RIO BRAVO, Texas Chaos erupted in a small Texas border town as Los Zetas smugglers launched a complex smuggling operation. Border Patrol agents responded to an illegal crossing that quickly tied up agency resources in the area, enabling smugglers to move higher-value cargo elsewhere.
What had only moments earlier been a quiet neighborhood became a scene of chaos as Laredo Sector Border Patrol agents and a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Air and Marine Operations (AMO) helicopter aircrew leaped into action following the illegal crossing of a few migrants. Agents captured at least one in the presence of the Breitbart News team while the complex Los Zetas-connected smuggling operation unfolded.
Shortly after Breitbart News stopped at a well-known river crossing area in Rio Bravo, a monitoring Border Patrol agent quickly drove off in response to illegal activity. As the Breitbart crew followed, multiple Border Patrol vehicles responded and the AMO helicopter quickly appeared overhead to provide air cover and communications to the ground-based agents. Breitbart News witnessed the initial runner who led agents on a foot pursuit through the neighborhood.
This is territory that is controlled by Los Zetas, Breitbart Border and Cartel Chronicles Projects Director Brandon Darby explained. This is a neighborhood that is a heavy smuggling neighborhood for Los Zetas.
We saw Border Patrol looking for someone, and there are multiple things going on, Darby said describing the chaos that quickly erupted in the neighborhood. Whats going on is they use one person to come in and run to distract the authorities while they are doing something else.

The headline sounds like the attempt to smuggle the higher value things were unsuccessful, yet the story sounds like it was successful.
Which was it, please?
This is part of Laredo Sector, where they have already started doing surveys, in anticipation of 2020 money for wall building.
Laredo will become the next big hot spot after the Rio Grande Valley wall gets built next year, so we need to get the Laredo wall in the works soon.
And yet the cartel invasion goes on because the bought President of Mexico says for us to leave them alone.
Dang, that was a good video.
When are we going to realize Mexico is not an ally in any way to us and merely a hostile, criminally and politically corrupted crap hole intent in one way or another of destroying us?
