2025 – Public Affairs Crackdown Begins
The Kristi Noem team is out kicking ass:
March 20, 2025
Public Affairs efforts commence – the word goes out.
Cartels have been placed on notice.
Secretary of Homeland Security delivers no nonsense statements in the March 20, 2025 video posted below.
Cartels have been designated as terrorists.
Homeland Security Vision of Success
Promotional events crafted and controlled by public affairs professionals, staged with major drug hauls, patrol boats, helicopters, etc.
The big campaign features top level team leaders thanking each other.
Well done.
Announcing the number of DOD ground units, US Navy and US Coast Guard vessels sent towards the US/Mexico border demonstrates a sense of commitment.

Pam Bondi thanks the US Coast Guard for preventing cartel product from arriving in the US:
April 9, 2025 – Public Affairs On The Job Again:
“…all the drugs off the streets…”
High levels of confidence in this businesslike event. Unfortunately, questions from the press were not picked up in the audio below.
The claim:
At 5:00 in the video above, the FBI director clams that various federal agencies will “…get all the drugs off the streets…”
Away From The Kristi Noem Team
The status of cartel product inside the US seems to be unchanged.
Surely, real newspeople will let us know when Puget Sound area drug addicts have any difficulty in finding their cartel product of choice.
Real newspeople will let us know when local health departments see a reduced need to hand out Naloxone.
Did cartels respond to Kristi Noem’s March 20, 2025 public affairs event by moving more product into local communities?
Newspeople play along by not asking questions.
Old Drug War – Cartels Respond & Move More Product Into The US
Has General Milley’s Operation Macho Swagger reduced access to cartel product anywhere in the US?
When is the last time DOD/DHS was able to create any shortage of cartel product in the Puget Sound area?
Has there been enough time for newspeople to ask questions?
Newspeople remain silent.
April 1, 2020 C-SPAN
WWII costume reminds us of a time before decades of undeclared/unwon wars stacked up.
The Department of Defense track record goes back to 1949.
Cartels move product into all 50 states:
DEA High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas:
“…HIDTA-designated counties are located in 50 states…”
Welcome Home Troops. Thanks for doing time/risking your ass in Iraq and Afghanistan, working to keep a post 911 USA safe & secure.
Don’t worry-The Super Bowl and public affairs will be safe:

A symbol of mixed messages from various levels of government Re: cartel product inside the US.
If you are on the Kristi Noem team, you are out kicking ass.
If you are part of a local narcotics task force, you are advertising the latest big drug bust after cartel product is able to move past the jurisdiction of federal agents at borders, border crossings and ports of entry and a barrier of DOD ground units, US Navy and US Coast Guard vessels prior to arriving in the Puget Sound area.
If you are part of a local health dept. you are handing out Naloxone as always, to deal with the stuff that doesn’t get reported in the big local drug bust.
Newspeople play along by not asking questions.
