Migrant Crisis: Suspected Cartel members taunt Texas National Guard
Texas which is on the frontlines against the surging migrant crisis is now being targeted openly by Cartel members.
The vast human and drug smuggling network that spans across Central and Latin America is controlled by different Cartels.
Up till now, the Cartel members never exposed themselves as groups. There was only a coyote leading a string of migrants. That has changed as suspected Cartel members are now seen wielding AK-47 assault rifles as the Texas National Guard watches.
House and Senate Republicans have demanded transparency from the Biden Administration. Officials say the suspected Cartel members are seen wearing tactical vests while standing in or near the Rio Grande river, according to Fox News.
This news comes just days after border patrol arrested illegal immigrants with a criminal past. Some being sex offenders, while others were affiliated with gangs like MS-13.

In order to get their people and/or drugs into the United States, the Cartels exploit migrants or the crisis created by them.
Apart from drug smuggling, Cartel members also pretend to be innocent migrants in order to get through and be part of the Cartel-run gangs in major US cities.

Foreigners were promised to be accepted into the US if President Biden was elected. They have since listened to those promises even after being told not to come as the crisis deepened.
Cartels too had a massive opportunity to further expand their networks. With such surges, hundreds if not thousands of former/current Cartel members could/are able to sneak through.
The problem is trusting those crossing illegally, how do we trust who’s innocent and who’s not? Without proper documentation we can never know.
That is why there’s a system is in place, establishing our collective safety, and needs to be strengthened further to avoid illegal breaches.
If one criminal sneaks through with the migrants, he/she can wreak havoc in the local communities, and even for other migrants.
Everyone at the border says they are innocent, also claiming the Cartels would kill them if they go back. Why would the Cartels kill people they have no business or past with?
Cartels tell migrants (who take loans, or pay them) to avoid carrying documentation as their chances to be caught and later released on US soil would increase.
The US cannot expel migrants into countries they come through without evidence of them being citizens of that country or having a valid visa.
The Cartels have always exploited Catch and Release (which is now back), to allow their affiliated members or groups get through and into the US.
Cartel members, whether current or former are masters in the art of deception. They don’t care what happens to the migrants.
All they care about is their lives, rule and profit because of the unfortunate fact that they grow up in areas filled with crime and get little to no education.
Texas is now anticipating another swarm of migrants which might be 4 times bigger than the last one. This time over 50,000 Haitians are expected to arrive.
The number does not include other “hopefuls” or camouflaged Cartel members.
Gov. Greg Abbott’s government is criticizing Biden’s “Open Border Policy” that is behind the surges since the 2020 election.
Security is being increased along the border in Texas, but no amount of security can protect the local communities until a solid barrier is constructed throughout the border.
The Biden Administration is creating roadblocks for the construction of such a barrier, or the completion of the border wall.
The illegals cannot get jobs inside the US until they are given legal status, so their only options are to stay in camps financed by the redirected funds meant for the local communities housing them.
Apart from that, those who abscond and never appear for their hearings find work in rare places that want cheap labor.
Many with no criminal background end up doing criminal activities, and those with a criminal past continue on doing what they had always done.
Gangs established by illegal immigrants inside the US are always looking for new members. Their best resource is the string of young migrants coming in through the Southern border.
The gangs have them “earn” the membership, most requirements have them behead a target or bounty apart from the oath and tattoos.
The migrant crisis needs to come to an end, and we need a bolstered system that lets the deserving inside and roots out the criminals.
By further reinforcing the system already in place, we will not only protect ourselves but also those wanting to come.
We cannot accept illegal entries because we can never know who they are. Some would obviously be innocent, but some would obviously be criminals.
To prove who is innocent and who is not, we need the system that’s always been there.
Even the Biden Administration feels the illegal migrants need to stop coming, but the pressure of their unrealistic promises and from the spoiled hijackers of the Democratic Party is restricting them from doing the right thing.
