FBI Director Kash Patel @FBIDirectorKash - The FBI is putting ALL cartels on notice.
We’re not playing defense - we’re eliminating drug and cartel trafficking at the source.
With Los Choneros and Los Lobos now designated as Foreign Terrorist Organizations, their drug money pipelines are drying up.
If you poison our communities, the @FBI will find you, and we will end your criminal empire.
America will lead, and the cartels will fall.

Big news coming out today in the FBI’s efforts to rid the U.S. of Foreign Terrorist Organizations…
Two new groups now fall under the FTO designation—Los Choneros and Los Lobos. Both are criminal organizations based in Ecuador that are responsible for significant drug and firearms trafficking and acts of extreme violence.
The @FBI, along with our partners within the newly established Homeland Security Task Force, played a crucial role in helping get this designation by providing critical intelligence to support. You may remember, the leader of the Los Choneros, José Adolfo “Fito” Macías Villamar, was extradited to Brooklyn in July to face international drug and gun charges. These groups being added to this designation reinforces our commitment to disrupting terrorist networks and protecting our nation.
This will allow the FBI and our partners to continue to strike at violent groups that exploit the drug trade to fund operations and push dangerous drugs into the American communities. We WILL cut off their resources and reduce their ability to harm people both here at home and abroad.
God bless America, and all those who defend Her.

Fr. Chris Vorderbruggen @FatherChrisVor1 - 1/15 The Cross is not only wood on Calvary. It is written into the very fabric of creation. Joseph Ratzinger, before he became Pope Benedict XVI, called it the cosmic mystery of the Cross. Let us walk together into this mystery.

Fr. Joseph Krupp @Joeinblack - Every time I give last rites to a World War II Vet, I assume it’s going to be my last time doing so.
When I was a young priest, it was much more common but obviously these men are few in number.
Particularly for men who fought in the Pacific campaign, a lot comes to the forefront as death approaches.
Sometimes, they see the Japanese in the room with them sometimes they don’t.
But they all remember the things they had to do.
They all remember the things they saw.
They spent years of their young lives in hell, and then came home and went back to work, raising families, going to church and tucking the horror into the deepest part of their heart.
As they approach death, the pain of it all explodes into their consciousness; it will not be denied anymore.
I pray with them, I read them scripture.
I try to soothe them and remind them they didn’t ask to do or see the things they did and saw.
I remind them that they did it to save the world.
I remind them that their wives love them, their children honor them and their grandchildren are alive because of them.
I remind them that Jesus was there, that he is there and that he loves them with a purity of focus they can’t understand.
War is a horror that we are all too willing to engage in.
The effects of it stay with the men and women who fought until the day Our God heals it in heaven.
Pray for those who fought for us. Pray for those who saw and did unspeakable things because we made them do it.
Pray for all combat veterans who are dying today.
