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.

Illegal immigration is apparently no problem for far-left radical governor, Michelle Lujan-Grisham. She is too busy trying to take away guns from legal owners, touting NM as a state for abortion "tourism" and mandating that 43% of cars sold in NM by 2027 be "zewro emission."

This is what you get with Democrats. For those of you in California, this will soon be your entire state.
” far-left radical governor “
Actually she’s just an addled Mexican woman. She only pushes the crap you mention because it gets stupid gringos to vote for her.
Her only real interest is Mexico, Mexicans and...more Mexicans.
What a sad legacy for NM ... electing the ultra lib Gov “Lujan” ,and, now, turning over Mt Cristo Rey, to the cartels.
This area had been secured by We Build the Wall org. Now defunct. One of their major accomplishments. Now destroyed by Bidenistas.
Cede control of US territory to some armed drug running thugs? Without a fight?
Well, ain’t that just some steaming bovine excrement...
One well armed Apache gunship, five or six well armed ‘retired’ spec-ops folks. Hell, send me!
This will all be over in a half hour. Then we leave the bodies for the buzzards. Let these a$$clowns stew in their own juices.
They do this because SloJo and the traitor Mayorkas allow it.
“Gringos” are not a majority in NM. Hispanics and Native Americans outnumber us.

You can’t MAKE someone buy an electric car if they don’t want to. They’ll just hold onto their old ICE one. Hubby drives a 15 yo Toyota Corolla which is still going strong 225,000 miles later, and we’ll keep it as long as we can. Car dealerships can thank the ditzy governor when they go belly up.
Blackjack Pershing, that’s who we need.
I asked folks here on FR some time ago why no one illegally migrates theu NM, and I was told the mountainous terrain made it impossible. Now I guess that is no longer the case.
First thought, airstrikes. Second thought, let it burn.
Are you in the right place???
..... Well .... This is a Prime opportunity for Donald Trump and True Patriotic Americans to make a big splash on the Campaign Front ..... We now have a genuine Demonstrable example that the US is now under a genuine armed invasion from Foreign Nationals ..... Time to get loud about this. Would love to hear KJP and the Mighty Joe Dung and his Merry Band of Sycophants attempt to explain this away .....

Agree!!
This is about as close to the TX, NM, Mexico border point you can get (maybe 1/4 mile north of Mexico and at most a mile west of the TX border). The nasty mountainous territory is farther west along toward AZ.
The wall ends at the base of the mountain and can be seen in Google Earth at 31.783921°N, -106.558309°W. Illegals can just walk around the end of it or hike up the back side of the mountain. The statue of Jesus is about 1/4 mile north of the border.
Nuke the site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
