BREAKING: Border Patrol sent out a memo informing agents that cartel bosses have authorized the use of weaponized drones against our agents.
News Nation correspondent: “We also just got our hands on a memo out of the Rio Grande Valley sector that actually says that this is kind of crazy here—that the cartels authorize the use of weaponized drones, explosives against CBP personnel and U.S. law enforcement down there at the southern border. Now, they’re actually being encouraged, of course, to remain cognizant and vigilant, but they’re also being encouraged to use their long arms. Blake, I have never seen this in a CBP memo before.
They say ‘wear your ballistic gear.’ Yes, but they’re telling them, ‘Hey, have your long arms.’ Yes, they are saying watch out for these weaponized drones.
We’ve seen a lot of infighting with two different factions of the cartel down in Tamaulipas—that is on the south side of the border in the Rio Grande Valley—and they have like an all-out war happening between these cartel factions. So, they are warning now that they might be using these weaponized drones against U.S. personnel on this side. So definitely cause for concern there.”
