What challenges does Texas face with immigration?
Thank you for coming on, Mr. Attorney General. Glad to be here. So, the most pressing problem, I think it's fair to say, as an outsider in Texas is immigration. It's totally changed your state in every way. Do you expect that the new administration and the executive orders in the first couple of days are going to have a material effect, a noticeable effect?
I know they are, just because I saw what happened four years ago, or eight years ago, when Trump came into office. I mean, I went through, I've been in politics since Bush was in office, and And I've seen how Republicans and Democrats have dealt with immigration. They have not dealt with it effectively because they have not enforced federal law. Trump was the first president to use the force of our federal laws, which are good and designed to protect us, whether it was Romania, Mexico, or whether it was Title 42, or it was stopping catch release, basic common sense things like building a wall. Those things work. They just absolutely work. And just what he's done in the first couple of days is significant in changing where Biden was taking us.
So one of the things you pointed out off camera was his executive order designating the drug cartels as terror organizations is significant.
Yes. We as states don't have much authority to stop illegal immigration, but the federal government has that authority. And by, by designating these, these cartels as terrorist organization, now the military, our military force can be used to against them rather than just using, you know, border patrol and, and leaving the states subject to the cartels, you know, crimes.
You do wonder about the power of the drug cartels. They've, you know, a lot of the weapons we have sent to Ukraine have been sold by the Ukrainian military onto the black market. That's a fact. A lot, up to half. And a lot of them have been purchased by the drug cartels you see in Mexico. Pitched battles, military engagements between the cartels and the Mexican military where they're very well armed. Are you worried about that happening in Texas?
Absolutely. I think the Biden administration has indirectly funded the cartels. They have encouraged by saying no deportations on day one of his administration. they've encouraged illegal immigration, and that's a profit center for the cartels. They make $8,000 to $12,000 a person. If you just do the numbers on 14 million, that's a lot of money. They're making billions every month. And then they can go and use that money to buy weapons from Ukraine, which we're sending that over free. So indirectly, they're part of the whole process of, one, allowing the cartels to have access to our country and allowing them to make a profit, and then to use that money to arm themselves in a significant way.
i was just that's our government well it's horrifying i mean because you know some of the weapons are surface to air weapons so you wonder like what's the threat to commercial air travel you can see things kind of starting to fall apart um is there like widespread acknowledgement of this in texas that we could have a serious problem with these cartels i think even just common people are aware of that just because of the influx
and just the increased crime associated with just everyday crime that people see as it relates to the cartels moving into our state. And that network that they built is not just in Texas. They are building that network all over the country. And they're not gonna wanna give it up. They're making too much money on drugs, sex trafficking, other crimes, and the importation of people.
Every big construction site in this country has prostitution run by the cartels, often of children. I don't see anyone doing anything about it. And it makes you wonder, like, Mexico is completely, utterly corrupt because of cartel money. Politicians, judges, journalists, all on the payroll. You see this in other Latin American countries. I mean, our... Our politicians are not that expensive.
