02 Mar 2025

Audio

Description

The Sinaloa Cartel has long been considered Mexico's most dominant criminal empire, but with the recent arrest of its legendary leader, Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, is this truly the end? Or is the cartel simply evolving and expanding beyond borders? In this deep dive, we explore: - The real reason behind El Mayo’s arrest and whether it was staged - How U.S. and Mexican authorities have historically worked with cartels - The cartel's global expansion into Europe, Asia, and beyond - The parallels between today's drug war and past U.S. policies - Why America’s crackdown on fentanyl may actually make things worse Despite government crackdowns and military intervention, drug trafficking is far from over. The Sinaloa Cartel is adapting, decentralizing, and finding new ways to operate. Will the war on drugs ever succeed, or is this just history repeating itself?
