Mike Waltz: Cartels Are Not Like the Mafia, They Are More Like ISIS

EXCERPT:

WALTZ: “But you’ve also seen, which is important, a much tougher approach on the cartels working with the Mexican government. Look, these cartels control whole swaths of Mexico and our southern border. That is completely unacceptable. And these groups aren’t like the mafia, they’re more like ISIS. They are combating the Mexican army in full-on firefights, they are shooting at aircraft. They deserve all aspects of our national power to be used against them to defend our sovereignty, to defend our borders, and that’s why you’ve seen the Defense Department under Secretary Hegseth and Trump’s leadership shift its assets to actually defend America first."
