Former President Biden Once Called For Strikes Against Drug Cartels-lllllllll
Former President Joe Biden, while serving as a U.S. senator from Delaware, called for an international military response against drug traffickers in a fiery 1989 speech that has resurfaced amid current controversy over the Trump administration’s anti-drug strikes. “Let’s go after the drug lords where they live with an international strike force,” Biden said in a 1989 address, Fox News reported. “There must be no safe haven for these narco terrorists and they must know it.”
Biden made the remarks while delivering the Democratic Party’s official response to then-President George H.W. Bush’s Sept. 5, 1989, speech outlining his administration’s efforts to combat the crack cocaine epidemic, according to C SPAN footage.
Bush announced plans to double federal assistance to state and local law enforcement, provide $65 million in emergency aid to nations including Colombia to fight cocaine cartels, and increase federal drug enforcement spending by $1.5 billion.
In response, Biden argued the Bush administration was not going far enough and called for what he described as “another D Day” in the war on drugs.“The president says he wants to wage a war on drugs, but if that’s true, what we need is another D Day, not another Vietnam, not another limited war fought on the cheap and destined for stalemate and human tragedy,” Biden said.
At the time, Biden also described drug trafficking as the top threat to U.S. national security during the height of the cocaine and crack epidemics that gripped American cities in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
“We speak with great concern about the drug problem in America today, but we fail to appreciate or address it for what it really is, the number one threat to our national security,” Biden said.
“It affects the readiness of our army, the productivity of our workers and the achievement of our students and the very health and safety of our families,” he added.
Biden warned that the United States was already under attack by drug cartels, comparing the situation to Colombia’s battle with narco terror groups.
“America is under attack, literally under attack by an enemy who is well financed, well supplied and well armed,” Biden said. “Here in America, the enemy is already ashore, and for the first time, we are fighting and losing the war on our own soil.”
The comments have resurfaced as Democrats criticize President Donald Trump’s administration for a series of military strikes targeting suspected drug trafficking boats linked to Venezuela.
Since September, the administration has carried out at least 22 strikes on suspected drug vessels in Caribbean and Central American waters, killing dozens of alleged traffickers.
Administration officials have defended the actions, arguing the United States is engaged in an armed conflict with transnational drug cartels that have evolved into terror organizations.
Trump has said the strikes are aimed at stopping narcotics from flooding into the United States and has linked the effort to increased pressure on Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
Democrats have objected to a Sept. 2 operation in which U.S. forces struck a suspected drug boat and later fired a second strike that killed two alleged traffickers.
“If the reports are true, Pete Hegseth likely committed a war crime when he gave an illegal order that led to the killing of incapacitated survivors of the U.S. strike in the Caribbean,” Sen. Jacky Rosen of Nevada said in a statement.
Republican lawmakers on the House Armed Services and Foreign Affairs committees said the administration acted within its authority and called for additional briefings on the operations.
BANNED' - Clinton Judge Reads Her Verdict - President Donald Trump Has Been Informed That He Just Beat Gavin Newsom...
JUDICIAL RECKONING
The return of national sovereignty and administrative lethality reached a new milestone this Thursday, April 9, 2026. A blockbuster ruling in Los Angeles has left the DNC establishment and globalist elite reeling.
A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction against California’s controversial "No Secret Police Act," blocking the state from prohibiting ICE agents from wearing masks. Judge Christina Snyder ruled the law unconstitutional, marking a decisive victory for President Donald J. Trump and the Department of Justice.
The court affirmed the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause, stating California cannot discriminate against federal officers while exempting its own law enforcement. Attorney General Pamela Bondi praised the ruling, emphasizing the administration’s zero-tolerance stance on harassment of federal agents.
This decision reflects the 2026 mandate: a legal framework prioritizing the safety of American officers over the sanctuary policies pushed by Governor Gavin Newsom. It signals a sweeping rollback of state overreach in immigration enforcement.
Meanwhile, in Texas, a federal jury delivered historic terrorism convictions against nine members of a radical antifa cell. The group was found guilty for a violent 2025 attack on an ICE detention facility that left a police officer shot in the neck.
