Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum is asking Americans to believe the impossible: that her government knows absolutely nothing about the cartel drones brazenly flying into U.S. airspace from Mexican territory.
In a stunning display of either incompetence or willful ignorance, Sheinbaum revealed she has received zero information about the drone operations that have become a nightmare for American border communities. The admission comes as drug cartels increasingly use sophisticated drone technology to smuggle fentanyl, conduct surveillance on Border Patrol operations, and intimidate American citizens.
Mexico's Convenient Blindness
How exactly does a nation's president remain completely unaware of military-grade drone operations launching from her own soil? Either Mexico's intelligence apparatus is laughably inept, or Sheinbaum is playing dumb while cartels operate with impunity just miles from American families.
This revelation exposes the brutal reality that President Trump inherited: Mexico has been either unwilling or unable to control the criminal organizations terrorizing both sides of the border. While American communities suffer from cartel violence and drug trafficking, Mexican officials shrug their shoulders and claim ignorance.
"The cartels have better intelligence than the Mexican government—or Mexico simply doesn't want to stop them," one border security expert noted.
These aren't toy drones flown by hobbyists. Cartels are deploying sophisticated aircraft capable of carrying substantial drug payloads, conducting reconnaissance missions, and even dropping explosive devices. The fact that Mexico's president claims zero knowledge of these operations is either a damning indictment of her government's capabilities or proof of deliberate non-cooperation.
Trump's Border Mission More Critical Than Ever
This Mexican finger-pointing perfectly illustrates why President Trump's mass deportation and border security initiatives are absolutely essential. If Mexico won't—or can't—control criminal operations on their side of the border, America must take decisive action to protect our sovereignty.
While Sheinbaum plays the ignorance card, American families are paying the price. How long will Mexico continue this charade of plausible deniability while cartels wage war on American soil?
