I want to show the American people what a typical day looks like for a law enforcement officer on the southern border. This is the result of an arrest that took place in Nuevo Loredo and this is what the sheriffs are facing. This is what our Border Patrol is facing: 40 millimeter grenade launchers. 12 of them captured. 10.000 rounds of ammunition. 40 AK47 rifles. These are carried by individuals. paramilitary commandos. who are trained to kill anybody who stops and attempts to intercept them. These are 40 millimeter grenades that are taped up with adhesive tape designed to be put on top of a warm engine. and as the glue softens. the tape comes off and the grenade explodes.
