Episode Highlights:Media Myths & DOGE Truths:We expose the media's desperate attempts to generate stories claiming that DOGE is cutting jobs and hurting Americans. Spoiler alert: most of these stories aren't true. Mark argues that when the media tries to undermine government accountability, they're also undercutting their own credibility. Case in point: The Albuquerque Journal recently ran a Facebook ads soliciting DOGE disaster stories—they didn't exactly find a treasure trove!Laughing at Media Meltdowns:We share a hilarious segment about a locksmith fired at a national park, and we joke about whether anyone locked in a bathroom at that park is now doomed. Sometimes, the jokes write themselves!Government vs. Mexican Drug Cartels & Maine Confrontation:We break down the government's aggressive efforts to dismantle Mexican drug cartels and delve into Trump's latest confrontation with the Governor of Maine. Mark explains how Trump consistently wins on 80/20 issues—while Democrats stubbornly defend the losing 20%. A long-time Democratic pollster even agrees with his take.Tariff Talk with Marco Rubio:Don't miss Marco Rubio's detailed explanation of tariffs—a must-hear segment that adds yet another layer to the discussion on how policies are shaping our nation.A Heart-Wrenching Call for Help:We close the episode with an emotional story about an Albuquerque family of missionaries who desperately need your help.

The extremely wealthy and powerful drug cartels in Mexico operate with near-impunity, perpetuating violent crime and terrorizing Mexican citizens. But they also bring pain and suffering to the United States by importing massive amounts of fentanyl, fueling the deadly opioid epidemic. Drug lords saw an opening after the U.S. government finally stepped in to stop the flow of prescription opioids created by the pharmaceutical industry. A ready-made market of addicted people just over the border provided incentive, and fentanyl was cheaper and easier to produce than other drugs. Anabel Hernandez, a Mexican journalist who's covered the cartels for more than two decades, joins former assistant U.S. attorney Sherri Hobson for today's talk from the 2024 Aspen Ideas Festival in June. Hobson went after traffickers on the border from the San Diego office for 30 years and prosecuted hundreds of smugglers. The two break down the timeline of the fentanyl crisis and share the insider information they spent years building up from either side of the border. Reuters editor in chief Alessandra Galloni moderates the conversation. aspenideas.org

The Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) is one of Mexico's most powerful and ruthless drug trafficking organizations. It emerged in the early 2010s and quickly rose to prominence due to its violent tactics and strategic alliances.Origins and Leadership: The CJNG was founded by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, also known as "El Mencho," a former member of the Milenio Cartel. El Mencho assumed leadership of the organization after the capture of its previous leader, Ignacio Coronel Villarreal, by Mexican authorities in 2010.Expansion and Operations: The CJNG has expanded rapidly, establishing itself as a dominant force in the Mexican drug trade. It primarily operates in the western state of Jalisco but has expanded its influence throughout Mexico and internationally, including the United States, Europe, and South America. The cartel is involved in the trafficking of various illicit drugs, including methamphetamine, cocaine, heroin, and fentanyl.Violence and Tactics: The CJNG is notorious for its extreme violence and brutality. The cartel has been responsible for numerous homicides, mass killings, and acts of intimidation against rival cartels, law enforcement officials, and civilians. Its tactics include beheadings, dismemberments, and public displays of violence intended to instill fear and assert control over territory.Alliances and Conflicts: The CJNG has formed strategic alliances with other criminal organizations, including factions of the Sinaloa Cartel and the Beltrán Leyva Organization, to expand its influence and strengthen its operations. However, it has also engaged in violent conflicts with rival cartels, such as the Gulf Cartel, Los Zetas, and the Michoacán-based Knights Templar Cartel.Rumors of Cannibalism: There have been persistent rumors and unverified reports suggesting that the CJNG engages in cannibalism as part of its intimidation tactics and rituals. These rumors often stem from gruesome videos and images circulated on social media, purportedly showing cartel members consuming human flesh. However, due to the secretive nature of cartel activities and the lack of credible evidence, it is challenging to confirm the veracity of these claims.The Mexican Drug Cartels are notorious for their inhumane behavior and treatment of their rivals but none more so than the CJNG who have taken to making their initiates engage in cannibalism. In this episode, we take a look at the morbid practice and how it is gaining traction as an intimidation tool with the cartels in Mexico. (Commercial at 9:36)To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comSource:https://www.thedailybeast.com/these-cartel-terror-schools-in-mexico-give-cannibalism-exams-failure-is-not-an-option?ref=scroll

While the Appellate Court did uphold Judge Chutkan's gag order against Trump, Julie Kelly says they stripped away major sections. The three judge panel ruled that Jack Smith was a public servant and a public figure and along with the DOJ and the Judge, are subjected to public criticism of their work. But this J6 trial is on hold until the issue of Presidential immunity is resolved. Kelly says the 5-4 Supreme Court decision against Texas speaks to the frustration of Conservatives, that we can't depend on the Supreme Court. This goes back to their failure to address any of the election lawsuits filed in 2020 or 2021.Tom Homan, former Trump Director of ICE, asks when we get 300 people on the terrorist watch list at our southern border, when we have 112,000 dead Americans from fentanyl, when there are 1,700 dead migrants on U.S. soil, when we have a 600% increase in child and female sex trafficking across the border, when is its time to shut it down? Homan says the Mexican Drug Cartels have operational control of our southern border. They decide what comes in, who comes in, and when it comes in. The criminal cartels have this operational control because the Biden Administration gave it to them. And he says no one celebrated the 2020 election more than the Mexican Drug Cartels based on Joe Biden's campaign promises. They knew they were back in business. Biden has not held China accountable for the precursors they send to Mexico to make fentanyl. Homan says Trump will hold both China and Mexico accountable. This administration has done nothing to slow down the flow of fentanyl. Last month, Homan says every single uniformed officer in several sectors were pulled off the line to process border crossers. You don't think the Cartels had a field day with that? If they don't impeach Mayorkas, Homan says something's very wrong.

Fentanyl use and overdose deaths have long plagued the United States, but now Mexico is seeing a spike in overdoses from this potent opioid, with communities along the US-Mexico border being hit particularly hard. While the Mexican government still denies opioid use as a problem, those who suffer from addiction are facing stigma and a lack of public health support. The big question is: what's being done to tackle the issue in Mexico?

The Gulf Cartel later apologized and said the kidnappers had acted on their own, and they were turning them over to authorities. The kidnappings and murders have led the United States to evaluate their current relationship with Mexico and how much the cartels control Mexico, in an effort to get fentanyl and other illegal drugs into the United States. Overdose deaths killed 100,000 Americans last year. Is it time the United States take a stronger stance against the drug cartels and treat them like an enemy?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
