quote:

According to Republican Congressman Michael Waltz Mexican cartels have partnered with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps to exploit the U.S. southern border.

quote:

In fact, the IRGC (Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps) makes money from the drug trade, which they use to fund Iranian terror proxies like Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis.

quote:

There is evidence indicating that Iran, in particular, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the Hezbollah affiliated with Iran are involved in the global drug trafficking network.



Meanwhile, thousands of fighting age men from countries where terrorism is thriving have entered the US—many of them undetected.

Can't believe border patrol would be so racist to have concerns about randos popping into our country.

We are fricked here.

The cartels will take anyone’s money as long as it doesn’t splash back on them, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they did coyote these assholes over.

I don’t see how well they would be able to operate for long here, though, given that they likely stick out like a sore thumb outside of places like Dearborn.

Yeah, Mike Glover said last night (on his YT channel) the next 9/11 is only a matter of time.

The problem with these stories is that they assume the cartels are very dumb.

This is the very type of stuff the cartels avoid because THAT is how you get US military response in Mexico, which is their biggest fear.

I mean when low level gangsters associated with the cartels accidentally kill a civilian on the US side of the border, heads roll (literally). That's an unforgiveable frickup.

They’ve been saying this nonsense since 9/11. Why would Mexican cartels partner with Islamic terrorists? They don’t need their money, cartels need living Americans to sell drugs to, not dead Americans. Even though drug cartels, they are Mexicans who are almost all catholic. We have Islamic terrorists coming in and doing work with catholic cartels now?

I’m sure some have snuck through but I don’t see cartels helping. Irl cartels would just behead them.

Stop dismissing these stories so lightly. This is a major concern. I know you have seen the pictures and videos of these people coming into the country, you just can’t admit that it’s a huge problem because that would end the democrat party if they allowed terrorist to pour in.

You see the democrat party as they were 25 years ago. Wake up.

What are you smoking? The US is the one arming the cartels. They feel cozy as hell unless Trump gets re-elected.

The problem with your logic is “how would the cartels know who is and is not a terrorist” when these orchestrated caravans come from South America all the way to the border?

Think about it. Millions come across, many paid and bussed to the border. Do cartels have access to our terrorist databases to check them and take them off the busses?

It’s a pretty common sense question.

Why would drug dealers put drugs in Halloween candy?

Why would internet celebrities use a character like "MoMo" to get children to harm themselves?

Some people like to live in fear and will believe anything that fits into that mindset.

Wasn't this the plot of the last season of Jack Ryan?

You seem to have your belief system and a god complex that whatever you think is logical and right is correct and anyone that disagrees is wrong. It is fascinating some of the mental hoops you jump through to act like you know everything. Most of what you say is just your opinion spoken as fact.

You do realize terrorists can come from South America right? I mean, I don’t want to confuse you, but it happens.

And if that was only check for terrorists, dialect, uh…really?

And I really am saying this from a position of having spoken to military intel. I’m not just spit balling theory. This is a well known problem.
