Armed suspected cartels members were seen on camera entering Texas from Mexico on Saturday but escaped capture by Border Patrol. The incursion follows several reported incidents of armed cartel members at the border, including a smuggler carrying a rifle as he transported migrants across the Rio Grande last week and an armed group captured in June at the same location as those who recently escaped.



Fox News reporter Bill Melugin posted photos from Fronton, Texas showing three suspected cartel members, “NEW: Per law enforcement source, a group of suspected cartel gunmen armed with rifles & body armor were seen on cameras crossing illegally into the Fronton, TX area in the RGV Saturday night. Elite Border Patrol BORTAC agents were called out & searched area, but found nobody.”

Joe Biden was in Arizona today. He did not visit the border. He visited the Grand Canyon and blocked off land from uranium mining with a national monument designation.
