How much drug money is the CIA and who knows what other groups making every year?
He should go for it but he will find stiff resistance on both sides.
A clear and present danger?
A lot of money to be made because of The war on drugs.
IF they truly wanted to stop it, they could.
Congress has to declare wars and many of them are on the payroll of the cartels.
RE: How much drug money is the CIA and who knows what other groups making every year?
I don’t know about the CIA. I do know that our FBI armed the drug cartels and one of these arms was used to kill our ATF officials. That was under the Obama administration.
The operation was supposed to track the movement of the weapons and thus the drug cartels. It backfired.
The operation was called FAST AND FURIOUS.
I have not seen anyone prosecuted yet.
That’s the key question here. Who in the US government profits from the drug cartel activities the most? We will see when they scream the loudest. Just look at the screamers when Trump wanted the wall. Investigate their ties to the cartels. Shut off the drugs and there will be more.
The CIA was heavily in the drug racket in SE Asia in the Vietnam era. How'd that work out?
Watch the series "Snowfall" for a hint as to how it all works.
