Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who just concluded a tour of the U.S. -Mexico border, didn't mince words Tuesday when addressing border patrol agents in Nogales, Arizona.
Sessions was speaking first of transnational gangs like MS-13 and global cartels.
"When we talk about [the] cartels, what do we mean?" Depravity and violence are their calling cards, including brutal machete attacks and beheadings.
No matter how much the Trump regime tries to spin the sunshiny smiles of Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, it is Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III, Steve Bannon, and Stephen Miller who represent what this administration really is at its core: white nationalism.
"It is here, on this sliver of land, where we first take our stand against this filth", Sessions said, according to a copy of his speech from the Justice Department.
Elbit Americas is contracted by the USA custom and border protection to deploy a combination of technology from integrated fixed towers to sensors, radars and cameras.
Sessions laid out several policy priorities in a memo to all federal prosecutors, titled "Renewed Commitment to Criminal Immigration Enforcement".

In the run-up to the 2016 presidential election, Trump described migrants as "rapists" as part of efforts to appeal to Republican voters.
In a memo released on Tuesday, the attorney general called for an increase in the penalties for undocumented immigrants who attempt to re-enter the U.S. "We do have that challenge, we want people to understand that they are not entitled to enter unlawfully". "This is the Trump era", said Sessions, according to prepared remarks released by DOJ.
Fourth: where possible, prosecutors are directed to charge criminal aliens with document fraud and aggravated identity theft - the latter carrying a two-year mandatory minimum sentence.
Sessions, speaking in Nogales, Ariz., with customs and border protection officials, said those who unlawfully enter the country twice will be charged with a felony, instead of a misdemeanor. Even as it plans to cut the Justice Department's budget by more than $1 billion, the Trump administration wants hundreds of millions of dollars to hire 60 federal prosecutors and 40 deputy US marshals to focus on border cases. "This is the Trump era". To support this mission, we have already surged 25 immigration judges to detention centers along the border. "We want everyone to comply with the law", Sessions said. Those judges, though, handle deportation proceedings - not criminal cases.
Sessions said he has also put in place a new hiring program so judges will get placed faster than the 18 to 24 months it typically takes. The executive order on border security emphasizes urgency to achieve complete operational control of the southern border.
"Why are we doing this?" the former USA senator said.
