The Biden administration's hesitance to confront violent drug cartels operating just across the U.S.-Mexico border has led to a dangerous escalation of crime and violence in American neighborhoods.
However, the Trump administration is demonstrating a strong commitment to tackling this menace head-on, as evidenced by the recent sanctions imposed on the Mexico-based terrorist organization, Cartel del Noreste.
Announced by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, these sanctions target two high-ranking members of the cartel, including Miguel Angel de Anda Ledezma, who oversees the procurement of firearms and ammunition, and Ricardo Gonzalez Sauceda, the cartel's former second-in-command.
With the cartels' involvement in drugs, human trafficking, and arms dealing threatening the safety of American citizens, the Trump administration is making it clear that it will not turn a blind eye.
These measures, which freeze the assets of cartel members within the United States and prevent them from engaging in business, highlight a proactive stance that stands in stark contrast to the lackadaisical approach of the current administration.
In February, the cartel was classified as a Foreign Terrorist Organization, underscoring the need for aggressive action.
The Trump administration had already imposed sanctions on multiple individuals and entities associated with cartels, reflecting an ongoing commitment to dismantling these violent organizations—a pledge often missing from the Biden agenda.
In these tumultuous times, it is refreshing to see leaders prioritizing the safety and security of the American people over a hands-off approach that has proven insufficient.
As the country continues to grapple with rampant crime and insecurity, the drive to target and neutralize these cartels is more critical than ever, ensuring that Americans can live free from the terror of organized crime.
Such decisive actions reaffirm the necessity of strong leadership committed to keeping our borders secure and our communities safe.
