A Homeland Security Task Force (HSTF) established by President Trump on the day of his inauguration to tackle a pandemic of transnational organized crime created by the Biden administration’s “disgraceful” open border policies has made thousands of arrests in recent weeks and seized over 1,000 illegal firearms, 91 tons of drugs and $3 million in currency. The special HSTF teams combine agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), a premier federal law enforcement agency within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), as well as officers from other federal, local and state agencies to crackdown on an unprecedented wave of violent crimes committed by foreign drug cartels, gangs and other transnational criminal organizations (TCO). This includes sophisticated human and drug trafficking operations nationwide that often involve minors.
