Mexican Drug Cartels Launched 9,000 Drone Incursions Into US Airspace

Border security continues to suffer significantly as Mexican drug
cartels conducted more than 9,000 drone incursions into US airspace in
2021, Judicial Watch revealed this week.

Judicial Watch spoke with a senior Homeland Security, interviewed
federal officials at the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Rio
Grande Valley sector in Texas, and even filed a Freedom of Information
Act request with CBP to investigate the use of drones by Mexican drug
cartels to surveil federal, state, county, and city agencies and
conduct nefarious activities on the border.

CBP officials on the ground told the conservative activist group that
cartels used drones for surveillance during human smuggling and drug
trafficking operations into the US. They said the drones, many of
which can be readily bought off the internet or at a big box retailer,
are being used to spot gaps in the border coverage, as well as create
diversions in certain areas to confuse CBP agents while smugglers move
high-value assets across the border in other locations.

Brandon Judd, the union president representing 20,000 CBP agents, told
Judicial Watch the drones are also "dropping fentanyl" packages into
the US.

    "They fly into certain locations, drop them to the ground and
fentanyl is taken off of them and they take back off into Mexico,"
Judd said.

Readers may recall that we've covered cartels flying drugs into the US
via these drones over the years.

Judd said the drones aren't "military-grade" and "can be purchased
anywhere." He didn't mention which drone brands are widely used by
cartels, but one can only assume it's Chinese drone maker DJI.

One concerning topic not covered by Judicial Watch is the
militarization of consumer drones. We noted earlier this year that a
modified consumer drone went on a bombing raid against a rival drug
cartel in Mexico. The video from the drone was absolutely stunning and
mimicked the ones used in Syria by terror organizations. This is
alarming because what's to say that these drones could be used against
CBP and or other US personnel protecting the border.

The fact that Mexican drug cartel drones are penetrating US airspace
represents a significant failure by the Biden administration and could
be a national security threat.

This revelation comes as the Biden Administration lifts the Title 42
public health authority, and an unmanageable number of illegal
immigrants could soon pour across the border.
