How many moves do they have. Besides retirement

Trump is about to stomp out $100s of billions a year in revenue. They make $15 billion a year just in human trafficking

Not saying clear suicide is an intelligent response, but this is existential for them

Not unless they bring back James K Polk.

He'd revived Winfield to beat their arse again.

I've seen it claimed they make as much on human trafficking as they do drugs.

No idea if that is accurate, but with the border being essentially closed, the numbers seem to show that, they have already taken a huge hit to their income.

Doubt they go quietly as their revenue streams are shut off.

Trump needs to come out and clearly state that if ONE American soldier, cop, border patrol, etc dies due to the cartels attacking them on our side of the border, the United States military will retaliate here and all over Mexico with or without the Mexicans government permission!
That includes deep into Mexico, basically anywhere the intel will take them! And you better NOT get in the way because you will be part of the carnage!
America is not fricking around any more!!

Let me first say I love Trump and think he’s the best thing to happen to this country since George Washington.

But between this and the earlier threat to shoot down repatriation flight I’m starting to wonder if we’re not setting up the cartels to pick a war with them.

Remember the Maine
Gulf of Tonkin / USS Maddox
WMD in Iraq
Etc…


Given that the Mexican government is corrupt yo the core and infiltrated by the cartels and how many Americans are killed by the drug trade / fentanyl etc… and all the human trafficking etc… and how complacent and numb we’ve all become about it all, I’ll allow it and dgaf if that’s what’s happening.


Looking forward to watching the Cartels find out whether or not they’re actually behind the recent fricking around or not. They’ve got it coming.

I wouldn't be surprised by a false flag op and frankly wouldn't be that bothered by it. I support wiping out the cartels but do have concerns about how it would be done in a way that doesn't unleash a wave of asylum seekers that would be hard to turn away legally.

Them starting a war with the US doesn't seem like it would increase the likelihood of regaining that revenue stream.

Like you said, if this happens, it's likely a false flag to kick off more MIC spending and create a new WOT.

While I have no doubt our tier 1ops would win a war with the cartels. I do not think people understand the cartels capabilities. They have hired the best of the best from all over the planet, they have the same equipment we would have and know the terrain and infrastructure. They own judges, law enforcement and have people imbedded in every major city in the US. They would know days before we hit. It’s a war the like we have never fought before. We would have to resort to air power to soften alot of targets. This is not a 2 day war, this is a long term engagement.

Yeah they don’t want to FAFO. If they think the CIA doesn’t know where they all are then I don’t know what to tell you. They probably don’t want to piss off the country of their biggest customer as it won’t work out well for them.

After two days of bombing and special ops on their arse they will be hiding just like the cowards in the Middle East . You will see how much of a puzzy they truly are. These people have to go . They have ruined our way of life and it’s time to pull the trigger. Trump and Hegseth are plotting a plan now to take these cowards out.

I do not disagree with the vile pieces of shite they are. I just do not believe it will be a cake walk. They deserve all the pain we can dish out.

You well see when it finally goes down. They are a bunch of evil cowards that don’t care about human life. Only money. I lost a son to fentanyl and I hope every single one of them die. Freeze all their bank accounts and take every thing they own and then move on to China . The US as lost a half a million people to these terrorist .
