In addition to providing access to the video report it also provides an extensive written report about the possible significance and consequences of the arrest.
Here is how the accompanying written report began:
The notoriously brutal leader of Mexico’s feared Zetas drug cartel was captured in a pickup truck near the border city of Nuevo Laredo Monday, officials said, in what is the first major blow against an organized crime leader by a Mexican administration struggling to drive down persistently high levels of violence.
Miguel Angel Trevino Morales, 40, was also found with $2 million in cash as he was captured by Mexican Marines on a dirt road in the countryside outside of Nuevo Laredo, a city opposite the Texas border which has long served as the Zetas’ base of operations. The truck was halted by a Marine helicopter and Trevino Morales was taken into custody along with a bodyguard and an accountant and eight guns, government spokesman Eduardo Sanchez told reporters.
During my conversation with Trace I mentioned a report that appeared in Breitbart about how an apparently innocent lawful immigrant was kidnapped in Texas by members of the Gulf Cartel in a case of mistaken identity. It is feared he was, nevertheless, killed to silence him.
Here is a link to that disturbing news report:
On August 29, 2012 CAPS (Californians for Population Stabilization) posted my commentary:
I make these points because the current Secretary of Homeland Security, Janet Napolitano has regularly made the assertion that our borders are secure and there is no spillover violence.
I wish it were not so, but the truth contradicts her optimistic claims. This, in port, is why I have come to refer to the DHS as being the Department of Homeland Surrender.
Perhaps when the administration proposes a replacement for Napolitano, that candidate for Secretary of Homeland Security be made to answer questions about the current state of border security in light of all of the irrefutable evidence including the fact that Miguel Angel Trevino-Morales has a likely appointment with the American criminal justice system because of the crimes his organization are accused of committing.
Immigration is not a single issue but a singular issue that impacts nearly every challenge and threat confronting the United States today! Simply stated, the immigration laws were enacted to save lives and protect the jobs of American workers.
Our armed forces are charged with securing America’s borders externally while the DHS is supposed to secure those same borders from within. The failures of the DHS to live up to its half of the equation are undermining the efforts, valor and incredible sacrifices of Americas men and women who serve in our military!
If our government’s failures to protect American jobs by securing our nation’s borders and effectively enforcing our immigration laws concerns you or especially if it angers you, I ask you to call your Senators and Congressional “Representative. This is not only your right- it is your obligation!
All I ask is that you make it clear to our politicians that we are not as dumb as they hope we are!
We live in a perilous world and in a perilous era. The survival of our nation and the lives of our citizens hang in the balance.
This is neither a Conservative issue, nor is it a Liberal issue- simply stated, this is most certainly an AMERICAN issue!
You are either part of the solution or you are a part of the problem!
Democracy is not a spectator sport!
Lead, follow or get out of the way!
