Border Patrol Union Blames Biden Admin for Cartel’s Possession of ‘Military-Grade Weapons’
25th February 2026
The National Border Patrol Council is blaming the Biden administration for a Mexican criminal cartel obtaining “military-grade weapons.”
“For the entire [four] years of the Biden administration’s destructive term, his team allowed unfettered access and ceded complete control of our border to the Mexican cartels, so it’s no surprise to anyone that the cartels were able to obtain the military-grade weapons [and] equipment that they currently possess,” the National Border Patrol Council, the official union of the U.S. Border Patrol, wrote on X.
Mexican authorities discovered and seized rifles with grenade launchers, rocket launchers, and mortar shells during a raid Sunday that left a top cartel leader dead, Reuters reports.
