At America’s Most Lawless Border with Cochise County, Arizona, Sheriff Mark Dannels
(March 2023) #BidenBorderCrisis #CochiseCounty #ArizonaEsUnNarcoEstado @PeterSantenello
”Cartels recruit drivers through social media. These are U.S. citizens working for criminal cartels, transnational organizations, they’re working here for profit. Their labor on the U.S. side coordinates the efforts, pays them, runs the stash houses.“ — Sheriff Dannels
“A lot of these people don’t have the money [to pay the cartels to cross the broder]. They become servants to these criminal cartels. Drugs, sex, labor, gangs, you name it. If I can stop it here, I call it preservation of life. If you’re caught here, there’s consequences.”
“The numbers are staggering. We’ve always had drugs, but this is the worst I’ve seen it. I’ve been here 38 years. The message from Washington DC, from the president, from Secretary Mayorkas, all you hear is, the border is secured. That’s a false narrative.” — Sheriff Dannels
“Cartels set diversionary fires, there, while they bring something here. They have the upper hand. We’ve given them an extra hand to do that. Let’s get real. [Biden policies] allowed them to do this. That’s the most frustrating thing there is. We’ve got to get it back.” Image
“I sat on Biden’s transition team. I was optimistic. They were complimentary on the innovative projects we were doing here. I was shocked on the day Biden took office, he declared the southwest border non-emergency and shut down all these projects. It’s the worst I’ve seen.”
“I was appointed, on behalf of sheriffs around the country, to be a member of the Homeland Security Advisory Council to help DHS address community issues. When Biden took over, within months, Secretary Mayorkas sent a letter to 28 out of 31 council members and relieved us.”
“If you enforce the rule of law, and have a strong message that we will have a secure border, and you take the oath of office that says you’re going to protect and defend this country, whether you’re in local office or federal, the Constitution says you’ll have a secure border.” Image

🔥🧵/1 In the corruption of our borders, many names have emerged as having played a direct role.

Let’s take a look at one whose part in the border crisis you may not have heard about:

💥JAKE SULLIVAN💥

Biden’s Executive Order 14010, issued in February 2021, is titled “Creating a Comprehensive Regional Framework to Address the Causes of Migration, to Manage Migration throughout North and Central America, and to Provide Safe and Orderly Processing of Asylum Seekers at the United States Border.”

Section 2 of the EO directs the “Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs” (also known as the National Security Advisor) to prepare two strategy documents:

(i) the United States Strategy for Addressing the Root Causes of Migration (the “Root Causes Strategy”); and

(ii) the United States Strategy for Collaborative Management of Migration in the Region (the “Collaborative Management Strategy”).

According to the White House Transition Project (2009), “ideally, the national security advisor serves as an honest broker of policy options for the president in the field of national security, rather than as an advocate for his or her own policy agenda.”

Read on to learn more about how Sullivan strategized to “manage” migration …Image

🧵/2 Per the Executive Order, the primary objectives of the Collaborative Management Strategy were to “manage” migration and to provide “safe and orderly processing of asylum seekers” — NOT to prevent or discourage mass numbers of undocumented people from approaching our borders, although there is some attention given to resettling migrants in countries close to their own home countries.

According to the EO, the Strategy “shall identify and prioritize actions to strengthen cooperative efforts to address migration flows, including by expanding and improving upon previous efforts to resettle throughout the region those migrants who qualify for humanitarian protection.”

“The Collaborative Management Strategy should focus on programs and infrastructure that facilitate access to protection and other lawful immigration avenues, in both the United States and partner countries, as close to migrants’ homes as possible.”

“To support the development of the Collaborative Management Strategy, the United States Government shall promptly begin consultations with civil society, the private sector, international organizations, and governments in the region, including the Government of Mexico.”

“These consultations should address … humanitarian assistance, including through expansion of shelter networks, to address the immediate needs of individuals who have fled their homes to seek protection elsewhere in the region.”

From the July 29, 2021 Collaborative Migration Management “Fact Sheet,” it is clear that the aim was to expand migration and create “LAWFUL PATHWAYS” to the United States, not to discourage or prevent illegal immigration.

