American flight attendants caught in cartel drug scheme | NewsNation Now 

Are we really surprised by this? Cartels have their dirty paws all up in the air travel business.

I love that he snuck in a little argument about how everyone having private, secure communications isn’t worth it if they can’t figure out a way to stop cartels. “We need to trample your freedom to win an unnecessary, mishandled drug war!”

If they can smuggle kilos into cargo, they can smuggle an explosive.

Any actual grownups still around on this planet?

How far is the cartel in this gov

Why hasn’t TSA been doing their job? You don’t let anyone just blindly walk through security. Familiar faces or a uniform isn’t an excuse to bypass procedure.

In the late 90's, my buddy who worked for Immigration in Miami was checking the bathrooms on the secured side of a concourse where international flights arrived and found a locked stall with no one in it. Upon further inspection he found a briefcase locked in the stall which contained cocaine. He said he remembered passing a pilot walking from that area, but he couldn't not say if it was him who left the drugs there. He informed his counterparts in Customs who dealt with the drugs.

😮 this is a serious issue😮.

By air? Well, at least 90% by sea.

Why have enhanced security for flight crew at all? Operates on the false assumption that they are more honest than the rest.

You can tell he is from NY basically yelling in the 🎤

10% for the big guy

Jackie Brown!

Life in prison.

Jail for life. We have known for years drugs fly out of CDMX airport to the USA. Crimes must be punish to the fullest or you're going to end like Mexico.

Any American partaking in this is just despicable.I know how hard things are financially for many people.But I'd rather be poor and scraped by with nothing.Than to sell my soul and be part of something like that

Well with the cost of living now what do you expect

No surprise. Our own government used to do this as well. Who knows, maybe they still do.

Sounds like the Sopranos.

Wow, several problems with this reporting. First, though, I'm surprised this "former DEA agent" can't pronounce the word fentanyl. He should have been around it enough to know how to say the word correctly. This "journalist" asking how safe is it with employees being able to bring things on to airports and airplanes. The airlines alone employ more than 800,000 people in the US. The aviation industry employs more than 87 million people world wide. So, taking these numbers into account, how many of these stories have you heard regarding employees getting caught trafficking? Just like when there is a crash, because it is so unusual, it makes headline news. And of course, the media have to go after ratings. Lastly, and surprisingly NOT mentioned by this former agent, airline employees do not always have a choice in the matter. These cartels find out all of the information about these employees, where they live, where their kids go to school, in order to blackmail them into helping them. If the employee does not help, they threaten their families. Thanks for researching the story, NewsNation, way to do your due diligence. But you're getting views, so who cares, right?

the old DEA director can't even pronounce Fentanyl should tell u a lot....

ill take some of that money!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Can’t catch us here in Cleveland.

Never realized professor Xavier hosted the news

Flight attendants make no money. If we want to stop this everyone needs to make a decent wage. Morals need to come back.

😮 really?

This is what the tsa is.

oh dear..

Couldn't you interview someone who doesn't shout? This is obnoxious.

No thank you.

Drugs and money I understand but no airline employee is trying to bring explosives on a plane to hurt people. Yes drugs harm and kill way more than a bomb but that’s unseen to the employee.

Why don't just STOP BUYING IT!!, if people stop consuming drugs it will just be over, it helps save funds and redirects resources, and more guilt is for the buyer, not the seller.

There's going to be shouting.

From 2 diffrent big major bank experience.... banks and bankers just look the other way

Looks like it's the americans you have to worry about more than the cartel.

Dogs for everyone!

😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫🤦

OMG! Legalize & Regulate Already!

Of coarse they are.

And our Federal Government went and had a meeting with the President of Mexico and US said they would help the Sinaola Cartel there were too many cartels and help eliminate their competition and help control of how much drugs will get into the country instead of too much from different distributors, let's make it one distributor and you have FEDERAL GOVERNMENT and WHITE HOUSE APPROVAL. Now planes are suddenly dropping out of the sky, can't help if some employees have family in the cartels wanting revenge, or is it just plain old greed and cover up and Chinese Parts are much, much cheaper and then the profits of the drug transporting, it's more and more, and don't forget the paid hits of people WHO could testify all in one stone throw's away.

Americans are buying this stuff.. not anybody else 😂🇺🇲

Same ol tricks since the 70s

As we all know, in China, the attitude of most people towards drug problems is simple and rough, that is, "one size fits all", and there is no tolerance or tolerance. In the United States, where drugs are rampant, the mindset is different. Many people think that drug addicts are also "victims." In the eyes of the American people, most people did not have drug addiction before, but came to the big city with dreams, were hit by the ruthless reality, were excluded by the mainstream society, and their dreams were shattered one after another, and they could only struggle in the harsh living environment. In order to escape the trauma caused by homelessness, they chose alcohol and drugs. It was the cruel social environment in the United States that led these people to a road of no return.

her bald head is so Distracting

Now I ain’t saying it’s remotely worth it.. but in this economy, and COL far outpacing wages, if someone were to be like “Hey get these packages through security @ $500 per package..,” I’d def for a few second be like 🤔. lol

The love of money is the root of all evil. (I Timothy 6:10).

I’m tired of saving everyone’s life I’m retiring aswell. God bless America and the national guard central intelligence club willing to risk lives for the future

Or it can be Greed. Lovers of Money.
