DeSantis Says Border Authorities Should Use ‘Deadly Force’ Against Drug Smugglers, ‘Drop’ Cartel Members

Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said southern border authorities should be able to use lethal force against drug smugglers cutting through the wall during a press conference in Eagle Pass, Texas, on Monday.

DeSantis, a 2024 GOP presidential contender, visited the southern border, where he spoke with local residents and law enforcement dealing with drug smuggling and a surge of illegal immigration, to reveal his security plan he would implement should he be elected president. During his visit, DeSantis revealed that border authorities should “drop” members of the cartels to stop drug smuggling.

“We will use all levers at our disposal to win the fight. If somebody is breaking through the border wall, which they are doing in other parts, demonstrating hostile or hostile action, you have to be able to meet that with the appropriate use of force,” DeSantis said.
