And in a historic move yesterday, a tremendous blow to the Sinaloa cartel, my office, along with the Homeland Security, Customs and Border Patrol, FBI, DEA, we intercepted a half-a-billion dollars' worth of precursors to methamphetamines that were sent from Shanghai, China, intended to go to the Sinaloa cartel in Mexico. We intercepted on the high seas, brought these 1,300 barrels enough to fill 24 18-wheelers. We brought them into the Port of Houston. Now, unfortunately, every day, there are millions of dollars made by these cartels, and the Sinaloa, of course, one of the most brutal, dangerous cartels around. But President Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in designating these cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, is giving our office, giving the attorney general, Pam Bondi and the rest of us the ability to take down these operations sooner and to make sure that we are literally disrupting the supply chain. Now, there are all these compounds in Mexico in geographical areas controlled by the Sinaloa that were waiting for these drugs. And although it's worth a half-a-billion in Houston, once they move this stuff up to New York and other places, it's worth a lot more. And every day, the American people see the damage in this undeclared war by China in delivering these drugs that are killing Americans. We see them in funeral homes as families lose family members. And President Trump has made the decision to give us the power to do something about it. And that's just what we're doing.
