It all comes back to people hiring illegals and your friends and family that consume illegal substances....why do we NEVER hear about these criminals?
My family has lived on the border in New Mexico for over a hundred years and we have seen the progression of crime from across the border. We all hope that our representatives will protect us, especially our President. It is so disappointing that they have an agenda that doesn't include protecting U.S. citizens. People need to contact their representatives and senators and keep doing it until they listen. Politicians who want to outlaw guns should be the target of calls. They will not protect us but they want us defenseless. I for one am tired of them.

killing it loco with these interviews. with these subjects. shinning the light on the state of our border and country. are and should be at the top of the list. 😎💯💪🏽🙏🏽🇺🇸
Comment about keeping car doors unlocked is exactly what 90% a ranch houses in South Texas are forced to do and have been for decades. Might as well leave them unlocked to prevent the breaking of the window.
He is right the gangs in prison in texas have grown because of the cartel relationship
I had heard of the wristbands but didnt realize they were that type. They look like hospital bands wow. Tyvm for bringing this out in the open also I forgot to say that above lol. I love the info being brought out and I'm looking forward to more shows and I really hope the entire nasty truth out there even if ppl dont believe it they need to hear and see it. Modern day slavery and operating worldwide w no boundaries, no age limits, no race is immune no person is immune no age is immune etc... No sugar coating tho. Again tyvm guys 💙👼🏻🙏🏼💜👼🏻🙏🏼❤👼🏻🙏🏼

Love your content!!!! Be a light to the people in the dark!!!!
This has been an ongoing issue for years . I , like many today was oblivious to it until I had one of those accidental encounters with an agent in the early eighties.I was in Arizona helping a friend start an outdoor tourist oriented business in the Apache junction area . On one of my few days off I went into Mesa for a meal , because the restaurant was crowed I offed the extra seat to a strangely uniformed (to me ) older gentleman , again to my 20 self , turns out he was boarder patrol . I was from a small mountain town here in Co , I knew vaguely of the organization, now I got a crash course on its history , and at that time current issues . Turns out smuggling while not on todays scale was an , along with illegal weapons comming north, a problem .I new even then what RPD and AK ment , he told me about how they had caught some of those very weapons along with drugs on the US side headed north . This meeting opened my eyes to the much wider world , since then I have tried in my small way to keep up with what has become a disaster to boarder towns and cites far from the boarder . The local sheriff’s department has been involved in raids on drug houses. ICE has been raiding farms after illegal’s , the impact of Denver’s asinine “sanctuary city “ status has bled throughout the state , damaging local economies, violent crime is on a upward surge , and as long as the citizens bury their head in the sands , and do not push back against stupid and lazy state local and federal leaders this will continue to spiral out of control, at least in my humble opinion
Every area of each state is a search connection for the cartel, and yet we are still stupid about the borders,..😡🇺🇸
Just wow!
Mr.jones is a great speaker.usa needs him.
Amen on that
He is so right about this topic and I am Hispanic by the way
this shit need way more views for the sake of the american people
Needs to visit SHAWN RAY SHOW seriously. Great podcast and thank you for what you both do. Even average americans are waking up to rhe cartels...people are fighting off addiction from fentenyl and i pray the awakening and enforcement of some of the greats around the world to do extraordinary.... need to think out the box.
A lot of drug smuggling and people crossing through Piedras Nebraska, Texas!
i seen a video out of Arizona with a cartel in the front passenger seat of a car.
The current administration and our open borders provided the cartels with new sources of revenue to help them grow. Thanks Joe.
I LOVE your podcast and your guests! WOW! Is Europe better? Where's Homeland Security?
Ironclad rocks❤
Let's start looking at these local boarder offices of these small towns.
Good Programming sir 🙏👍🌎
Get this man back for another episode, this episode felt way too short
Terrifying!
The only thing that will secure the border is to establish a 5 miles thick automatic unalive dmz zone. To be monitored by drones and seismic sensors.

Actually, most of the people who specialize in border security agree that a wall is all that’s needed to greatly reduce the number of immigrants illegally entering the country. True, a wall is not going to stop people from getting over it. However, what it does do is allow for the Border Patrol time to get to the problem before it gets out of hand. It’s sad that just about every other country in the world has the ability to secure their borders, but the United States.
Amen ! Jason 🔥🙏
Great info.
"...the problem walks among us now" Bingo.
This is an absolute disaster and so scary
Y’all should get a hold of Andrew Hogan the ex-DEA agent who was in the operation to capture el chapo to give his experience about all that and about his opinion in the war on drugs
How many Senators and Governors do you think get paid under the table not to approve laws!?!?
I’ve heard of cartel hits all the time in Ohio mostly in Columbus . There was also US Army soldiers doing contracts for the cartel. Crazy! This was back in 09 so you know it’s worse now
Goda blessings. Ammen
We’ve all been lulled to sleep to let this happen
Is all a collaboration.... money is king...
Funniest part is when he said, “ in case people have been living under a rock tell en who are you “ and bro looked at em like, bru i know no one knows who i am , i was a under cover agent 😂😂. Bra was tryne be polite but it came out assholeish hahaha

