1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:04,560
Speaker 1: If they express their gratitude towards the United States government

2
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 1: on towards President Trump for the pressure he's outing against Maluro,

3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: They're going to face horrible consequences. That's why you don't

4
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 1: really see a lot of expressions coming out of Venezuela.

5
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 1: But you know, I have people there.

6
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:16,800
Speaker 2: I've talked to them. They are copying.

7
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:21,119
Speaker 3: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson.

8
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,119
Speaker 4: Good Tuesday morning. It is nice to have you with

9
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 4: us after the Labor Day weekend into all American workers.

10
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 4: Thank you for what you do. We've got one big

11
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 4: story this morning, and it involves Donald Trump going after

12
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 4: cartels who've been designated as terrorist organizations in a way

13
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 4: we haven't seen in my lifetime. The United States has

14
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:46,520
Speaker 4: significantly ramped up its military presence in the Southern Caribbean,

15
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,559
Speaker 4: and now there are seven to eight warships, including a

16
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 4: nuclear powered submarine, on top of thousands of US military personnel.

17
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 4: So what is this all about. I'm going to explain

18
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 4: it to you. Wise Maduro terrified after we've up the

19
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 4: bounty on him as a narco terrorist. But first I

20
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 4: want to talk to you about my friends over at

21
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 4: Patriot Mobile. You've got a lot of choices for cell

22
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 4: phone service, with new ones popping up all the time.

23
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 4: But if you want to make a difference and you

24
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 4: want to stop giving your money to liberal companies, well,

25
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 4: one way you can do that is by getting rid

26
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 4: of Liberal Mobile you probably have right now. That is

27
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 4: where hundreds of thousands of Americans are now coming together

28
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 4: and have made Patriot Mobile what they are today. They've

29
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 4: been in service now for thirteen years, and right now

30
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 4: is the best time ever to switch because it's never

31
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 4: been easier. Now, before I tell you about that, I

32
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 4: want you to know why switching is so important. Because

33
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 4: every time you make a call, every time you send

34
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 4: a text, and every time that you pay your bill,

35
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 4: you're actually standing up for the values you believe in

36
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 4: your First and your Second Amendment rights, the rights of

37
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 4: unborn children, and you stand with our military, are veterans,

38
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 4: our wounded warriors, and our fallen soldier families. Because Patriot

39
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 4: Mobile takes about five percent of your bill every month

40
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 4: at no extra cost to you, and they give it

41
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 4: back to these organizations that fight for our values. Now,

42
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,239
Speaker 4: let's talk about switching. It has never been easier. You

43
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 4: can keep your same number, keep your same phone, or upgrade.

44
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 4: Patriot Mobile's got a one hundred percent US based customer

45
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,239
Speaker 4: service team and literally they can now with technology get

46
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 4: you activated in minutes from the comforty your home or

47
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 4: your office. You're second a contract or owe money on

48
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 4: your phones, no worries. Patriot Mobile has a contract buyout program.

49
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 4: And this is how we win, folks by aligning our

50
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 4: spending with our values. Every dollar we spend matters. Now,

51
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 4: let me also give you a free month of service.

Speaker 4: and it starts right now.

61
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 3: Story number one.

62
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 4: President Donald Trump made it very clear when he was

63
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 4: running for president and backing it up now that if

64
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 4: you are in the drug trade, he considers you a

65
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 4: dangerous individual that is a member of a terrorist organization,

66
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 4: and he's not gonna allow Americans to die at the

67
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 4: hands of fetnel and other drugs that have been pouring

68
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 4: into this country. Now, lots of those drugs have been

69
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 4: stopped because we have secured the border, but the President

70
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 4: says that's not enough. And now we're seeing what is

71
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 4: next on the present's agenda. The United States has significantly

72
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 4: ramped up its military presence in the Southern Caribbean. We

73
00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 4: are now learning this started in late August and now

74
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 4: into September, as the US Navy has deployed around seven

75
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 4: to eight warships, including very large cruisers, amphibious assault vessels,

76
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 4: and at least one nuclear powered submarine. That's not all.

77
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 4: More than four thousand US personnel, including about twenty two

78
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 4: hundred Marines, are now operating in the area. This build

79
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 4: up includes surveillance aircraft and even a US spy plane.

80
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 4: We're being told the stated objective is actually very clear

81
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 4: combat drug cartels, and the Trump administration has framed this

82
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 4: deployment as part of a broader campaign against Latin American

83
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 4: drug trafficking and criminal networks. Officials have labeled Venezuelan President

84
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 4: Maduro as a narco trafficker, boosting the reward for his

85
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 4: capture now to fifty million dollars, and designating his alleged

86
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:04,159
Speaker 4: cartel of the SUNS a terrorist organization. Merdua's reaction has

87
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 4: been fierce. He's armed and mobilized and defiant President Maduro

88
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 4: taking strong countermeasures, deploying troops along the coast and Columbia border.

