Democrats Are Working For Mexican Drug Cartels, MS-13, and Other Criminal Gangs


The Arizona cattle rancher in the film clip talked about how ranchers on the Mexico side of the border have it worse than the ranchers on the American side. The reason is that the Mexican ranchers have to leave home after dark or face the consequences of possibly being killed by the Cartels, MS-13, or some other criminal gangs. And no, the Mexican Government is not protecting them.

I recently talked with friends in Arizona and Texas who told me that the Cartels and the gangs controlled the border. When I asked them each if they thought the Cartels controlled the Mexican Government? Their answers were all the same. 

The consensus is that the Cartels and the gangs like MS-13 control the Mexican Government because the Mexican Government is so horribly corrupt that the criminals have a free rein down there. And what's worse is that the Mexican politicians who are not corrupt are frightened to act too boldly out of fear that their families will be killed. 

Since the Cartels, MS-13, and other criminal gangs, the drug runners and child sex traffickers, are controlling the Mexican Government by way of payoffs and threats, why isn't anyone doing something about it? My friends on the border all believed that's the case, but the corruption is too big to stop. 

So, how can the Cartels, MS-13, and other gangs exert such control on the Mexican Government? Well, the answer is by doing the same thing they are doing here in the United States, by controlling corrupt politicians. and yes, almost all of my friends asked me if I didn't think it was happening here on this side of the border? 

One of my friends on the border put it this way. He said, "Think about it? Are Democrats working for the Cartels, MS-13, and other gangs? From helping drugs pour across the border to helping child sex traffickers, it's not a stretch to ask if Democrats are working for them? I think they are.

After all, look at how Democrats fought to stop President Trump from building the wall during Trump's first term. Look at how the Democrats fought to keep the border open for four years during the Biden. Look at who the Democrats were fine with allowing into our country. Look at what Democrats are doing these days? 

We need to investigate Democrats since they must be taking huge bribes, kickbacks, or other forms of campaign contributions from the Cartels, MS-13, and other criminal gangs. If not, then why were  Democrats okay with the Biden administration allowing illegal aliens to simply walk in? Democrats knew about illegal alien gang members and members of the Cartels, who were being flown into cities and towns in the United States by the Biden administration. Why were they okay with that?

They did nothing about it. Democrats allowed the Drug Cartels, the child-sex traffickers, MS-13, and other criminal gangs to come here with those 'illegal immigrants.' And Democrats allowed MS-13 and other gangs to get a foothold in American cities and towns. They not only allowed it to happen, they helped MS-13 set up shop and grow more powerful. Just as they are still doing today. Nothing's changed. 

So what's the difference between corrupt American Democrats getting paid by the Mexican Drug Cartels, MS-13, and other gangs, versus corrupt Mexican Government officials? Nothing. They are both working for the Cartels and MS-13. 

If you don't think so, ask yourself what other reason there could be for Democrats being so adamant about defending MS-13 gang members from being deported? Why are Democrats demanding the release of such heinous criminals? From sales and distribution of drugs, to child-sex trafficking, from home invasions, to outright murder, Democrats are defending those criminals and trying to get their sentences reduced, getting their bail reduced, getting their charges dropped, or putting pressure on the police not to charge them at all. 

Ask yourself, why would Democrats go 'Judge Shopping' to find corrupt Liberal Judges to issue orders to try to stop Donald Trump from deporting criminals? Those Democrat Party-controlled judges are also being paid off and working for the Cartels and MS-13. 

If not, explain why the Democrats are fighting for criminals who are not American citizens and are here illegally. Why would Democrats do that if they weren't as corrupt as the Mexican Politicians who do the exact same things? 

Why would Democrats do what they're doing if they weren't being paid off, getting payoffs, getting bribes and kickbacks, and taking cash from the Cartels and MS-13 and these other gangs?"

In all honesty, I think he's right. I believe Democrats are working for the Mexican Drug Cartels, the Child-Sex Traffickers, and criminal gangs like MS-13. Why else would Democrats fight for those animals as hard as they are -- if they weren't working for them? 

Yes, I agree with my friends on the border who see the problem and the corruption firsthand. I agree, Democrats must be lining their pockets with the cash they are getting. If not, they why are they refusing to be persuaded or to change their mind and join the rest of America in deporting those criminals? 

Frankly speaking, there's absolutely no other reason why anyone would be fighting to keep MS-13 members in the United States -- if it wasn't in their interest to do so. No, no other reason at all.

Gold, Arsenic, & The El Dorado Death Spring


The information that I find in old newspaper archives sometimes surprises me. It's those times, like now with the news story below from 1855, that make me shake my head in disbelief. 

I found this in the Georgetown News, Volume 1, Number 41,  July 26, 1855,

El Dorado Death Spring.

This name is given to a spring in this county by the Placerville American [newspaper]. Its waters are said to flow from a bed of arsenic. That paper says: 

“Col. Henderson, County Surveyor of El Dorado, and a resident of our city, has in his possession a specimen of auriferous ore of Arsenic, which he will show to anyone interested in the development of the mineral wealth of El Dorado County. 

This specimen has a bright silvery appearance, with particles of gold mixed; the bulk of the specimen, however, is the bright ore of Arsenic. One specimen carefully analyzed yielded eight dollars of pure gold to the single ft. of ore, while numerous specimens yielded $3.60 of gold to the pound. 

"But the most striking feature of it all is the vastness of the deposit. We are assured by Col. Henderson that it is thirty feet thick (we use no figures in this, that our readers may not mistake us) and crops out above the surface of the ground. We would not convey the impression that all of this vast deposit contains gold, but that there are veins in it, exceedingly rich. 

“Col. Henderson, like a sensible man, keeps the matter of locality entirely to himself, considering that his fortune is there, waiting only an opportunity for its development. Here, then, is a field for the capitalist; a bed of auriferous ore of Arsenic thirty feet thick, and of unknown extent. Is it surprising then, that gold miners upon the placers in that vicinity, at an early day, drinking the sweet arsenical waters, should be seized with fevers, and a burning thirst, which from day to day increased until their graves marked the spot of their sojourn?”

I was very surprised to find out that gold is frequently found with arsenic. After doing a little research, I found out that arsenic has the ability to stabilize gold within the structure of these minerals. Arsenic actually plays a crucial role in the formation of gold deposits by allowing gold to penetrate mineral structures and stabilize within them.

According to research by geochemists, gold and arsenic are often found together in gold deposits, and their bond is due to an atomic-scale attraction between the two elements. The structure of certain minerals helps facilitate this attraction, effectively concentrating gold within those minerals.

Gold is often found with iron and arsenic-containing minerals like pyrite and arsenopyrite. These minerals act like sponges, concentrating gold levels significantly higher than in other geological contexts. So, yes, it's said that the presence of arsenic can be an indicator of potential gold deposits. And yes, that means higher arsenic concentrations suggest higher gold deposits. 

Of course, while arsenic is often found in gold deposits and is a common byproduct of gold mining, especially in the 1800s, it's not directly used in the gold extraction process itself. But arsenic is a significant component of the ores and can be released into the environment during mining activities.

Imagine that!
