Buck Brief - Has Trump Declared a Real War on Drugs?

it's the beginning of a whole change in policy. Look, I watched it live.

should be consequences to being labeled the narco trafficker. Now I understand arrest seizure of funds, but that hasn't been enough to stop the narco trafficking rings that continue to bring large amounts of drugs into our country and kill

a lot of Americans in the process. Remember, it's not just the drug overdoses, although that's the number that we most understandably focus on talk about the casualties from the War on drugs on our side, it's also the societal decay and the criminality that builds around these different drug activities. So drug gangs in Chicago, for example, when people talk

about gang activity, what are gangs involved in? Usually drugs, maybe selling guns, but selling drugs, drug wars for turf and that leads to a lot of the homicides, right, because how do they fund themselves, how do they get money, and how do they try to get more clout on the street. They're selling illegal drugs and this has been the case for as long as any of us have been alive. So this is what's going on, and the Trump administration has said this is not going to continue

the way that it has been in the past. You know, we used to talk about a war on drugs in a rhetorical sense under the Reagan administration. But then I know that there were dea efforts and paramilitary stuff going on. But when you're now just going to blow up designated narco traffickers as a military target, which is what just happened,

this is a dramatic escalation. We've never seen anything quite like this before, and I think you're going to see a lot more in the military takes on the cartel realm. I've been told this for a while by the Trump White House. This is going to be happening, that they are going to essentially take the counter terrorism apparatus and use it as a counter narcotics apparatus. So think of

it this way. The federal agencies, the technology, the infrastructure, the personnel that they have used in the past to go after al Qaeda is now going to be used to go after the Maduro cartel. Mduro is actually a designated head of a drug cartel. It's important remember that the head of Venezuela is a designated drug cartel leader, and he's making probably billions of dollars off of illegal drug sales in the United States and has to distribute

that among his cronies and others at some level. But he's making a lot of money, and he's a very bad, very dangerous guy. So when we talk about what can be done here, let's understand what has been done in the past. Fails does not stop the importation of these illegal drugs into the country in tremendous quantity. And something now is very different from the Trump administration approach kinetic strikes as they used to say in the old counter

terrorism days, missiles, warheads on foreheads. This is the era we are entering of the actual war on drugs. And now you have the Mexican cartels to think about as well. I think for a lot of US try Aragua and ships off of Venezuela. That's one thing. The Mexican drug cartels. We've seen the extreme First of all, they're right up against the United States, up against their border. We've seen the extreme violence that they are capable of on their

side of the border. You go back to two thousand and ten roughly and eleven twelve, what was going on in Juarez. It was al Qaeda level sadistic violence from the cartels. And they've had many years now of getting rich not just on the illegal importation of illegal selling of drugs, also the human trafficking component. They've made a ton of money bringing illegals into this country because they

control that smuggling operation as well. So they're incredibly well funded, and we may go after them and find that this starts to look a lot more like a major paramilitary operation, something along the lines of what we saw in the War on Terror. Not with one hundred thousand US troops in Mexico obviously, but drone strikes, special operations personnel. This

could be happening. The fact that the Trump administration is willing to blow a speedboat with I think I think eleven people in it, just blow it up, that means that they're taking a whole new view view of what is permissible in this war and what's going on here, so it's now our sponsor, Paradigm Press. It's not unusual for new tech companies to find their fifteen minutes of fame. Remember that open source AI model developed in Asia. We

talked about this a while back. Everybody's talking about it. They showed up strong, a company based in China with AI technology that rivaled a well known AI chatbot and others for attention, app downloads and more. Just their presence was enough to make everyone think that maybe other AI entities were spending too much money when they could do it for just a few million bucks. The presence of this temporarily wiped out a trillion dollars in market value.

A China based energy with AI technology not a good combo in US soil served as a reminder to all of us of how important it is to develop AI technology in America. And the Trump administration agrees. Guess what they're working on something I call the Manhattan Project too. To take back our lead in the AI race, I break it all down at a brand new interview, including the companies that I believe could soar when this comes about. This interview and all the details online on a new website.

