(from the article) :" In addition to the arrests, agents seized approximately $3.5 million in bulk U.S. currency,
685 kilograms of cocaine, 24 kilograms of fentanyl, and approximately 20,000 rounds of .50 caliber ammunition and hundreds of body armor vests at a truck yard in Otay Mesa."

Now, imagine this same situation with open borders, no border patrol, defunded police agencies, and reduced effectiveness of DOJ.
This will be the future of the USA under Biden .

They want the cash. The confiscation of the ammo gives them warm fuzzies.

Sounds like a typical Vegas weekend setup for Hunter Biden.

LOL! I was just going to ask what they found on Buckwheat Mesa. So, what value did they assign to the .50 cal ammo?

Least expensive I found at ammoseek was $2.79/rd so about $558,000 just in 50. Good stuff would easily run over a mil.

My default position on most of these cases like this, is that the Cartel thought they could get away without PAYING the Protection Money to their Official Handlers in the CIA that helped them Create and run their Business.

Good position. I think President Trump has hamstrung many channels of drug/human trafficking profits among our enemies and they are now scraping for resources, climbing over each other to save themselves.

When Trump is declared the winner, I believe the Deep State will use it’s militias (gangs like these) nation wide to creat absolute mayhem. Glad they are arresting them. They arrested 700 gang members based in central america but operating in the US. Need to hack away the roots of “enforcers’ and gangs.

“Buckwheat Mesa”

I’ve often thought that, but it’s the first time I’ve heard or read it.

“Least expensive I found at ammoseek was $2.79/rd so about $558,000 just in 50. Good stuff would easily run over a mil.”

They could have been talking about 20k Hornady 50 cal lead balls, which would cost about $2,400. But, you’re probably right. They’re talking 50 BMG. /s

If they were lead balls, imagine the histrionics from the envirowackos.
