Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has a bill ready to show President Joe Biden that would allow the U.S. to use its military against Mexican drug cartels:
GRAHAM: “Well, I would follow Bill Barr’s advice and get tough on Mexico. It’s not just the hostages. Number one, I would do everything I could to get them back. I would do what Trump did. I would put Mexico on notice if you continue to give safe haven to fentanyl drug dealers, then you are an enemy of the United States. 70 to 100,000 people have died from fentanyl poisoning coming from Mexico and China and this administration has done nothing about it. I’m going to introduce legislation, jesse, to make certain mexican drug cartels, foreign terrorist organizations, under U.S. law and set the stage to use military force if necessary to protect America from being poisoned why things coming out of Mexico. So what would Lindsey Graham do? I would tell mexican government if you don’t clean up your act, we’re going to clean it up for.”
Unfortunately, two of the four American tourists were killed. They were kidnapped “after being caught in the crossfire of rival cartels shortly after crossing the U.S. border with Mexico.”
Fox News showed a video of the men kidnapping the Americans. Authorities think it was a mistaken identity:
The video of the violent incident shows armed men in body armor dragging one person across the pavement and pushing a woman into the bed of a white truck, then dragging two more men who appear to be wounded across the pavement and loading them into the bed of the same truck.Photos from the scene show a white minivan with North Carolina plates riddled with bullet holes shortly after the kidnappings, with a woman who reportedly witnessed the attack telling the Associated Press she saw the minivan collide with another vehicle before hearing gunfire and seeing armed men approach the van.”All of a sudden they (the gunmen) were in front of us,” said the woman, who declined to be identified for fear of retaliation. “I entered a state of shock, nobody honked their horn, nobody moved. Everybody must have been thinking the same thing, ‘If we move they will see us, or they might shoot us.’”
