It released several pictures Wednesday, which purportedly show armed cartel members taunting the state\u2019s National Guard soldiers in the region.<\/p>\n<p>The cartel gunmen are seen wearing tactical vests, holding AK-rifles and appear to be well-equipped for possible confrontations. Officials said several such encounters took place over the past few days. Despite this, Texas authorities said they will continue breaking up human and drug smuggling rings run by cartels.<\/p>\n<p>Gov. Greg Abbott (R) also said Joe Biden is still refusing to visit the border or hold a meeting with GOP governors to address the matter. He went as far as to suggest that Biden is allowing drug traffickers to bring in deadly narcotics and fentanyl.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s time for the Biden administration to wake up and get on the job,\u201d stated the governor. \u201cAnd do its job to protect the sovereignty and safety of the United States of America.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Nine other governors joined me in Mission, TX to outline our 10-point plan for President Biden to end the border crisis created by his disastrous open border policies. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Woy9Qp1y0w\">https:\/\/t.co\/Woy9Qp1y0w<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Gov.