The Fact Sheet explains that implementation of the Strategy would involve enlisting support from:

🔹governments in and outside the region

🔹international organizations

🔹civil society

🔹the private sector

🔹multilateral organizations

🔹international financial institutions

🔹members of U.S. Congress and their staff

🔹labor unions

(This is starting to look familiar…) 🤔Image

Image
🧵/3 The 13-page Strategy document begins by acknowledging “the humanitarian situation in the Northern Triangle” (El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras) caused by “long-standing … violence, lack of employment opportunities and corruption” as well as more recent events like “the COVID-19 pandemic, recurrent droughts, and two hurricanes in November 2020” as predicates to launch “both immediate responses and a new, strategic approach for managing regional migration in the medium- to long-term.”

Note 1: With the possible exception of targeted violence, none of the above factors constitutes lawful grounds for asylum under U.S. or international law.

Note 2: President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador, who took office in June 2019, has dramatically reduced violent crime in his country by reforming the criminal justice system.Image

🔥🇺🇳Former High-Level United Nations Officials Launch DOGE-UN to Investigate Agency “Inefficiencies”

An ad hoc group @DOGEUN2025 has been formed to publish a report ahead of the 2026 UN secretary-general selection in hopes that the next leader will run the agency more efficiently.

Hugh Dugan, a longtime member of the U.S. delegation to the UN and former National Security Council adviser on international organizations, is working with a group of former presidents of the UN General Assembly. Dugan told Fox News Digital that he has recruited “insiders and outsiders who used to be insiders” to investigate the UN’s effectiveness and identify waste.

“Unfortunately, the mindset there over the years prefers to look at outputs over outcomes,” Dugan said. “How many meetings did we hold, how many pencils did we buy, instead of outcomes. Like, was there an opportunity to get peace underway more quickly in conflict settings, or to what extent are we ameliorating the rate of hunger in the world?”

Many serious instances of mission-creep, malfeasance and corruption at the UN have been exposed in recent months.

Todd Bensman, investigative author and senior fellow at the DC-based Center for Immigration Studies @CIS_org, has been reporting on how UN agencies created to assist refugees have been coordinating illegal mass migration in collaboration with criminal human smuggling groups.

In October, Bensman reported in The Daily Wire that in recent years the UN High Commissioner for @Refugees and the International Organization for @UNmigration have built an “incentivizing safety net of aid way stations for migrants.”

According to @BensmanTodd, in 2024 the two UN agencies distributed a record hundreds of millions of dollars in aid to migrants on their way to the U.S. border “in the form of cash cards, cash in envelopes, food, vouchers for onward travel and lodging, medical treatment, pharmaceuticals, legal counseling and much more.”

Construction is underway in southern Mexico for a “mass illegal migration mall” intended to house UN and NGO migration-help groups “under one convenient one-stop shop roof.” When the project in Tapachula was announced in April 2024 by Mexico’s foreign ministry, the UNHCR’s Mexico representative Giovanni Lepri stated the purpose of the facility is “to respond comprehensively to the needs of … migrant refugees who travel together from all continents and arrive in Tapachula in need of … attention.” Two other such “malls” have been built in Monterrey and Tijuana. According to Bensman, the UNHCR received $1.9 billion in U.S. taxpayer funds in 2024 and $2.1 billion in 2023.

This fall Bensman investigated Panama’s efforts to stem illegal migration through the Darien Gap and told the Daily Mail, “what I discovered shocked me.” In the seaside Colombian village of Capurgana, Bensman witnessed a sophisticated human smuggling operation in which the Gaitanist Self-Defense Forces of Colombia, “a powerful paramilitary drug-trafficking cartel that rules the region’s smuggling routes,” controls docks and boats for illegal “migrants” to cross the Gulf of Urabá and land in Panama.

Investigative journalism group @realmuckraker has also documented the UN’s activities on the migration trail. They exposed large, full-color folding maps “showing incredibly detailed human trafficking routes” from Colombia to the U.S. border, indicating the locations of aid stations along the way. The maps are produced and distributed by UNHCR, IOM and other UN-funded organizations.

