FIRST ON FOX: Two Republican lawmakers introduced a joint resolution to give President Biden the military authority to combat transnational cartels smuggling fentanyl into the U.S.
Reps. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, and Michael Waltz, R-Fla., introduced a joint resolution authorizing Biden to use military force to combat the cartels pumping fentanyl and other similar, dangerous substances across the border.
Crenshaw, the architect of the bill last Congress, told Fox News Digital that the cartels "are responsible for about 360,000 homicides this year in Mexico" and that they are "militaristic in nature," mirroring "an all-out civil war" in many cases.
