This is like an economic stimulus package for the cartels.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Paxton noted to host John Bachman, the Mexican drug cartels have managed to capitalize financially on President Joe Biden&#8217;s restoring of catch and release and the blocking of border agents from enforcing U.S. immigration law.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No doubt, the Biden administration&#8217;s policies benefit one group primarily, and that&#8217;s the cartels,&#8221;&nbsp;Paxton said. &#8220;And the cartels are making massive profits from this policy change from Trump to Biden.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And they did it initially by charging people to come to this country, so they&#8217;re trafficking people and they&#8217;re making \u2013 at least in the Laredo area \u2013 about $8,000 per person.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And it creates a tremendous incentive for them to want to bring people to this country.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And, as the cartels aid migrants to illegally cross the border, including unaccompanied minors,&nbsp;they also gain the benefit of a distraction to further&nbsp;their largest money-making endeavor, Paxton added: drugs.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That is going to affect the entire country,&#8221; Paxton warned. &#8220;This is not just a Texas problem. This is not just a border problem. It&#8217;s coming to America. It&#8217;s coming to your town.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The cartels also &#8220;track&#8221; their clients in the U.S. for other criminal enterprises, Paxton said, lamenting the problems had subsided under former President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;President Trump did an amazing job on the border,&#8221; he concluded. &#8220;We have never had a president that corrected our problem in a better way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span><strong>Note:<\/strong><\/span> See <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsmaxtv.com\/\"><span>Newsmax TV<\/span><\/a> now carried in more than 100 million U.S. homes, on <strong>DirecTV<\/strong> Ch. 349, <strong>Dish Network <\/strong>Ch. 216, <strong>Xfinity<\/strong> Ch. 1115, <strong>Spectrum, U-verse<\/strong> Ch. 1220, <strong>FiOS<\/strong> Ch. 615, <strong>Frontier<\/strong> Ch. 115, <strong>Optimum<\/strong> Ch. 102, <strong>Cox cable, Suddenlink<\/strong> Ch. 102, <strong>Mediacom<\/strong> Ch. 277, <strong>AT&amp;T TV<\/strong> Ch 349, <strong>FUBO<\/strong> and major OTT platforms like <strong>Roku<\/strong>, YouTube, Xumo, Pluto and most smart TV\u2019s including <strong>Samsung+<\/strong>, Sony, LG, Vizio and more \u2013 <strong>Find All Systems that Carry Newsmax \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsmaxtv.com\/findus\"><span>Click Here<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watching the Biden administration&#8217;s crisis at the border unfold in his state,\u00a0Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Newsmax\u00a0called the return of the failed Obama administration open-border policies &#8220;an economic stimulus &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1896434,"comment_status":"close","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-541620","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/541620","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=541620"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/541620\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1896434"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=541620"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=541620"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=541620"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
