There’s a war being fought in our backyards, and the casualties are our own children. For too long, a relentless tide of fentanyl and other poisons has poured across our southern border, orchestrated by vicious narco-terrorist cartels. It’s a national disgrace that has hollowed out communities and stolen a generation.
The response from Washington? The usual D.C. shuffle of useless task forces and empty, strongly-worded letters. We’ve seen decades of bureaucratic foot-dragging while the enemy grew bolder and our people died. That era of managed American decline is officially over.
From ‘The Daily Wire’:
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced “Operation Southern Spear” on Thursday as tensions between the U.S. and Venezuela, and the U.S. and its European allies, mount over the Trump administration’s lethal strikes on drug traffickers…
“Led by Joint Task Force Southern Spear and [U.S. Southern Command], this mission defends our Homeland, removes narco-terrorists from our Hemisphere, and secures our Homeland from the drugs that are killing our people. The Western Hemisphere is America’s neighborhood – and we will protect it.”
And let’s be clear: this isn’t another paper-pushing exercise from the swamp. Announced by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, “Operation Southern Spear” is a direct order from President Donald Trump to hunt down and destroy the cartels that are waging war on us.
A New Resolve in America’s Neighborhood
The administration’s new rules of engagement are refreshingly simple. “My advice to foreign terrorist organizations is do not get in a boat,” Secretary Hegseth bluntly stated. “If you’re trafficking drugs to poison the American people… we will find you and we will kill you.” Simple. Direct. Effective. It’s about time someone in Washington spoke with that kind of moral clarity.
This isn’t just talk. President Trump has deployed the USS Gerald R. Ford—the largest and most lethal aircraft carrier on the planet—to lead a massive strike group in the Caribbean. With over 10,000 personnel, advanced F-35 fighters, and Reaper drones, the message is unambiguous: the party is over for drug traffickers.
Naturally, this show of American backbone has the usual suspects clutching their pearls. In Venezuela, the failed socialist state run by dictator Nicolas Maduro is putting on a show, mobilizing its military against the so-called “imperialist threat.” It’s a pathetic bit of theater from a corrupt regime that profits from the chaos on our border. When your business model is threatened, you start throwing tantrums.
The Faintheartedness of So-Called Allies
It’s not just our enemies who are whining. Some of our supposed allies in Europe, along with the UK, are lecturing us about “international law” and have even cut off intelligence sharing. They are perfectly happy to hide behind American protection when it suits them, but object when we defend our own home.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio exposed their stunning hypocrisy perfectly. “I do find it interesting that all these countries want us to send and supply… nuclear-capable Tomahawk missiles to defend Europe, but when the United States positions aircraft carriers in our hemisphere, where we live, somehow that’s a problem?” It’s a perfect shutdown of their two-faced logic.
The quiet war on American families finally has a loud, ferocious response. Operation Southern Spear is proof that an “America First” foreign policy means using American strength to protect American lives, regardless of what the globalist hand-wringers think. The message to the world is clear: America is back, and we will defend our neighborhood.
Key Takeaways
- President Trump has authorized direct military action against narco-terrorists poisoning America.
- Securing the homeland requires taking the fight directly to the source in our hemisphere.
- A massive U.S. naval presence now enforces a zero-tolerance policy on drug traffickers.
- Predictable criticism from corrupt regimes and weak allies highlights America’s need for self-reliance.
