WATCH NOW - "Public Didn't Know" Is the NYPD's AI Secretly Tracking You? The New Face of Predator Hunting - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-x1mfGMU8l3U.html
Biden and associates have been using New Generation to smuggle Ukraine cash shipments back into the US. Through these shipments they are also getting Ukraine weapons.
For real. They’re always talking about how fentanyl is such a problem if they really wanted to they could demolish that substance overnight. Why would they do that, population control, and the feds are lining their pockets with that money
I very much appreciate the content you put out, but fixating on cjng when the kings are literally taking over some of our largest cities as if they are truly funded by a military is a little ummm yeah just fill in the blank
Cartels on Mexico would not be as powerfull as they are, if CIA and US government had never allowed their military companies to sell them what they sell. Mexico does not produce the kind of equipment you see on CJNG.
yes CIA and US government provides biggest facility of black market all around the world and these cartels are nothing you don't know what they have done in iraq and afghanistan
@@TRAVIESO_NADude they literally have 60k thermals and use ONLY armor piercing ammunition, and that's not even talking about the stuff they are hiding for bigger fights
Some of their guns were obtained from the US. A good portion were obtained from the black market and corrupt elements from CEDENA. I doubt the ATF allows miniguns to leave our country knowing cartels will obtain them.
Hey, this is the interviewee on this podcast. Mencho was indeed a cop very briefly, for about a year, in Jalisco before joining back up with the Valencias. It’s actually a part of his life we don’t know much about and it seems to have been mostly for him to learn the insides of how police worked. It’s mentioned in my book but it’s not a major part of his life.
Been happening before Obama or Biden 😂.Americans having plugs in Mexico for contraband can be traced back to the Lucy Luciano days the start of the five Familias in the US
I have lived in Jalisco and have some personal experience with these people. They are absolutely real and very dangerous, and should be taken seriously.
No doubt. What role do they play now? Do they still portray themselves as public servants or they still predators to innocent civilians, especially women and children?
@@yisusmg7794 I find that hard to believe. It’s documented they’ve done horrendous things to innocents, especially those who are just family or friends of targeted individuals. Even children at one point.
Hey everyone, RU-vid has been censoring our content lately. To help spread the word and bring more attention to these important conversations, please remember to give us a thumbs up, leave a comment, and share with a friend or family member. Your support means a lot!
A little note about the "not a Javelin missile" that the cartel was photographed with. A) It wasn't an Javelin it was an AT-4 tube. B) The AT-4 is a single use missile with a disposable tube, they had a perfectly legal and harmless empty aluminium tube.
Mexicans have a very "macho" attitude towards life, a boss that "runs to hide" abroad while war is being fought is not respected, and an underboss might as well take over. Our politicians are like that, and Mexican people are sick about it, a coward "drug/war lord" is not a good warlord.
lol, he's supposed to be the expert and doesn't even mention the CIA involvement and the gun runners, the mossad training. what the hell man, please bring Ed Calderon he'll blow your collective minds.
Ed Calderon is a PIMP...He was a cop in Tijuana for about as long as "A CUP OF COFFEE"...He did a video on the other side of the wall at Tijuana and was obviously scared shitless and wanted to get back into California...All he does is state the obvious and rehash what all Americans know about the cartels... YOU want the real deal... Look at HECTOR BERRELLEZ...He is "THE REAL DEAL"...a DEA Agent who along with Kiki Camarena infiltrated the Mexico cartels... Hector as an undercover agent took down the major cartels in Guadalajara among others...and has a reward on his head for his penetration of the cartels... When you listen to BERRELLEZ you will see that Calderon is an "IMPOSTER" who poses holding guns in front of his home mirror and knows as much about cartels as you as I...Bottom Line...Ed Calderon is a "BURRO ENZAPATADO"...Just Sayin🤔
Im a white guy from new york but i think mexico is a beautiful country the food is probably the best and the people are mostly very hard workers and they sure know how to party.i would love to go visit mexico one day and learn to speak the language.shout out to any mexicans here!!!!!
