TRUMP, BARR AND ESPER WARN OF MEXICAN DRUG CARTEL TRAFFICKING DURING CORONAVIRUS TASK FORCE BRIEFING
BY CHRISTINA ZHAO ON 4/1/20 AT 6:31 PM EDT
President Donald Trump opened Wednesday's coronavirus White House task force briefing by issuing a warning about Mexican drug cartels. "America continues to wage all out war to defeat the virus, this horrible, horrible virus, you see how terrible it is especially if you look at the numbers from yesterday," Trump said after taking the podium. "In this time of need, I know that every American will do their patriotic duty and help us achieve a total victory." The president stood alongside Defense Secretary Mark Esper, Attorney General William Barr and several other officials, none of whom were situated six feet apart despite the federal government's social distancing guidelines.
As governments and nations focus on the coronavirus, there's a growing threat that cartels, criminals and other malign actors will try to exploit the situation for their own gain and we must not let that happen," he continued. "Today the United States is launching enhanced counternarcotics operations in the Western hemisphere to protect the American people from the deadly scourge of illegal narcotics."

We must not let the drug cartels exploit the pandemic to threaten American lives,” Trump continued. “In cooperation with the 22 partner nations, the U.S. Southern Command will increase surveillance, disruption, and seizures of drug shipments, and provide additional support for eradication efforts that are going on right now at a record pace.” “We are deploying additional Navy destroyers, combat ships, aircraft and helicopters, Coast Guard cutters and Air Force surveillance aircraft, doubling the capabilities in the region,” Trump continued. “Very importantly, our forces are fully equipped with personnel protective equipment, and we have taken additional safety measures to ensure that our troops remain healthy.”
Shameless’: CNN and MSNBC Cut Off Briefing, Rip Trump for Touting Anti-Drug Trafficking Effort During Coronavirus Update By Josh FeldmanApr 1st, 2020, 6:46 pm 38 comments
At different points of Wednesday’s White House press briefing on coronavirus, CNN and MSNBC not only cut away from the briefing but criticized President Donald Trump for today’s big focus on U.S. efforts against drug trafficking.
When CNN cut away, Wolf Blitzer observed the White House was trying to “change the focus” and John King went a little further
“It is remarkable, Wolf, and some would say shameless. This is a coronavirus task force briefing. The country is in the middle of a pandemic. Americans are afraid, they are turning into these briefings to try to get information from the White House… If the United States military and the Justice Department are doing a better job keeping cocaine and other illicit drugs from getting into the country, congratulations. You can schedule an event at the Pentagon, the Justice Department, or in the White House briefing room if you think it’s that big of a deal, but call it what it is, say we have a major announcement on the war on drugs. Instead, they walk out for the coronavirus task force meeting and the president’s trying to have a bit of a political statement here.”
Meanwhile on MSNBC, Chuck Todd cut into the briefing for similar reasons, telling viewers they would return one “we get an update on the pandemic itself.” “It’s certainly an interesting decision by the president to lead the task force with this,” Todd added. “If the president had important coronavirus news to tell us, I don’t know — I would assume it must not trump this in his mind.” You can watch above, via CNN and MSNBC.