We're taking this one off air so to speak, off air twenty five dot com. That's off air twenty five dot com paid for by Paradigm Press. Now, uh, I actually want to talk to you a little bit about what's going on with the Chris Martin of what's that band called Coldplay? Situation. Here, just take a little little diversion for a minute. This guy brings some Israelis up on stage and he says, oh, well, here's what he said.

this to any other nationality in the world. I don't think he would do it to Russians. I don't think you do it to North Koreans. I don't think he would feel the need to say, well, clearly you're a bad You're from like the bad people place, which is in this case Israel, and I want to tell all the people that you're oppressing, in this case Palestine, that I'm with them too, but I'll treat you like a human.

This goes to the brain rot around the issue of Israel and Palestine, and that so many people would think just their gut instinct is that there is a need, they have a need to express to everybody that they have a problem with Israel and that they are on the side ultimately of the Palestinians than all this and it shouldn't have to be this way. It should not

have to be this situation. But the media in a lot of cases is caught up in this victim ideology and this victim narrative of the Palestinians as the innocent victims of this whole situation. Even more so, you know, there's more animosity for somebody like this lead singer of Coldplay. There's more animal toward Israel than there is toward Russia. Think about that. That's the gut instinct of a doctrinaire.

Makes it sound too fancy of a superficial surface level lib leftist today is yeah, i have to side with Palestine over Israel. And I'm more angry at Israel than I even am at Russia when it comes to Ukraine. So you see this on display, and it's indicative of a mindset with a lot of these people who go

around saying they care so much about about Palestine. As has been pointed out many times, if the people in Palestine, or rather in Gaza, not in Palestine, that the people in Gaza were, if the whole plan was to kill them all, why haven't the Israelis killed them all because they could do it. If it was starvation, why are the Israelis providing them food? Because they're providing them food. This is really when you think through this you can find very quickly that there are lies being told. Our

sponsor here is Preborn. Look. We want to save lives from abortion every day in this country. And for our friends working at the Preborn Network of Clinics, they're doing that. They're actually on the frontline saving lives from abortion. Thousands and thousands of women across the country right now are thinking about what should I do. I have an unplanned pregnancy. I'm in a crisis moment. Should I have an abortion or should I have my child? Preborn offers these women

love support and an ultrasound. Just come in, meet your baby and let's talk. Preborn is an incredible organization saving so many lives in this way.

now you've got. Malcolm Gladwell has come out and said that he was a coward on the trans issue, and he takes some ownership of that, some responsibility for that. He's a very rich, very famous guy, probably the most financially successful pop pop journalist I guess you'd say of his generation, and he wouldn't tell the truth on the trans thing in sports and sports specifically. Now this is interesting to me because I'm seeing people say Woke is dead.

I see this online. Woke is not dead. Woke is the ultimate zombie ideology because it was never about a good art. It's just about power. So I want to remind everybody who is maybe a little too a little too final, and a little too triumphant in their view of this, that Woke can make a comeback. These arguments, this ideology that pushed this was rooted in raw power, emotional blackmail, and inability to get people to go against what they knew to be publicly true in order to

really debase them and debase their intellect. Right, Because once, as I've said so many times, once you get people to lie about the most obvious things, you can get people lie about all the things. And that there are now public figures who will come forward and say that they were unwilling to speak the truth on this, I think tells you a lot about how powerful the apparatus was, how powerful the system was that was pushing along these lines.

And it is unrepent and the people who truly believe this stuff, to the degree that any of us can tell what that number is or what that percentage would be, the people who truly believe this stuff, they still believe it because it was never rooted in what is true. It was rooted in what they want to feel and how they want to position themselves vis a vis others, and that has not changed. So Woke is in recession. Woke is in retreat. But I do not believe woke

is dead. And if it is dead, it's a zombie ideology. It's gonna wake from the grave and try to bite us just to question a when So, do not lose your vigilance do not lose your sense of this is something we may have to deal with again in the not too distant future. We're not gonna have Trump, who's an incredible brawler against this stuff, forever leading the movement. You know, you, things can change in a hurry. Trump's only got one more term here, and then there's gonna

an election. And I'm telling you, if Democrats find a way to get back into power, they will try to force this crazy ideological stuff on us once again. All right, there's one statistic that no one's happy to hear about, but you need to know. Home invasions happen nationwide every thirty seconds or so. No matter what the number of home security systems installed is, it's happening far too often. This is why it makes sense to protect yourself. There's

a company by the name of Saber. Sabre does a great job of manufacturing non lethal weapons and devices to protect you and your family. Saber products have safeguarded hundreds of thousands of people.
