And a few months ago, the US government permitted 17 members of El Chapo's family/Sinaloa cartel to enter the US. The suggestion is that the deceased El Chapo's brother is cooperating. The Honduran ex-President (pardoned, so still a convicted criminal) had been corrupted by El Chapo to move cocaine into the US. Is this a return favour? I would be keen to understand what is the justification for allowing 17 hardened criminals into the US.

 

Life imitating Art. In the novel "Clear and Present Danger", a fictional President, chasing headlines and votes, orders covert, but illegal military operations, to erode the power of the cartels, culminating in an air attack on a villa resulting in numerous collateral  causualties. The leader of one of the cartels escapes unscathed. In order to keep the operation a secret, the CIA comes to an agreement with the right hand man of the Cartel leader to reveal the locations of the American special forces , in return for the elimination of the cartel head, whereupon the deputy assumes control, and controls the exports of narcotics into the US, allowing for some well publicised seizures to maintain appearances.

 

 

 

The Venezuelans probably don't have family members living in south Florida, and who have enough money from drug dealing to buy a membership at Mar-a-Lago.

 

The Honduran President is financially elite, as is his family. Wealth erases a multitude of sins.

 

It's kind of like being buddy-buddy with a Prince who ordered the killing and mutilation of a US Person and journalist for WaPo....if your company has 3 major projects planned for the Prince's country, all is forgiven.

 

Oh, and like if you launder money via crypto, even for Hamas, you're a good guy if your company does business with World Liberty Financial, owned by the Trump family.

 

A man's gotta eat after his term ends, you know? Got to fill the coffers while you can.