I live an hour and half from Tijuana Mexico and surfed there and partied there for years. It used to be that you could go and camp out there at surf breaks and sleep like a baby. Not anymore. TJ is one of the most dangerous places you could be in. The cartel’s actions have made the place a disaster. Poverty was always a thing, but now it’s compounded by danger and violence.
@@dontbugme7362 yeah its no joke.i remember when my sister lived in San Diego I used to be able to see the mountains of Tijuana I unfortunately have seen some videos from cjng and Los zetas and yeah its very very bad.
@@chuckweber542 We used to cruise down there on the regular, party at Rosarita Hotel and sleep on the cliffs. 15 years ago I took my family for a weekend down to K55 for surf and shopping, coming back thru Rosarita a road side guard was carrying a beltfed machine gun. That's the last time I went. My wife's friend had his husband kidnapped in Mexico City and ransomed for $1,000,000. After MONTHS they settled for $50,00 and let him go. NO MAS!
RU-vid censored a lady's channel of her farming of sheep and cash crop. They flagged her when she went to tend to a sheep in labor which she was a few weeks early. She had triplets. Still born. She started her channel to keep diary of the sheep. Each lambing time, so she could see what happened during each lambing. Censoring a sheep farm is weird
As a Mexican-American, I’ve NEVER heard “mencho” used, so to go so far as to say it means, “hick”… idk man my family is from Michoacán and I know how they talk. Never called anyone a “mencho”. We might call them “chuntaro/chuntara”, which is like a Mexican who dresses and speaks as old school Mexican as they can, almost to an uneducated level. Mencho likely comes from a child trying to pronounce Nemesio, as many Mexican nicknames are. This guy is Portuguese… sure maybe he’s done some research but he didn’t mention anything about mencho being a former cop or doing time in the US and the story behind that
It was an operation from Cia or atf don't remember where thousands of gun were secretly tracked by GPS devices for tracking and catching those who were supposed to have these guns.. So cartels... Finally they were aware about this turned down the devices and kept the gun... Military grade guns @@freedomforever1962
Crazy what El Cholo did and what Mencho did to him. Torture for 2 or 3 days gouging out eyes and pulling his tongue out with pliers. When they really want you, they use doctors to keep you conscious. 😬
@@victoruchiha4550 this was some months ago. el cholo was a like a top dude in menchos ranks and el cholo basically betrayed mencho by breaking away from mencho and his crew and taking some of the guys with him to form his own crew and then they took over a plaza that mencho controlled. mencho didnt like this and had him captured. mencho himself attended cholos brutal torture. his faced look like a smashed tomatoe after they were done. there is no video on it though. if there is, i never seen it.
Mencho is not hiding lol. buddys on dialysis, he built a personal hospital and its not that hard to figure where he's at, plus wait till in 20yrs usa continues decalisifying documents and yall find out hes a cia asset. Remember who trained the zetas? Well cjng started as mata zetas but now have made peace with some older zeta factions, nonetheless trained and helped to operate by the same letter agencies .
Hyper-militarized and hyper-violent.If the government and police/army struggle to get a hold of them I doubt if any outsiders would dare muscle in on the drug trade in Mexico.Maybe that's why the Russians and Albanians stay away unless they have permission to do business there.
This guy knows a good amount but there’s many levels to the amount of knowledge and information you can learn about the Cartels and the origins and what they have been involved and what they are involved in at the moment. Getting into the individual cartels and the individual bosses is a whole other level of information because there are so many and constantly changing. The origins though which he got somewhat right but not completely. The Cartels started back during prohibition by being bootleggers and taking advantage of prohibition. That means just like he said, the success and opportunities for the Cartels always originated with the demands from Americans.
