The video says (transcribed automatically):
The Coast Guard started Operation Border Trident, which is our maritime operation down here in Southern California, to stop cartel traffic. Last year, since it started, we've seen about a 60 % decrease in attempts to cross the border illegally, and drug numbers have gone down equally about the same. So there's definitely been a noticeable difference between previous years and the last year and a half -ish. I mean, it's an incredible thing to see you guys. how much of this, you know, is like, people say, oh, you're stopping people at the border. How much of this is like, people say, oh, you're stopping people. Like, how risky is this with your men out there? Great, great question. So there's significant risk in what we do. Most of the events occur at night. There's a marine layer or fog that comes in. So there's the dangers of that, normal sea life dangers in the sense of the sea state and the waves and the weather. And then there's fast boats moving at night that don't want to stop, which also adds. significant risk. The other point I'd like to make is in the sense of the cartels who are moving and smuggling all these things into our country, they don't care about the people that they're transporting. They're willing to hurt them or even allow them to die in their transit north.