89
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 4: He's also called on citizens to join civilian militias and

90
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 4: warrened he would quote constitutionally declare republic in arms if

91
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 4: the US forces attack. Maduro and other Venezuelan officials are

92
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 4: now accusing the US of using anti drug rhetoric as

93
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 4: a pretext for regime change and gunboat diplomacy. Here's more

94
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 4: about the move from Fox News.

95
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 5: Well, the US is deploying destroyers and thousands of marines

96
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 5: towards Venezuela as President Trump looks to crack down on

97
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 5: curtels and the Maduda regime. They could reportedly reach the

98
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 5: country's coast as soon as tomorrow. Here to discuss is

99
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:58,280
Speaker 5: dissident Project speaker and an immigrant from Venezuela Jorgue Galicia,

100
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 5: along with trigger U political commentator and Venezuelan political refugee

101
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 5: Franklin Carmargo. So great to have you both on. I'm

102
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 5: going to start with you, coote Kea. What is the

103
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 5: reaction to Venezuelan's I know you guys are in close

104
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 5: contact with people who are living there right now. Over

105
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 5: seventy eighty percent of the country voted for the opposition

106
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 5: party against Madudo. How are they feeling in this moment

107
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 5: knowing that these destroyers are coming so close to the

108
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:27,559
Speaker 5: Venezuelan coast.

109
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: Well, first of all, Rachel, thank you for having me again.

110
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: I think how many people in Venezuela are extremely optimistic.

111
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: They cannot really be loud about it because they're facing

112
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:38,799
Speaker 1: a terrible criminal regime.

113
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 6: Yeah.

114
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 5: I spoke to one of the opposition activists who was

115
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 5: holed up in that embassy for over a year before

116
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 5: she was rescued, and I asked her and she said,

117
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 5: it's a silent euphoria. And so while they're quietly celebrating

118
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 5: what President Trump is doing right now in Venezuelan for

119
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:05,359
Speaker 5: the whole Western hemisphere. Franklin, meanwhile, Venezuelans who are living

120
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 5: abroad are putting out the most remarkable TikTok Instagram videos

121
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 5: I've ever seen. You're seeing the destroyers coming into the

122
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 5: ocean and the planes coming overhead and YMCA playing, and

123
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 5: just the euphoria from the dissident community who's abroad is

124
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 5: so palpable and thankful to the administration. Give us more

125
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 5: context to that.

126
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 2: Yes, the Venezuelan people recognizes that the Truma administration is

127
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 2: probably one of the biggest allies that freedom fighters Venezuela

128
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 2: freedom fighters have had over the last twenty five years.

129
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 2: Is someone who has recognized that Maduro is not just

130
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 2: a threat to South America. It's not just a threat

131
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 2: to Venezuelans, but it's also a threat to the American people.

132
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 6: And I think this is the most important thing to

133
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 6: mention right now.

134
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 2: When we talk about Nicolas Maduru, when we talk about

135
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 2: the Venezuelan regime, we're not just talking about a government

136
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 2: that we dislike or a dictatorship, a soft dictatorship. We're

137
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 2: talking about narco state government that produced over twenty five

138
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 2: percent of.

139
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 6: The entire cocaine that is produced in the entire world.

140
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 2: It's also a regime that sent Trendagua, the same criminal

141
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 2: organization that killed for example, Lake in Riley, or that

142
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 2: killed Joseline Nongarai. So there is a need for the

143
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 2: American people, for the well being of the.

144
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 6: American people in the Western hemisphere, to.

145
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 2: Have a regime changed to stop to stop these cartoons.

146
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,719
Speaker 2: But Venezuela's recognized that Trump is an ally that the

147
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 2: US government is probably the biggest hope that.

148
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 6: We currently have.

149
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 4: Now you hear the stats there, I mean, it's very

150
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,959
Speaker 4: clear that not only is this in essence a failed state,

151
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 4: it's a state where the people rose up against Maduro

152
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 4: and he just coined the power. Anyway, and now we

153
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 4: know that he is nothing but a narco terrorist. It

154
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 4: is a terrorist organization that he's a part of, and

155
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 4: his money is coming directly from theine that he is

156
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 4: delivering to the world. Yet Venezuela's president is now accusing

157
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 4: the United States of seeking regime change in his country.