Thank you! This fills in several gaps in my understanding. Your guest's somewhat humanist worldview is welcome and essential. People connected to drugs on either side of the border have become the last minority (if that) who can still be hated on and discriminated against with impunity. The general public clings to 20th century stereotypes and (thanks in part to failed health education in schools) deep misconceptions about the causes, nature, and solutions in this public health and security catastrophe. U.S. spending on illegal drugs will likely exceed an incredible one trillion USD during the 4-year term of office of our next president. That's how much we've spent on federal drug enforcement over the 50 years of the drug war. No force on the planet can stand against that kind of consumer demand, and it isn't going anywhere for a generation at least. The problem isn't so much that Americans are big drug users. It's that we're willing and able to fund the cartels' extortionate, 12-figure annual drug profits, which are a reflection of, and only made possible by, U.S. policy.
There are lots of Mexicans that are cartel fanboys. That’s another thing people don’t want to talk about because they can’t just point the finger at the US or the Mexican government for everything. Just look at all the Narco culture. Corridos, shows, style.
Corridos are just guitar and acordeón ballads they’ve been a part of Mexico forever as well as the style of dressing, you’re strongly over generalizing and I can tell you are unfamiliar with Mexican culture generally, Marco culture is basically the movies and shows funded by Hollywood and Netflix to paint you a picture of the bad in Mexico so I understand where you’re coming from as for the lifestyle as we all know is basically just drugs guns and brutality and that’s definitely not most Mexicans just because we play ballads and dress like cowboys, the cowboy culture and way of dressing has always been a Mexican culture for centuries but that doesn’t make most Mexicans cartels so take it down a few notches and educate yourself, you may have misinterpreted and generalized millions based off of shows movies besides the obvios fact that there is a criminal problem which should have been you’re main focus if you didn’t focus so much on ignorantly calling every Mexican a cartel, it’s pathetic stop it.
Cartels control their media. If a music group talks smack they kill them. The original mafia culture they looked up to were the old italian mob movies. So . . .
And theres WAY more US citizen poor little victim ADDICTS that dont want to talk about their role in making ALL of this possible(supply and demand) because its easier to point the finger at ANYONE else(in this case its Mexico) for EVERYTHING. Just look at the DRUG ADDICT CULTURE! Addicts, overdosing, dirtbag style.
That doesn't make them powerful you fool. Is the armament through the ATF, CIA and other government entities that give them weapons and money as well as transportation such as that CIA plane that crashed carrying loads of coke. The Ameeican junkies.
Never heard of IRON clad, and I'm Skeptical on who i listen too sometimes. Yet i Immediately saw this SEC kit set up for and was like.... mmkkkayyy ill listen. Cant believe i been missing out on this Channel!! Thanks again Ed for another good find. Watched his interview and then this one.
Los Zetas was one of the most violent and powerful drug cartel too once and they fell from their power. This can happen to any cartels. If CJNG were to fall, some other cartels would rise to take its place. This never ending cycle is the biggest problem there. How do you prevent next organization from replacing the old one, once old one collapses?
As one cartel "foot soldier" said. "We're only as big as the government allows us to be" And they went on to say that at times they make peace or cooperate with other cartels and sometimes with the military themselves. One even said that if they have issues in a certain area, they'll just add the police to their payroll.
Another documentary literally showed province governor give police uniforms to cartel. I'll post a link here when I find it in my history. So explains that government and cartels are one in most profitable areas.
I love visiting Mexico (which I do a lot as I live in SoCal) and I hope to move there in a few years. If you stay away from shady shit, you’ll be fine. That’s not to say you can’t be in the wrong place at the wrong time, but that’s everywhere.
Yeah I live in North Alabama. I was like no, not at all. I was like what the hell is he talking about. This guy sounds more like a Brit with a bit of a Portuguese accent. He doesn't even sound American at all.
I believe that it’s due to Americans and Europeans in general distaste for natural remedies. Most of the world consumes drugs daily. Usually these are natural substances such as coca leaves, kratom, betel nut, etc… Meanwhile Americans get through their days using prescription rugs and ilegal ones.
