Biden’s Cartel Shops in Mexico Aid in Invasion of the United States
Bottom Line Up Front: Cartel-run shops in Sonoyta, Mexico, are fueling illegal immigration into the United States. These shops openly sell supplies like camouflage water jugs, carpet shoes, and other tools specifically designed to aid illegal border crossings. Ben Bergquam and Oscar “El Blue” Ramirez documented the troubling expansion of this industry, linking it directly to the Biden administration’s policies.
Watch:
Key Details:
- What’s Happening:
- Sonoyta, Mexico, and other border towns now host around 20 shops catering explicitly to illegal immigrants.
- Items for sale include carpet shoes (used to evade tracking in the desert) and camouflaged water jugs.
- Oscar Ramirez confirms these shops are strategically located in cartel-controlled areas.
- Why It Matters:
- According to Bergquam, “This industry is increasing because of traitorous Democrats, Joe Biden, and open borders policies.”
- The surge in such businesses coincides with the redirection of U.S. Customs and Border Protection resources. Officers are focused on processing CBP1 asylum seekers, leaving gaps exploited by cartels.
- “They have no idea how many are coming in,” said Bergquam, emphasizing the magnitude of the problem.
- The Bigger Picture:
- These shops are part of a growing, lucrative industry tied to illegal border crossings.
- Bergquam and Ramirez stress that this “invasion” has been exacerbated by current U.S. policies.
- They call for action from Republican leaders, saying, “If we can’t change this with the House, Senate, and Presidency, we don’t deserve to be in office.”
- What’s Next:
- Bergquam plans to bring these findings to Phoenix during AmFest.
- He challenges mainstream media to cover the realities he and Ramirez have exposed, asking, “Wonder if the mainstream media will ever show any of this?”
Additional Context and Analysis:
The emergence of these cartel-run shops highlights a troubling trend. By normalizing and openly facilitating illegal crossings, they undermine efforts to maintain border security. The profits from these businesses flow directly to criminal organizations, funding further illegal activities, including drug and human trafficking. “This is a business that thrives on chaos,” Ramirez pointed out, drawing attention to the far-reaching consequences of these operations.
Observers note that these developments are not isolated. Similar patterns are visible in other Mexican border towns like Sasabe, where entire economies now cater to illegal immigration. “Every shop in these towns seems to have a dual purpose,” Bergquam remarked, explaining how businesses mix legitimate products like clothes and decorations with tools of illegal migration. This duality makes it challenging for authorities to identify and shut down complicit operations.
The situation has sparked fierce political debate. Critics of the Biden administration argue that lax border policies encourage such industries to thrive. “This isn’t just about immigration. It’s about national security,” Bergquam emphasized. On the other hand, advocates for open-border policies suggest the issue reflects broader systemic challenges that require comprehensive reform rather than piecemeal enforcement.
Ramirez also highlighted the human cost of these operations. “People are risking their lives because they’re sold a lie,” he said, referring to the dangerous journeys migrants undertake. The cartel shops not only exploit migrants financially but also place them in perilous situations by facilitating illegal crossings through hostile terrain.
As Bergquam prepares to present his findings at AmFest, he aims to pressure policymakers to take decisive action. “We need accountability,” he said, calling on leaders to prioritize border security and dismantle the networks enabling illegal immigration. His message resonates with a growing segment of Americans who view the border crisis as a critical issue.