158
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 4: And the military deployment that has happened now it was

159
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 4: authorized by President Trump in a simple effort to disrupt

160
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 4: drug cartel activity. It's part of the White Houses they

161
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 4: described it his broader border policy. Maduro said the build

162
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 4: up is an intervention in his quote country's affairs, saying

163
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 4: this to the people, they are seeking regime change through

164
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 4: military threat, and that's where he also wants the rest

165
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 4: of the world to believe. Maduro added, quote, Venezuela is

166
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 4: confronting the biggest threat that has ever seen on our

167
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 4: continent in the last one hundred years, and saying a

168
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 4: situation like this has never been seen. Maduro said Venezuela

169
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 4: won't bow to threats and that it was super prepared.

170
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 4: Now the Trump administration is accused again Maduau of engaging

171
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 4: in drug trafficking, going so far as to announce that

172
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 4: fifty million dollar reward for information leading to his arrest

173
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 4: and his conviction. The fifty million dollars that is not

174
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 4: a little amount of money when it comes to how

175
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 4: much we're willing to pay as a nation. This is

176
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 4: one of the biggest rewards we've ever had. Take a

177
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 4: listen to this from Fox as well.

178
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: People have wanted to do this for years.

179
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 7: President Trump putting war back in the War on drugs,

180
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 7: designating eight drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.

181
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 8: It allows us to now target what they're operating and

182
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 8: to use other elements of American power, intelligence agencies, the

183
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 8: Department of Defense, whatever to target these groups. If we

184
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 8: have an opportunity to do it. We have to start

185
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 8: treating them as armed terrorist organizations, not simply drug dealing organizations.

186
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 7: That changes the battlefield. Cartel members become enemy combatants and

187
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 7: allow the use of military assets. The question is how

188
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 7: the Navy intercepting ships carrying narcotics special operations targeting cartel

189
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 7: leaders or drone strikes on drug labs in Mexico.

190
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 4: Mexico probably doesn't want that, but we have to do

191
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 4: what's right.

192
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 7: Publicly, President Claudia Scheinbaum says Mexico will cooperate, but claims

193
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 7: the US plans no boots on the ground, nothing in it.

194
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 6: It has nothing to do with Mexican territory.

195
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,439
Speaker 1: It has to do with their country.

196
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,559
Speaker 3: It does not involve our territory.

197
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 7: Yet, most cocaine goes through Mexico, and it produces most

198
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 7: of the FETE and all that killed more than two

199
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 7: hundred and sixty five thousand Americans during President Biden's term.

200
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: These are armed organizations that have their own militaries.

201
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 2: I absolutely believe that we need to take action.

202
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 6: It's what type of action are we going to take.

203
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 7: But just because you don't hear about an operation doesn't

204
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 7: mean it didn't happen. Now, one of the name cartels

205
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 7: is the Venezuelan gang Trende a Agua. Last week, the

206
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 7: US slept a fifty million dollar bounty. I'm President Nicholas Maduro,

207
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 7: accusing him of using it to help traffic narcotics into

208
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 7: the US.

209
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 4: Let's just stop there for a second and also just

210
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 4: recognize something that was said there. Under the Biden administration,

211
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 4: more than a quarter million Americans died from fetnyl, an

212
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 4: overdose from fetnyl. You think about that number, and then

213
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 4: you think about these cartels. They've engaged in historic violence

214
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 4: and tear throughout our hemisphere and around the globe. They

215
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 4: have destabilized the economies and internal security of countries while

216
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 4: also flooding the United States with deadly drugs, violent criminals,

217
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,119
Speaker 4: and vicious gangs. That is what the Chief Pentagon spokesman,

218
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 4: Sean Parnell said during a news conference this week. He

219
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 4: also said this it requires a whole of government effort,

220
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,959
Speaker 4: and through coordination with regional partners, the Department of Defense

221
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 4: will undoubtedly play an important role in meeting the Presence

222
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 4: objective to eliminate the ability of these cartels to threaten

223
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:47,439
Speaker 4: the territory, safety, and the security of the United States

224
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 4: and its people. As a matter of security and policy,

225
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 4: we do not speculate on future operations now. What is

226
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 4: very clear is the Presence saying I'm not waiting around

227
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 4: for nations to act. I'm going to act now because

228
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,079
Speaker 4: it's important that we protect and defend America's home win

229
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 4: and make sure that while he's present, another quarter million

230
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 4: Americans don't lose their lives to fetnal overdoses, and that

231
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 4: doesn't count all of those that are killed by cartel

232
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 4: members and the violent gangs that are in America as well.
