Former President Donald Trump is launching a full-scale war on what he calls an “Axis of Evil” linking China and Mexican drug cartels. Sources tell GLOBE Magazine that Trump is determined to shut down a dangerous alliance supplying massive quantities of deadly drugs to the United States.
Intelligence experts claim Chinese operatives are sending synthetic drug chemicals to Mexico’s notorious Sinaloa Cartel. These chemicals are reportedly used to manufacture fentanyl and methamphetamine, substances that are then funneled into American communities.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 200,000 Americans have died from drug overdoses since 2023. A Washington D.C. insider says most victims are young men who would otherwise be training to defend the country.
“These deaths are strategic,” he said. “We’re losing tens of thousands of our most capable young men in what looks like a targeted attack.”
Fentanyl crisis triggers military-style response
In response, Trump has activated military drones and CIA surveillance aircraft over the U.S.-Mexico border. Earlier this year, sources said he proposed sending troops into Mexico to strike cartel labs, though the plan was blocked diplomatically.
Still, Trump declared in March that the cartels are waging war on America—and now America must fight back. His team believes the Sinaloa Cartel is being supported by the Chinese Communist Party to destabilize the U.S.
Recent seizures of precursor drug chemicals, traced back to China, have increased concerns. In late May, U.S. border agents intercepted 50,000 kilos of chemical substances at the Port of Long Beach. Similar busts in Houston earlier this year revealed more chemicals headed for the Sinaloa Cartel.
Experts warn of deeper China agend
A former senior Drug Enforcement Administration official who helped bring down Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán says this partnership poses an unprecedented threat.
He explained that the China-cartel alliance is draining U.S. resources, damaging society, and increasing addiction and death. The Chinese regime is fully aware of the chaos it is creating in its biggest global rival, he added.
But the threat may not stop with narcotics. U.S. officials recently arrested two Chinese nationals suspected of attempting to smuggle a dangerous pathogen into the country. The men allegedly conspired to import Fusarium graminearum, a fungus that could destroy American crops and livestock.
One of the suspects, a former University of Michigan researcher, is now in custody. Authorities believe this may be part of a broader agro-terrorism plot.
Crackdown on Chinese student visas
In a bold move, sources say Trump wants to suspend all Chinese student visas while officials conduct in-depth background checks. The State Department plans to vet students in sensitive research areas for potential Communist Party ties.
Retired Army Maj. Gen. Paul E. Vallely believes the U.S. must act decisively. He told GLOBE Magazine that direct action may be necessary if diplomatic efforts fail.
“If we’re going to win this battle, we need to take the fight to them,” Vallely said.