Ringleader Benjamin Song faces potential life imprisonment after evidence proved the attack was a coordinated assault using explosives and rifles—not the “noise demonstration” the defense claimed. Prosecutors called the verdict a landmark affirmation of Trump’s domestic terror designation.
With Kash Patel at the FBI and Todd Blanche at the DOJ, the dismantling of extremist cells has accelerated. Federal agencies continue to secure detention centers like Prairieland against those attempting to destabilize the republic.
Governor Gavin Newsom attempted to spin the court ruling as a “win,” citing the upheld “No Vigilantes Act.” But the truth remains: the centerpiece of his anti-ICE agenda—the “No Secret Police Act”—has been effectively struck down.
The defeat exposes the weakening foundation of California’s sanctuary policies. While Sacramento prioritizes the “civil rights” of illegal aliens, the Trump administration is defending the constitutional rights of federal officers.
The week closes as a sweeping administrative triumph for the Trump-GOP platform. From Los Angeles courtrooms to Texas jury boxes, real results—not rhetoric—are forging the 2026 midterm shield.
With 5% GDP growth and a secure border, the nation is reclaiming its stability and sovereignty. America moves forward with vigilance, resolve, and a renewed commitment to law and order.
God bless the USA—and the leaders who refuse to bow to the swamp or the radical mob.
oFar Left 'Squad' Member Learns Her Fate As Her Primary Election is Called
Washington D.C. — The far-left “Squad” took another massive hit Tuesday night as Missouri Democrat Rep. Cori Bush was soundly defeated in her primary by challenger Wesley Bell, who led by double digits with 54.9% to Bush’s 41.8%.
Bush, one of the most extreme voices in Congress, joins Rep. Jamaal Bowman as the second Squad member to lose her seat this cycle. Her defeat is a clear rejection of the radical socialist, anti-police, pro-Hamas agenda she has pushed since entering Congress in 2021.
Bush rose to prominence after participating in the Ferguson riots and has spent years promoting false narratives about Michael Brown while calling for defunding the police — even as violent crime soared in her St. Louis district. She has repeatedly aligned herself with pro-Hamas protesters, blamed Israel for the October 7 massacre, and faced controversy over allegedly funneling thousands of campaign dollars to her husband for “security services” while demanding less police protection for her constituents.
Republicans celebrated the win with well-deserved mockery. Pro-Trump comedian Terrance K. Williams posted:
“A ‘BLACK JOB’ IS SOMETHING CORI BUSH DOES NOT HAVE. OH HAPPY DAY! She is the second Squad member to lose her seat! I can’t wait until they are all gone.”
Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz, who served with Bush on the House Judiciary Committee, sarcastically noted:
“I will miss Cori Bush missing every committee meeting.”
Students for Trump co-founder Ryan Fournier added:
“The Squad’s Cori Bush has LOST her primary. Join me in saying GOOD RIDDANCE! Hamas might be hiring, Cori!”
Even actor Michael Rapaport, a vocal Israel supporter, celebrated:
“Tonight at the rally they said let’s bring back ‘JOY’ to politics and boom CORI BUSH is done with Politics…. I feel JOY all of a sudden.”
This is the second straight blow to the radical Squad. Jamaal Bowman lost his primary earlier after endorsing pro-Hamas demonstrators on college campuses. Both Bush and Bowman blamed their defeats on pro-Israel funding from AIPAC rather than admitting the truth: their extreme, anti-American, and anti-Israel positions have become toxic to voters.
The radical left’s Squad is crumbling because the American people are rejecting their agenda of defunding police, embracing socialism, supporting radical Islamists, and putting foreign interests above American citizens. Voters want secure borders, safe streets, strong economy, and leaders who put America First — not performative radicals who miss committee meetings and push policies that hurt their own districts.
Under President Donald J. Trump’s leadership, the Republican Party is becoming the party of working Americans, law and order, and common sense. Meanwhile, the Democrat Party continues its death spiral — hemorrhaging voters, losing favorability, and watching its most extreme members get rejected at the ballot box.
Cori Bush’s defeat is not just a loss for one radical congresswoman. It is a rejection of the entire Squad’s toxic ideology. The American people are waking up and choosing sanity over socialism, strength over weakness, and America First over America Last.
More Squad members are on the ballot soon. The trend is clear: radicalism is losing, and the America First movement is winning.
