The Trump administration has officially confirmed that U.S. intelligence agencies provided critical support for Mexico's recent massive military strike against the notorious Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), marking a dramatic escalation in President Trump's war on the cartels poisoning American communities.

White House sources confirmed Monday that American intelligence assets were instrumental in the coordinated assault that saw Mexican military and police forces clear cartel roadblocks and strike key CJNG positions across western Mexico. The operation represents the kind of aggressive, no-nonsense approach to the cartel crisis that Americans voted for in November.

This is exactly what America First foreign policy looks like, Patriots. Instead of sending billions overseas to Ukraine while our border bleeds, President Trump is using American intelligence capabilities to directly target the criminal organizations flooding our streets with fentanyl and trafficking children across our southern border.

Mexico Finally Gets Serious

The Mexican military's willingness to take on the Jalisco cartel - one of the most violent and powerful drug trafficking organizations in the hemisphere - signals a major shift from the previous administration's failed approach. While Biden's team sat on their hands as cartels operated with impunity, Trump's people are taking the fight directly to these murderous criminals.

"The situation in Mexico is still unfolding, but things seem to be calming down a little," according to reports from the ground, as Mexican forces have successfully cleared most cartel roadblocks as of Monday morning.

"This is what happens when America leads from strength, not weakness. The cartels understand only one language - force."

The CJNG has been responsible for countless American deaths through fentanyl trafficking and has turned entire regions of Mexico into war zones. Their reign of terror has driven massive migration northward while enriching themselves off human misery.

This intelligence cooperation shows President Trump is serious about dismantling the cartel networks that have treated our border like their personal highway. No more Mr. Nice Guy - it's time these criminals faced real consequences.

How many American lives could have been saved if this kind of decisive action had been taken four years ago instead of the Biden administration's catch-and-release policies?

FINALLY! Someone with the backbone to take these cartels seriously. This is exactly what we needed - hit them where it hurts.

Agreed 100%. The cartels have been running wild for too long.

I live 20 miles from the Mexican border and let me tell you, the cartel activity has been insane lately. My rancher neighbor finds drug runners crossing his property weekly. This kind of cooperation with Mexico might actually make a difference.

The Jalisco cartel has been one of the worst for fentanyl trafficking. If this intel sharing can dismantle their operations, it could save thousands of American lives. Smart move to work with Mexican forces who actually want to fight these criminals.

Question - does this mean we're sharing sensitive intelligence capabilities with Mexico? I support going after cartels but want to make sure we're not compromising our own security operations.

Good question. Hopefully it's just actionable intelligence, not methods and sources.
