Arizona rancher warns of cartel scouts, open borders, and potential terrorists

Rancher's motion-activated cameras catch thousands crossing border wearing camouflage and carrying drugs.

Title: Arizona Rancher Exposes Disturbing Presence of Cartel Scouts on American Mountains

In a recent interview, an Arizona rancher has shed light on a concerning issue plaguing the mountains on the US-Mexico border - the presence of cartel scouts. The rancher, who requested anonymity, has been closely monitoring the situation on his property, which spans over 5 and a half miles of the international boundary.

Using a network of motion-activated cameras, the rancher has captured footage showing thousands of individuals dressed in camouflage, donning carpet shoes, and carrying backpacks crossing the border. Startlingly, he states that he has been informed by Border Patrol that around 20% of these individuals are transporting drugs.

Despite his efforts to alert the authorities, the rancher laments the lack of action to address the issue effectively. He points out that out of the estimated 3,050 individuals crossing, a staggering 2,400 successfully evade Border Patrol apprehension, suggesting a significant gap in border security measures.

What raises additional concerns for the rancher is the potential risk of terrorists exploiting this porous border. He warns that there has been a concerning influx of known terrorists crossing into the United States since changes in border policies under President Joe Biden.

Surprisingly, the rancher reveals that his interactions with law enforcement have been limited. While acknowledging the dedication of Border Patrol agents, he suggests that their focus has now shifted towards simply processing individuals rather than preventing illegal border crossings. He shares that no Border Patrol agent has visited his ranch in over three months, leaving the border exposed.

The rancher's firsthand experience with the dangers posed by illegal border crossings is distressing. He recounts a chilling encounter, where MS-13 gang members approached his home. Thankfully, his wife's quick thinking and refusal to grant them access to the house averted a potentially dangerous situation. Instead, she offered them sandwiches, which they accepted, before departing.

The rancher's account exposes the glaring loopholes in border security and the alarming lack of comprehensive measures to safeguard the region. Calling attention to the mounting risks for border communities, he urges law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, to take swift action.

While the interview raises serious concerns, it remains to be seen how authorities will respond to address the issues raised. As the debate over border security continues, voices like this rancher serve as a reminder that action is urgently needed to protect American lands and communities.
