A video posted by reliable Fox News reporter Matt Finn shows illegal immigrants ravaging a mountain in Sunland Park, New Mexico, while Border Patrol agents apparently won’t defend it, calling the mountain the Cartel’s.
Finn wrote in the video post, “Unbelievable. A Border Patrol agent in Sunland Park, NM just told us a mountain in the United States is ‘not ours’ anymore. ‘It’s theirs.’ Referring to Cartels. We literally spent five minutes on Mt. Cristo Rey and a group of illegals breezed by.”
Mt. Cristo Rey is adorned by a 29-foot-tall statue of Jesus, which was erected in 1940 after the vision of Fr. Lourdes Costa “ who in 1933 after looking out the back window of his residence in the community of Smeltertown, envisioned erecting a monument at the summit of this glorious mountain.”
Since the purchase of the mountain and the building of the Jesus statue, Mt. Cristo Rey has become a holy place for Catholics for generations.
But the criminal illegal immigration seeping across the border by way of the mountain has led to vandalism and desecration. Vandalism and gang-related graffiti have scourged the holy place.
The illegal immigration scourge, which amped up again after Joe Biden was inaugurated in 2021, has gotten to its worst peak in the history of the country. States like Texas have done their part to stem the flow into their state, but with the robust actions in Texas, illegal immigrants are now flowing through New Mexico, with Border Patrol apparently not able to stem the illegal flow on Mt. Cristo Rey.

If there were any balls left in this country there would be a cluster bomb air strike on this location tonight followed immediately by napalm.
Trump should be all over this.
“You can’t MAKE someone buy an electric car if they don’t want to. They’ll just hold onto their old ICE one.”
When they shut down gas stations and/or make purchases subject to your social credit score you’ll be persuaded.
Even though it was the wrong thread...
“...There’s a great future in napalm. Think about it. Will you think about it?”
Shamelessly paraphrased from “The Graduate”.
Ukraine should give us over a hundred billion dollars to deal with this invasion.
And it should be their top priority.
Before this section of the wall was built Union Pacific inter-modal trains with containers bound for Kansas, Dallas or Houston would stop opposite this location waiting to arrive in El Paso for fueling. Gangs would cross the border, climb on the train, open containers and throw boxes to their accomplices. That no longer happens because in addition to the fence, UP build a large fuel terminal to the west at Santa Teresa and trains do not stop and wait any more. However, even though the robbers are gone, the criminal smugglers now control the scene.
A tourist who rides Amtrak can see the fence up close as the tracks are only 25 feet from the border.
I mentioned it in my comment about our radical governor.
Now they can, yes. But not when Trump was Pres. and BP active.
BP agent presence has been greatly reduced. Biden has them spending time processing illegals who surrender rather than chasing the got-aways who traffic in drugs and humans, or are criminals in their own countries.
Things that happened under Biden were unimaginable under Trump.
Gotcha, thanks for the clarification.
I despise the Obama/Biden Administration!
DC is no longer US territory either. It’s under the control of characters who have US titles, but no loyalty to the nation.
Me? I'd figure out where the cartel men are concentrated at. Put Nape and Snake in on them. One time and the rest of 'em would head back south...
After what we did to our own citizens in Waco, taking the mountain from the cartels should not be a moral dilemma. Besides, Mexico is busy with Ecuador.
I thought most American Hispanics who live in New Mexico are very much against illegal immigration. Has that changed? Many of them were descendants from when New Mexico was admitted into statehood and many others came in legally. Are illegals a majority in New Mexico now?
During the Trump Administration, units from the 10th Mountain Division of the Army would rotate through there, and maintain surveillance to support the Border patrol, as a training exercise.
Was anything actually built or torn down there?
Time to end the games and to unleash the fury of Americans, they need to experience the smell of napalm in the morning to put an end to this invasion.