Also in October, the UN Dispute Tribunal ordered Vitaly Vanshelboim, formerly of the UN Office for Project Services (UNOPS), to repay the UN $58.8 million lost in deals he made with British businessman David Kendrick “who showered him with interest-free loans, a Mercedes for his wife and perks for his sons,” the AP reported.

The UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) has been exposed by @UNWatch for ties to Hamas and for the radicalization of Palestinian school children.Image
I agree. I believe that rather than improving their efficiency, the UN should be required to make a case for its continuing existence. But I doubt such a case will be persuasive. @DOGEUN2025

🔥🇻🇪🧵U.S. Border Patrol has evidence of a covert operation run by Maduro to infiltrate the United States with released inmates and pair them with Venezuelan intel operatives to neutralize former Venezuelan military members, politicians, and law enforcement officials in the U.S. Image
🔥🇻🇪An anonymous source within U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) released the report, known as a Field Intelligence Report (FIR), to Breitbart Texas.

The information in the report was provided by a Venezuelan source with details regarding the Maduro operation. Image
🔥🇻🇪The likelihood that Venezuela’s intelligence agency SEBIN may be involved in a plot to silence or protect matters of interest to the Maduro regime is supported by the dictator’s previous use of the organization to quell dissent within his own country.

🇺🇳The UNITED NATIONS is expanding its “migration” infrastructure throughout Mexico and Central America, cementing a pathway to the United States’ southern border.

TODD BENSMAN told @Eyeofthestormsd about his investigation into the elaborate network of non-governmental organizations (NGOs), coordinated by the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM).

An intricate web composed of UN agencies, national governments and NGOs is building and operating illegal migration “NGO village” facilities funded by billions in U.S. taxpayer dollars, Bensman reported in an exposé for Daily Wire.

On a recent reporting trip to Colombia, Bensman investigated an NGO village and exposed evidence that the UN and the Colombian government are working closely with the paramilitary Clan del Golfo smuggling cartel that controls the Colombia-Panama border. A report in the Daily Mail (UK) disclosed how Bensman was threatened by cartel affiliates for his efforts to expose Clan del Golfo operations, which he managed to film with a drone.

Bensman believes the major investment in a massive new “migration mall” construction project in Tapachula suggests Mexico and the UN anticipate a Harris victory and a continuation of the U.S. open-border policies that have been attracting migrants from all over the world since the start of the Biden administration.

Wealthy migrants from China and Venezuela come with “huge wads of greenbacks” and have been successfully reaching the U.S. border — despite a Mexican military operation to restrain migration — by “paying human smugglers huge amounts of money to pay off the Mexicans all the way through to get in,” Bensman said.

As Biden’s deal with Mexico’s former president to keep the “poorest of the poor” migrants in southern Mexico appears to be winding down, Bensman found that migrants delayed by Mexico’s military and Guardia Nacional are paying close attention to U.S. election news and polling.

Bensman said he expects Mexico to allow “migrants” to attempt to approach the U.S. border after the November 5th election. @BensmanTodd

🔥TODD BENSMAN: There’s so much more that the Trump campaign could be talking about. There’s so much more good reporting about the flights, the CBP One program. About the fact that the Panamanian government has offered to close the Darién Gap, and the Biden Harris administration promised to give them the money to do it, and never sent the check. Trump should be out there, stumping on that. Saying, where’s the money?

🔥 CISA’s internal analysis of the 2020 election, obtained via FOIA, said 76 percent of assessed digital election machinery was vulnerable to attack, and 48 percent had a critical or high severity vulnerability to attack.

Most secure election ever? NOPE.

Biden’s EO 14019 “directs every federal agency to register and mobilize voters. It’s now reported that welfare and other agencies in all but four states … are giving out voter registration forms to migrants without requiring proof of citizenship.”Image
“Such is the anti-Trump vitriol in the US that a recent poll found 28 percent of Democrats thought the country would have been better off if Trump had been assassinated. Amid such hatred, we can take a willingness to commit election fraud as a given.”
