Urgent warning: Battles erupting in Mexico after Mexican forces killed CJNG leader “El Mencho” (Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes) on Feb 22, 2026. Cartel retaliation: Roadblocks, burning vehicles, sieges in Puerto Vallarta/Guadalajara/Jalisco—tourists sheltering, U.S. citizens warned in major cities. Footage from X shows the chaos—highways blocked, explosions, families running. For preppers near the border (like us in Midland, TX): Heightened risks of spillover (drugs/violence), travel disruptions, economic ripples. No panic—use Defensive Preparedness to layer awareness: Monitor news, secure borders/home, have go-bags ready. What’s your border prep plan? Comment below!
