Trump shifted focus to the rising violence caused by drug cartels and illegal immigration, highlighting the tragic murder of 12-year-old Joselyn Nary in Houston. Joselyn was kidnapped, assaulted, and killed by two illegal immigrants from Venezuela, whom Trump linked to the violent Tren de Aragua gang.
“To honor Joselyn’s memory, I have signed an order renaming a 34,000-acre wildlife refuge near her home as the Joselyn Nary National Wildlife Refuge,” Trump announced.
Trump also declared war on cartels and violent gangs, officially designating Tren de Aragua, MS-13, and Mexican drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations—placing them in the same category as ISIS. “Thousands of these criminals were welcomed under the previous administration. That ends now,” he stated.
To combat these threats, Trump is launching the largest deportation operation in U.S. history, surpassing even the record set by President Dwight D. Eisenhower. He urged Congress to approve his comprehensive border security and law enforcement funding bill, promising to sign it the moment it reaches his desk.
Highlighting the sacrifices made by police officers, Trump recounted the heroism of Border Patrol Agent Roberto Ortiz, who bravely exchanged gunfire with cartel members near the Rio Grande. He also honored fallen New York officer Jonathan Diller, who was murdered by a career criminal with 21 prior arrests.
To deter violent crime, Trump signed an executive order mandating the death penalty for cop killers and called on Congress to pass a tough new anti-crime bill. “Law enforcement officers will have our full support, and criminals will know their days are numbered,” he said.
Trump then introduced 13-year-old DJ Daniel, a young cancer survivor with a dream of becoming a police officer. In a touching moment, Trump invited Secret Service Director Sean Curran to swear in DJ as an honorary Secret Service agent, fulfilling his lifelong wish.
The president also addressed concerns over radical gender ideology in schools, citing the case of January Littlejohn, whose daughter was secretly “socially transitioned” without parental consent. Trump announced an executive order banning transgender indoctrination in public schools and cutting off federal funding to institutions promoting sex-change procedures for minors.
“Every child is perfect exactly as God made them,” he declared, calling on Congress to permanently ban gender transitions for minors.
Trump made a bold declaration about the Panama Canal, vowing to bring it back under American control. He reminded the nation that 38,000 American workers died building it and criticized past administrations for giving it away.
In a surprise revelation, Trump said Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky had agreed to negotiate peace under his leadership, while Russia also signaled readiness for talks. “Wouldn’t that be beautiful?” he remarked, emphasizing his commitment to swiftly ending the war.
Additionally, Trump took credit for securing the release of American history teacher Mark Fogel from Russian captivity, highlighting his direct intervention.
