The temporary shutdown of El Paso airspace this week has exposed a shocking truth that the mainstream media won't tell you: Mexican drug cartels have been launching up to 60,000 drone incursions into American airspace every single year, and the Biden administration did absolutely nothing about it.
While Biden's border czar Kamala Harris was busy telling Americans the border was "secure," dangerous cartel operatives were flying surveillance drones, smuggling operations, and reconnaissance missions directly over American cities with impunity. For four long years, this administration turned a blind eye to a clear and present danger to our homeland security.
Now President Trump's team is finally taking action, and the El Paso incident shows just how serious this threat really is. When you're forced to shut down airspace over a major American city because of foreign criminal organizations, that tells you everything you need to know about the mess Trump inherited.
The Scope of Biden's Border Failure
Think about those numbers, patriots—40,000 to 60,000 cartel drone incidents per year. That's more than 100 hostile incursions into American airspace every single day. These aren't hobbyist drones flown by kids in the park. These are sophisticated operations run by the same cartels that have flooded our streets with fentanyl and turned our southern border into a war zone.
Under Biden's watch, these criminal organizations operated with complete freedom, using advanced drone technology to coordinate human trafficking, drug smuggling, and intelligence gathering on American soil. The so-called "border security experts" in the previous administration either didn't know or didn't care that foreign criminals were essentially conducting aerial surveillance of American communities.
Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and the Trump team are now dealing with the consequences of four years of deliberate neglect. The airspace shutdown in El Paso isn't a failure—it's exactly the kind of decisive action Americans voted for when they rejected the Democrats' open-border insanity.
How many more national security threats did the Biden regime ignore while they were busy prosecuting Trump supporters and labeling parents as domestic terrorists? The American people deserve answers, and they deserve a government that actually protects them from foreign threats.
