Texas DPS Drone Captures Footage Of Heavily Armed Cartel Near Rio Grande (VIDEO)

Texas Department of Public Safety drones picked up footage of heavily armed cartel members near the Rio Grande on Thursday.

This from thegatewaypundit.com.

The theory is that this is being done intentionally by cartel members to intimidate law enforcement.

Lieutenant Olivarez:

This type of intimidation tactic is commonly used to disrupt law enforcement operations.

DPS will maintain a proactive posture & deny illicit transnational criminal activity near the Texas-Mexico border.

The Mexican Cartels know they can get away with such tactics as a result of the malpractice of the Obiden Regime. Their continual violations of oaths of office and intentional neglect of the southern border has given cartels more confidence to intimidate law enforcement.

Since the Federal Government cares nothing of border security, Texas DPS has to fill in the gap in order to protect their border towns.

The Gateway Pundit has been covering the border consistently since the Obiden Regime was installed in January of 2021.

In addition to Cartel problems, numerous illegal aliens continue to pour into our country. On Wednesday, two illegals from Venezuela violently assaulted a National Guardsmen.

A woman grabbed the soldier around the neck, trying to push him down, while a male grabbed his leg, causing him to fall into razor wire. Both arrested.

The message these illegals are getting is ‘Come to the U.S. and you will be let in.’

The illegals know the border laws are not being enforced. What is even more alarming is that they are assaulting our great soldiers because they are becoming more comfortable with lawlessness.

According to Border Report:

The assault was at Gate 36, which is commonplace at the border where numerous illegals attempt to enter the U.S.

The illegals were identified as Karla Dividay Matar Jaimes, 38, and Yoel Jesus Guerra Urdaneta, 33. According to Texas DPS, they were both charged with assault.

Further, members of the Texas National Guard have been laying razor wire on the border with Mexico, as most know. But this week, they were seen busily securing a different “Mexican” border.

Photos published by El Paso’s KFOX-TV show National Guard soldiers erecting razor-wire barriers in West Texas near the state’s border with New Mexico. The barriers are going up close to the city of Sunland Park, New Mexico.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott posted on X on Monday:

Migrants are entering New Mexico illegally then crossing into Texas. We are stopping it.

The Sante Fe New Mexican reported in September that Sunland Park has recently become a “gateway” for illegal immigrants. As Texas fortifies its border, it stands to reason that illegals have begun seeking out easier paths into the country.

If states were able to work together, the task at hand could be accomplished more efficiently. But such is not the case.

When the New Mexican reached out to communist/globalist Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham about border security, her press secretary said it’s not her job.

She stated the state assists:

[T]he federal government with their needs, and at this time they have not reached out.

As we have always said, we have called on Congress to pass comprehensive immigration reform and we stand ready to assist Border Security if they request it.

That’s not good enough for Abbott.

Because the Obiden Regime refuses to secure the wide-open border and get illegal immigration in check, the Texas governor is taking matters into his own hands.

Final thoughts: The breakdown in law enforcement has led to all forms of criminality in America. This is Obama’s Transformation of America that Conservatism MUST bring to a stop.
