragua and MS-13, as Foreign Terrorist Organizations.
“It is the policy of the United States to ensure the total elimination of these organizations’ presence in the United States,” Trump’s executive action states.
The cartels run multibillion-dollar human- and drug-smuggling operations out of Mexico, and some sources estimate that as many as 185,000 people are actively working for these cartels.
Pressed on whether it would be possible for the U.S. to dismantle Mexico’s criminal cartels, Homan said, “Yes, look what President Trump did to the caliphate. Look what he did to ISIS. If he can do that halfway across the world, he can that at our southern border.”
In 2019, Trump celebrated the defeat of the Islamic State caliphate in Syria.
If the U.S. took steps to dismantle the cartels, Homan said, he thinks Mexico would be willing to help because it would make the country safer and increase tourism.
“Mexico is a corrupt nation, in large part because the cartels control much of the government, the military and the law enforcement,” Homan said, adding that officials are not necessarily voluntarily working with the cartels, but are under tremendous pressure to do so.
“A lot of these law enforcement, military, and politicians are forced into a position of either you assist the cartels, or you face execution, you and your family,” he said.
The U.S. could “really improve life in Mexico by taking out the criminal element,” the border czar said.
Homan has been working to secure America’s borders and defend the U.S. against the cartels since he joined the Border Patrol in the 1980s. As Trump’s border czar, Homan is overseeing the mass arrest and deportation of illegal aliens, with a targeted focus on criminal illegal aliens and those who pose a security threat to the country.
Under Trump and Homan’s leadership, the administration has carried out more than 100,000 deportations since Jan. 20 and made 113,000 arrests of illegal immigrants.
With the reinstatement of the “Remain in Mexico” policy, which requires illegal aliens to wait in Mexico for their asylum hearings instead of being released into the U.S., and increased security measures at the border, the cartels are “pissed off,” Homan said.
“They were making a record amount of money in the Biden administration,” he said of the cartels, adding, “They were doing record amounts of profit in [human] smuggling, sex-trafficking women and children, [and] record amounts of profit in drug smuggling,” he said.
The policies of the Trump administration are “hurting their bottom line,” the blunt-spoken border czar said, adding that intelligence reports he has seen indicate the cartels are now “smuggling more of the fentanyl and other narcotics to European nations, where there’s less control.”
The policy changes at the border, according to Homan, will not only lead to less drugs entering the country, which means fewer overdose deaths, but will also diminish the cartel’s exploitation of migrants.
Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
