Heavily Armed Cartel, Taunting US Soldier along the Border

MISSION, Texas — Mexican cartel members dressed in military-like outfits and toting AK-47 rifles have been taunting U.S. soldiers assigned to the southern border, an unprecedented act of aggression, Texas authorities say.

“What's been happening actually this past week is we see a group of individuals that are coming across — they're smuggling people — but what they're doing is they come across the river into the U.S. and smuggle people, they go back into Mexico, and they get their weapons,” Texas Department of Public Safety spokesman Lt. Christopher Olivarez said during an interview Wednesday.

“These are assault rifles, OK, AK-47s. They'll stand in the middle of the river, and then they’re brandishing their weapons and taunting the National Guard, who's across on the U.S. side,” Olivarez said.

Such threats did not occur before this week. Brandon Judd, the Border Patrol union's national president, said Wednesday that the cartels are profiting more than $400 million each month from smuggling people over the border.

The Mexican men are always in tactical vests and carry high-powered rifles, said Olivarez, who speaks on behalf of the state troopers assigned to the border as part of Operation Lone Star. The international boundary is the middle of the river, so the men are not on U.S. soil.

Olivarez said U.S. troops would be allowed to take lethal action, including shooting, to defend themselves “if they make a threat towards National Guard or if they raise that weapon.”

Earlier this week, several miles away in the city of McAllen, five people were shot during a gun battle that Olivarez said came across the border from the Mexican city of Reynosa and involved Mexican cartel operatives and Mexican officials.

    1. The Cartel can not stand with the Taliban. Us would spank any cartel and be home for dinner.

    2. US can get Cartels easier than in the middle East. Should they threaten Federal Agents, Border Patrol has sniper's at the ready.

  4. ...well, this is interesting. Are they using this as a distraction as a second group is ferrying another load, are they just instigating to be dicks? What is in it for them? It seems like there has to be a motive.

    1. Agreed. Seems like it. Otherwise why draw so much attention too yourself? Or, they are doing it out of some sort of bravado, signaling that they are not scared of the U.S. NG troops on the border.

    1. All the CBP stats have shown that the numbers of people surging at the border took off in late 2020 and has continued since then. And yes, it is political in nature. The US has far too many politicians and lobbying groups that actively support open borders and sanctuary cities/counties/states (e.g. CA), so that has encouraged people to make the trip and the cartels and others have been more than happy to take their money.

  10. Taunt Federal officers, even firing the 1 shot into the officers, can activate a shootout. Some officers carry up to date rifles, with scopes.
