    Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) said during an interview on Sunday that when he approached President Joe Biden about using the U.S. military to take out Mexican drug cartels, the president rebuffed him and said that it was a "bad idea."

    Kennedy made the remarks on "Fox News Sunday" with host Shannon Bream when discussing former Attorney General William Barr's recent op-ed in The Wall Street Journal urging the Biden administration to use the military against the cartels.

    "Look, the cartels, we know who they are," Kennedy said. "They are killing Americans on both sides of the border. And the fact is that the American military could partner with the Mexican military and the Mexican police, and we could wipe out the cartels."

    "But President Lopez Obrador in Mexico refuses to do that. And when Senator [Lindsey] Graham and I talked about the issue this year, this week rather, President Biden said it's a bad idea. And the truth is that President Biden believes in open borders, but the cartels don't seem to bother him. And President Lopez Obrador can answer for himself, but I don't get why he would turn down American help with killing cartels that are killing our people."

Considering the renewed and unequalled dishonesty in elected politicians, at all levels of governing, and their associative nefarious bureaucrats doing their corrupt bidding: What is your opinion of YOUR government, and what do you intend to do about it?

Today's overall government is just fine, and I will continue to vote for politicians that make promises to suit my individual needs.

Today's overall government is poor, but I will continue to endeavor to learn what is true from the the most honest of media, and pick those representatives that best represent what is good and decent.

I spend quite a bit of time on Eastern NC NOW; so ... I am having a far easier time separating the proverbial "wheat from the chaff" in finding honorable citizens to support.

I want all the lying cheating politicians voted OUT OF OFFICE. We need more like Senator John Kennedy.

The country is in the gutter because of Joseph Biden. The worst next to Obama.

I hope we, as a people who care about what was once beautiful within our boundaries, will vote our heads and not just a political party.

President Obrador doesn't want our assistance because he's getting fat off of the Cartels. They run him.

Biden doesn't want to go after the Cartels for the same reason.
