(AmericanProsperity.com) – The consequences of Joe Biden’s open borders are bearing fruits: Mexican cartel terrorists have invaded American soil.

The fact that an innocent hiker was shot and robbed near the U.S.-Mexico border in a brazen attack exposes the dire situation at the porous southern border.

This alarming incident demands immediate action to protect law-abiding citizens from the encroaching cartel violence.

The American hiker was shot twice and robbed by cartel members in the Jacumba Wilderness near the San Diego-Mexico border.

The attack occurred in the El Centro Sector, an area known for illegal border crossings and cartel activity.

This violent encounter serves as a reminder of the growing threat posed by unchecked illegal immigration and criminal organizations operating with impunity along the southern border.

The incident unfolded when two armed cartel members confronted a group of U.S. citizens.

Despite the hikers’ inability to understand Spanish, the assailants escalated the situation by firing shots into the air.

When the hikers failed to comply with their demands, one of the American citizens was shot in the leg.

A Canadian citizen, who was part of the hiking group and visiting the United States legally, also fell victim to this senseless act of violence.

While he escaped physical injury, he was robbed after staying by his wounded friend’s side.

Chief Patrol Agent Gregory K. Bovino responded to the incident by saying, “Cartels think they can bring their war here. Think again!”

The timing of this attack is particularly significant, coming shortly after President Donald Trump signed executive orders addressing the U.S.-Mexico border crisis.

These orders designated drug cartels and organized migrant gangs as foreign terrorist organizations.

They also show the urgent need for strong leadership and decisive action to secure borders and protect American citizens.

In response to this act of violence, the U.S. Border Patrol’s El Centro Sector has ramped up its presence in the area.

Specialized tactical teams, including the Border Patrol Tactical Unit (BORTAC) and expert marksmen, were deployed to saturate the region and neutralize the cartel threat.

As investigations continue to identify the specific cartel responsible for this attack, one thing remains clear: the need for a secure border has never been more pressing.

The safety and security of American citizens is a top priority for the Trump administration.

It is taking decisive action to finish the border wall and implement stringent measures to prevent criminal organizations from infiltrating the country.

This incident serves as a wake-up call to all Americans. The threat of cartel violence is no longer confined to the other side of the border – it has arrived on our doorstep.
