The following is an excerpt from Judicial Watch’s Corruption Chronicles.
The situation along the southwest border has deteriorated so badly under President Joe Biden that in the last two years an Arizona county about an hour drive from Mexico has seen a breathtaking 377% increase in human smuggling and trafficking incidents and a shocking 610% rise in fentanyl pills seized by local law enforcement officers.
The Pinal County Sheriff and the president of Yuma Regional Medical Center offered the chilling information this week during a congressional hearing focusing on immigration since Biden took office.
Held by the House Homeland Security Committee, the session occurred just days after the nation heard alarming testimony form Border Patrol sector chiefs during a separate conference held by the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability.
In that hearing Rio Grande Valley Chief Gloria Chavez revealed cartels use drones to track federal agents and that in her Texas sector alone more than 10,000 drone incursions and 25,000 drone sightings occurred in a year.
“The adversaries have 17 times the number of drones, twice the amount of flight hours and unlimited funding to grow their operations,” Chavez told federal lawmakers. Tucson sector Chief John Modlin said the border crisis has gone from “what I would describe as unprecedented to a point where I don’t have the correct adjective.”
Last year his Arizona sector seized about 700 pounds of fentanyl, which is well over three million pills.
American border towns have been devastated by the illegal immigration crisis and the problem is spilling over into distant regions that typically do not see the kind of activity associated with border crimes.
The president of Yuma Regional Medical Center, Dr. Robert Trenschel, said before the congressional hearing this week that his facility is overwhelmed.
“Yuma is only a population of 100,000 people, and we’ve had 300,000 people cross the border in a year, and we’re the only hospital they go to,” Trenschel said. “So they come to us and that’s impacted our hospital significantly and disproportionately.”
The hospital chief testified that many migrants come with significant diseases that require costly treatments like dialysis, cardiac catheterization and surgery. “Many are very sick,” he said. “They have long term complications of chronic disease that have not been cared for. Some end up in the ICU for 60 days or more. One of the largest cohorts we have seen are maternity patients who present with little or no prenatal care.
Further from the Mexican border in central Arizona’s Pinal County, the area’s top law enforcement official says a high percentage of the drugs and human smuggling plaguing the U.S. pass through his jurisdiction enroute to Phoenix and the rest of the country.
The elected sheriff, Mark Lamb, testified that over the last two years human smuggling/trafficking incidents in his county have increased 377% and vehicle pursuits related to human smuggling are up 461%. “If it’s not humans being trafficked, it’s drugs,” Lamb said.
“The number of fentanyl pills my deputies have seized along this same route since 2020 is up 610%.” The veteran cop also told lawmakers that most of the migrants his agency encounters, those who got away from the Border Patrol, are being trafficked by the cartels.

“Arizona Co. has 377% surge in human smuggling; 610% increase in fentanyl under Biden and Katie Hobbs. Both Democrats as one would expect. ”
Fixed it for you.
Sharyl and Full Measure Team,
And The Plot Thickens :
Mexico and Central America are Narco-
State-Run countries, which drug-running
operations serve certain U.S.-Mobsters’
financial interests ( the Agencies ? ).
What’s never reported by U.S. MSM, is the
tens-of-thousands of Mexican citizens and
foreigners disappeared—many of whom are
tortured and murdered during Santeria-type
rites; a legacy of MayAz genetic/cultural
heritage (( Mayan/Aztec genetic legacy—
my abbreviation above )).
Why is the BRUTALITY of certain germ-lines
below our border kept hidden by Left-con-
trolled MSM ? Why hide the pirated videos
of those gruesome tortures/rituals, by Santeria
-driven Cartels, from our U.S. citizenry ?
Tourism ?
Death of once-Christian America ?
It’s all profit-driven !
Anyone for re-installing
the Ten Commandments
in our public squares
and classrooms—stupidly
removed by the American
Communist Lawyers Union
( ACLU ) ?
