How Long before Mexican Cartels Set Up Their Own States in the USA?

In the desert of California, the deeply disturbing beginning stages are already underway.
A few days ago, The Daily Caller released its first investigative documentary: Cartelville USA. The film is short — only 36 minutes — and you can watch it here with a subscription or free trial. There is also an interview on the Federalist Radio Hour with the director, Jorge Ventura, which is nearly as long as the documentary itself.
In case the title doesn't give it away, the topic of Cartelville USA is a string of communities in the California desert that have been taken over by drug cartels. The cartels grow marijuana in hoop houses on land that may or may not be theirs, using slave labor and stolen water. They pack heavy weapons and gun down whoever looks too much like a rival or a threat, and they generally do as they wish.
"These drug cartels are wreaking havoc on the entire antelope valley, and nobody is talking about it," says the narrator near the beginning of the film. "This is the cartels. We are very, very close to driving down the freeway, and seeing bodies hanging from the overpasses. That is what's coming."
Ventura's disturbing look into the growing power of drug cartels on this side of the border caught my interest because it has two important political ramifications, one short-term and the other long-term. But before I discuss those in detail, a summary of what I learned from the documentary is in order.

Its not being reported in the MSM but alternative media sites are reporting that former special forces and combat veterans are down at the border engaging in firefights with the cartels in defense of some of the ranchers. Its that bad.

Let me guess nobody in D.C. is profiting off the Cartelville USA areas right.

When Biden came out with the vax mandate in September, it suddenly dawned on me that a drug cartel IS running the country right now.
These guys are small potatoes in comparison.

?The first thing required and necessary to have a prolonged never ending War on Drugs, is DRUGS. If that's the case, why the push to legalize everything of late? No, the truth is that in more and more states, the petty tyrants see "vice revenue" as the goose that lays the golden eggs...at least in the short term. But eventually, when your sources of revenue depend on drugs, alcohol, and gambling, you end up with a completely dysfunctional society. Sort of like Philadelphia right now:

Yeah, but never halcyon days like these. Trump was putting them on the ropes, restricting access & travel so bad that they commenced blasting away at each other over access to what lucrative routes were left. No doubt another part of the motivation for the coup against him. The people, the drugs and the money are now flowing across the border like never before in our history. Happy days are here again, for some more than others. The corruption on both sides of the border is now going to be harder and more dangerous to challenge than ever before.
