It's an interesting and new sight to see US military forces actually doing military things, on US soil. Arranging their bases, using their high-tech vehicles, carrying arms and running.
Trump talked about taking down the cartels just as the US did with ISIS. In both cases (Taliban and original cartels), causing problems for the original version further caused splintering and reforming and some of the splinters were more violent. Drug demand hasn't changed, and ideological change combined with economic/material availability differences hasn't changed.
US attempted to fly Colombian illegal migrants back to Colombia aboard a US military jet, but Petro refused the jet and it had to return to the US. Petro said he'd allow or welcome any who came on a commercial flight, reportedly. There was a question of dignity in treatment. Apparently, Brazil took offense to Brazilians being flown back handcuffed or something, in other headlines.
