Marjorie Taylor Greene Says She’s Drafting ‘Declaration of War’ Against Mexican Cartels

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., on Thursday said she is drafting a "Declaration of War" against Mexican drug cartels.

"I’m announcing on your show, that I would like to get Washington to realize who our real enemy is to the American people, who’s responsible for the 300 Americans dying every single day dying from fentanyl, who’s responsible for a multi-billion dollar human trafficking and drug trafficking industry that directly affects the United States of America," the GOP lawmaker said during an appearance on The Charlie Kirk Show podcast. "And that is the Mexican cartels; not the Mexican government, not the Mexican people. So, I am currently drafting a Declaration of War against the Mexican cartels."

Greene's comments came as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited D.C. on Thursday to request more financial aid as the country's war with Russia continues. The lawmaker said that because of the focus on Ukraine, Washington, D.C., "is completely ignoring the invasion happening at our border."

"There has been over 10,000 people invade [sic] Eagle Pass in the last 24 hours. This is unprecedented. Our country is under attack, and who is leading the attack, Charlie? It's the Mexican cartels," Greene said to Kirk.

Congress has not approved a war declaration since World War II and there are currently no congressional provisions to declare war on something that is not a country. The details of her supposed declaration are not yet clear.

Kirk chimed in calling it "nauseating" that Greene has to serve with Republicans who seem "infatuated" with Zelenskyy.

"They couldn’t care less that yesterday ... thousands and thousands of fighting-age young men — not DNA tested, not background checked, we don’t know who these people are — just waltzing right into America to invade the country," he said.

The Biden Administration also announced on Thursday that they will be sending 800 more troops to support those already at the border dealing with the influx of migrants crossing over.
