No one celebrated that election more than the criminal cartels. They knew they were back in business. The reason there's so much violence in Mexico right now is because the cartels are making more money than they've ever made in sex trafficking of women and children, alien smuggling, and the smuggling of narcotics. Now...
There's a lot of discontent in Mexico because President Trump has taken billions of dollars out of their pockets when he secures that border. So I think you're going to see more violence on the border. I don't think they're going to go away quietly.

I think President Trump did the right thing, designated them terrorist organizations because these cartels have killed more Americans than every terrorist organization in the world combined. But what they did to the border was on purpose. I agree 100%. Here's why I know it's on purpose. We never talk about this. Let me just mention this.

When Barack Obama was president, Joe Biden was vice president, Secretary Mayorkas was a deputy secretary. We had a surge of family groups coming across the border. How did we stop it? We built family residential centers. We held them long enough to see a judge. Ninety-one percent lost their case. We put them in an airplane and sent them home, and the border number is dumped.

So Mayorkas knows how we fixed it, and Biden knows how we fixed it. What did they do when he becomes president, Mayorkas becomes secretary? They don't contain him. They don't make him see a judge. They don't deport him. They did exactly the opposite of what proved worked when he was vice president, the secretary of my office, the deputy secretary. So this wasn't an accident.

They did the exact opposite of what they knew we succeeded with when President Obama was in office. So this wasn't, again, this was by design. They knew exactly what they were doing. And the reason they didn't detain them is because when an alien's in detention, they get a hearing within 40 days at top, which means in 40 days, that 91% be ordered to move and they go home.

That's not what they wanted. So they released them to NGOs, put them in a hotel room, because once you're out of ICE custody, it's called a non-detained docket. Non-detained docket takes anywhere from three years to nine years, depending on what city you're in. And they knew in that three to nine years, They'll get one or two U.S. citizen kids.

They'll get equities here, and hopefully a Democratic Congress and Democratic president that will reward them in amnesty. This is why they didn't detain them. They don't want them removed, so they figured they'd put them on the non-custody docket with the immigration court. Their cases are so far down the road that there'll be a change in the administration, and they can award them in amnesty.