Thank you 🙏🏿 for your service to our nation and the innocent. I was in Clandestine Services from 1970 for about 7 years till I came back to the US starting in Cabinda Gulf Angola, Colombia etc., due to my fluency in Spanish and Portuguese. The biggest threat apart from Fentanyl which unfortunately is a self imposed curse Americans do to themselves to anesthetize the pains of their more fortunate reality. The real curse is the trafficking of children and sexual exploitation of women. In two years I’ve had four women completely disappear off the face of the earth from Tijuana. The first was a 30 year old black US Citizen from El Cajon that had a child from a Cartel street dealer and lived too close to the edge. Thought to be murdered. The second was a 21 year old French Canadian student from Montreal that was getting her kicks in TJ and thought it was fun. Gone no trace. I’ve had an investigator in the Justice Department look and they think she’s dead. The last time someone saw her she was going in accompanied into a hotel near the arch known for sequestering young foreign girls. The next was a lady about 35 hiding from an abusive man in San Diego she’s Mexican with a green card. Disappeared. Thought to be dead. The last was a beautiful Mexican woman from Acapulco Guerrero whose family owned a gold mine. Her husband was murdered by a Cartel so she was hiding in a residence hotel where I stayed. One night she disappeared off the streets presumed dead. Then a Mexican National a fellow musician and his son are now hiding in the US legally as the cartel took away his house in Rosarito just because they could. He’s staying out of Mexico so he doesn’t have to sign over the house but his life is in danger. This is two years. Four people I cared for presumed dead murdered trafficked or disposed of?

Ya its horrible.. I spent my first few decades of life in usa and the latest couple decades here on the south side of the border... I never knew how great I had it , how fortunate I was to be born American and just how bad it is for our neighbors, depending on the perspective things are so wild here.. as an American when I libed there I remember I used to complain and ask why things are so difficult for me, why this , why that, boo hoo, boo hoo.. It took me to be here a good chunk of years and basically integrated into life here and understand what I truly had all my life and did not take advantage of , was more focused on my perceived difficulty which in all reality was my lack of knowledge of life outside of USA, why so many Mexicans came to USA, just to work a job most white people didn't want to work anyway.. Now I know very well why so many want to get the f out of here.. I say to my friends sometimes "if I was born in Mexico, I'd get thehell outta here as fast as I could as well.. It's literally hell here, rule of law does not exist, the only "law" is the cartel, they are the law, the judge,jury, executioner and any amd everyone else...Wild, wild, shit here... One thing you don't want to do is ANYTHING that puts you on their radar.... If you start making a bit of money, or influence your on their radar.. but def if you break a rule or law they set, good luck... Such a beautiful country, so sad to see how the government just sucks the money and life outta the people and country and do absolutely nothing to help society, just take take take and use the people.. NOBODY IS SAFE HERE!! NOWHERE IS SAFE!! ITS WILD FOR REAL!! BE SAFE EVERYONE
Just like the last 20 years, you guys aint going to change shit. This is all talk. 💤💤💤

Los Zetas was originally founded by approximately 30 soldiers from Mexico’s elite military unit Grupo Aeromóvil de Fuerzas Especiales (GAFE) to provide protection for the Gulf Cartel. Of these 30 original soldiers, a few had training from the United States and Israeli militaries. However, the vast majority by far were trained by Mexico’s very own military. Today, Los Zetas is nothing more than a shadow of its former self, having been greatly diminished battling with other cartels and the Mexican military. The few members that are left are nothing more than untrained street thugs.
The can also deputies all law enforcement to help in bringing in more numbers to help border patrol and ICE to deport the people who are here illegally
😢
I’m seen Jaeson’s info and news reports before, it might help if some of our government would listen to what he’s saying, but is this all planned who knows but at times it feels that way.
It’s sad but they are right on the money. It’s even getting worse in New York!
Check it out, y'all need to take a step back. A lot of y'all probably don't know what NAFTA was? It all started NAFTA
You interviewed one of the people who is basically an asset to the Cartels. Any American assets is full partner since the 80s. I've been off and on Fentanyl for 20 years and never heard or seen this border guy. Must really didn't want to be seen
They make their own brew outside in the woods in huge pots with wooden poles to stir what they cooking.and the chinese come over and teach them how to cook..and there is now new stuff that just came out better than fetnal..
It’s time you start paying into ad campaigns on instagram, twitter, etc, it’s not that expensive and you can reach many other groups of people.
Release El Chopo from ADX, give him back his power, and let him clean it up to provide central control.

Hi
I do like that "D" word. 😃 40:50
I’m so glad the cartels waited until everyone voted for them to take over, how nice of them 😊
Cartels will never be designated as foreign terrorist organizations, there is too much money being made. I have hard about this idea since I was in elementary school in 2010 watching vice documentaries. All the Chinese coming over is concerning tho and how easy it is to go back n forth without a passport is scary

It's wild here in my city. Daily I see these tiny Mexican women at red lights always with a small child bundled up in a blanket tied to their backs which is always sleeping (which I find odd) selling chocolate bars out of a tiny hand held basket that is nicely organized. I've seen them at four or five main streets when you exit the highways leading to and from Chicago. I'm convinced that is how they're paying off the cartels for getting them here. Its say too organized and the fact they ALL ALWAYS have a small child on their back is no coincidence.
But it is true it is very true what he is telling us

That's not true at all. Cartels don't want to overthrow governments, they don't want to subjugate women. Cartels just want to sell their dope, it's all about money for them. The real problem is us Americans who demand drugs.

Unfortunately talking about what you can do on an individual level will get you red flagged by your neighbors, and put you on a list. There is many things you can do as an individual but there are great personal risks and sacrafices that come with the many choices that you can make. Whether that be leading, taking things into your own hands, educating others and more.
