As attacks on Venezuelan narco-terrorists continue to escalate, President Trump is reportedly reading phase two of the operation to take down the drug trade. According to a report from NBC News, the Trump administration is planning a mission to send U.S. troops into Mexico — boots on the ground — to target drug cartels. Here are the details: BREAKING: President Trump is planning to send US troops into MEXICO to target drug cartels, per NBC This is EXACTLY how our military should be used. Defending our OWN homeland. pic.twitter.com/pJyUnrUkhJ — Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) November 3, 2025   The potential deployment of troops in Mexico would include using drone strikes to take out drug labs and cartel leaders. NBC News has more details: The Trump administration has begun detailed planning for a new mission to send American troops and intelligence officers into Mexico to target drug cartels, according to two U.S. officials and two former senior U.S. officials familiar with the effort. The early stages of training for the potential mission, which would include ground operations inside Mexico, has already begun, the two current U.S. officials said. But a deployment to Mexico is not imminent, the two U.S. officials and one of the former U.S. officials said. Discussions about the scope of the mission are ongoing, and a final decision has not been made, the two current U.S. officials said. The U.S. troops, many of whom would be from Joint Special Operations Command, would operate under the authority of the U.S. intelligence community, known as Title 50 status, the two current officials said. They said officers from the CIA also would participate. A U.S. mission using American forces to hit drug cartel targets inside Mexico would open a new front in President Donald Trump’s military campaign against drug cartels in the Western Hemisphere. So far, the administration has focused on Venezuela and conducting strikes on alleged drug-carrying boats. The mission currently being planned for would be a break with past U.S. administrations, which have quietly deployed CIA, military and law enforcement teams to Mexico to support local police and army units fighting cartels but not to take direct action against them. If the mission is given the final green light, the administration plans to maintain secrecy around it and not publicize actions associated with it, as it has with recent bombings of suspected drug-smuggling boats, the two current and two former U.S. officials said. “The Trump administration is committed to utilizing an all-of-government approach to address the threats cartels pose to American citizens,” a senior administration official said in response to this story. The CIA declined to comment. The Pentagon referred questions to the White House. Under the new mission being planned, U.S. troops in Mexico would mainly use drone strikes to hit drug labs and cartel members and leaders, the two current U.S. officials and two former U.S. officials said. Some of the drones that special forces would use require operators to be on the ground to use them effectively and safely, the officials said. This type of direct action could be what is needed to finally put an end to the dangerous drug trade, which is to blame for countless Americans’ deaths. If your country won’t protect its people, it’s not a country, it’s a playground for criminals. Send the troops, finish the job — John (@johnEiid) November 3, 2025 However, the Trump administration may face some hurdles from Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, who appears to be against the idea. Newsweek noted: Reports have circulated for months floating the possibility of U.S. troops getting involved directly in the fight against Mexican drug cartels. Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum has previously rejected the idea. “The United States is not going to come to Mexico with the military,” Sheinbaum said in August. “We cooperate, we collaborate, but there is not going to be an invasion. That is ruled out, absolutely ruled out.” The White House is reported to be trying to avoid a military invasion, instead opting to deploy troops as agents and carry out the mission largely in secret, using drone strikes to hit drug labs and cartel members. What do you think? Would you support sending U.S. military troops into Mexico to take out drug cartels?

Charlie Kirk’s widow Erika gave her first full interview since her husband’s tragic death to Fox News‘ Jesse Watters. The full interview will air this Wednesday, November 5th. But, Fox News has released a few preview clips ahead of the full release date. In one clip, Erika Kirk shared a heartbreaking update on how she handles questions from her young daughter about Charlie. Watch what she had to say here: Jesse Watters: “You told your children that Charlie [Kirk] was going on a work trip with Jesus. Are they still asking ‘Where’s Daddy?’” Erika Kirk: “Yes, my daughter continues to ask, but it’s really sweet because I keep explaining to her a few things, and I said, ‘If ever you… pic.twitter.com/SYOVIWOKl6 — RedWave Press (@RedWave_Press) November 3, 2025 Jesse Watters: “You told your children that Charlie [Kirk] was going on a work trip with Jesus. Are they still asking ‘Where’s Daddy?’” Erika Kirk: “Yes, my daughter continues to ask, but it’s really sweet because I keep explaining to her a few things, and I said, ‘If ever you want to talk to Daddy. You just look up to the sky and start talking to him. He can hear you.’” “I told her, I said, ‘You know, Daddy’s in Heaven.’ She goes, ‘You think I can go sometime?’ I said, ‘Baby, we will all go one day. We will all go one day.’” HEARTBREAKING!!! As a mother, this is so gut-wrenching, as I’m sure many of you will agree. Charlie and Erika Kirk’s oldest daughter is just three years old. During her press conference a few days after Charlie was assassinated, Erika Kirk addressed how she broke the horrific news to their daughter. People recalled: During a Sept. 12 press conference, Erika broke her silence about her husband’s death and how the children were coping. She addressed the difficulties of explaining a concept like death to a young child, saying that she opted for a different approach. “What do you tell a 3-year-old? She’s 3,” Erika said. “I said, ‘Baby, daddy loves you so much. Don’t you worry. He’s on a work trip with Jesus, so he can afford your blueberry budget.’ “ Losing a parent at such a young age is tremendously sad. Charlie’s daughter especially appeared to have a very strong bond with her daddy. Please keep this young girl and the rest of Charlie Kirk’s family in your prayers. May the Lord bless them.

The Trump administration works fast. Amazing. For context, I waited months for the drug, like everyone else. But I think my files got misplaced or something and that glitch just got corrected. Not sure. This is wonderful news. During Monday's episode of his podcast, Scott Adams also shared how several members of President Trump's administration and Don Jr. personally called him to ensure he gets what he needs. Watch this: INCREDIBLE: Scott Adams shares powerful news: Over the weekend, Donald Trump Jr., HHS Secretary RFK Jr., and CMS Administrator Dr. Oz personally called to make sure he gets the help and treatment he needs: “I was contacted by Don Jr. Who was literally in Africa.

Please pray for Scott Adams' health and that this drug proves successful for him! However, Adams' struggle to receive the cancer drug he needs desperately in order to survive is not an isolated incident. As Adams noted in his post, many people suffering from cancer have faced the same problem, with treatment often getting delayed by months. In the case of late-stage or terminal cancer, timing is so important. You really can't afford to wait months for treatment! Perhaps this should serve as a wake-up call for the Trump administration to start fixing the health system in order to ensure that all cancer patients can access the drugs they desperately, and quickly, need. Exactly this: I'm glad for you. Still, if you were a shoe salesman from Sacramento, you wouldn't be getting special attention and privileges. This is wonderful for you, I'm not saying it isn't. Just that health care shouldn't be about fame. You should get this, but so should everyone else.… — P.S. Power (@DaleLPower) November 4, 2025 I'm glad for you. Still, if you were a shoe salesman from Sacramento, you wouldn't be getting special attention and privileges. This is wonderful for you, I'm not saying it isn't. Just that health care shouldn't be about fame. You should get this, but so should everyone else. We need to fix the system. Somehow. Your thoughts?