And when will you cover the American Cartels? The Mexican Cartels obviously have partners within the USA. It's time to change the focus to the distributors...the American Cartels.
@@RAWEKAM Effed up street people are a tiny minority of U.S. drug users. If you look at the spending numbers, the majority have to be employed with plentyof disposable income. Meth and, to a lesser extent, opioids shouldn't be categorized as 'recreational' drugs. Used with some basic caution, they are primarily performance enhancers suitable for the workplace. Most users aren't recognizable as such. Unfortunately, they're also addictive; the problems usually occur when the money to buy them at extortionate cartel prices runs out.
@@solipsist3949 Oh 100%, Notice I said the *consumers. I threw in the nodding out because you don't at all, in fact, see any of that in Mexico. Simply pointing out the United States issues, Mexico has its fair share as well being ignored, while they supposedly police the world. People like to blame immigration or immigrants, but in all reality the problem stems from what you described. I've lived in the United States all my life and I have yet to see the incremental installments of government do anything that benefits us. It has only become more centralized and given more power/money. Your thoughts?
Also, stop using oil, stop eating avocados, going on vacation, using medical supplies, buying cars… they have their fingers in ALL of it. Drugs are only a part of their business dealings.
His nickname is based on his name. Just like we sometimes call someone named Richard "Dick" or "Richie". Mencho comes from Nemecio. Like "Nacho" comes from Ignacio. Although the "country bumpkin" reference may be true, I personally have never heard "mencho" used in reference to such a person.
Of course it has…..what isn’t a threat to national security…..pretty much any reason is a great reason to give the military industrial complex more money
The latest arrest was you probably know about el chapo and his son's being arrested but the latest arrest is Mario sambada the leader of the sinaloa cartel the biggest drug lord ever. But guess who is Planning set him free. The DEA 😂😂
“Military grade weapons” people overuse that phrase so much to make shit sound cool. Bruh special forces grade weapons and military grade weapons are totally different.
Now, I'm not a military strategist nor a historian, however I don't know why anyone else doesn't see that the cartels will eventually take a foothold in America by providing a defacto security envelope in certain regions. They're wealthy. They're motivated. They have immense financial and technical resources. Finally, they have the will to do what the US government does not. Outside of using "total war" tactics, the US government will not be able to remove them. Time to learn Spanish.
Mencho comes from the name Nemesio. Just like Billy comes from William or Dick comes from Richard. Stuff like that. It’s not “where do they get their names from”. They’re derivatives from the actual name. The word chapo is a term used for anyone who’s below a certain height standard. Chapo. Chaparro. Same thing.
Having lived in NW Montana myself. The Cartel doesn't do anything but supply a demand. The biggest factors with substance abuse and the resulting fallout stems from problems right there at home. Unfettered gentrification and a seriously tilted socio-economic spectrum is destroying the lower-middle class. Couple that with suicidally long winters and no escape or recourse, people get high. Historically human beings get intoxicated when times get rough, whether it be alcohol or betelnut or khat or nicotine whatever it is. If the average Montanan could actually afford to live in Montana and not just in trailer parks sequestered between resorts and billionaire's ranches they'd have less desire to self medicate. Add in the wild west cowboy drinking culture and the profit margins of the drug trade you've got a perfect storm. Alaska has very similar problems. I've been around the block a few times, drugs in Montana may originate from the Cartel but it's local yokels that are sourcing them and distributing them, not a bunch of dudes in baklavas running around with assault rifles. Supply and demand; unless you taper demand the supply side only gets more lucrative. If you want to fix things start with your neighbors. Pushing the onus and spectre of the situation off onto a bunch of capitalists half a world away detracts from the real problems fueling the crisis. It just creates fear based propaganda and the ultimate scapegoat. "Well it couldn't be us!? We're perfect it's those boogeymen none of us have ever actually seen". We have lost this battle it's time we look at the war as whole and implement creative adaptive solutions. The drugs you get on the streets in the states you can't get in Sinaloa, you'll get chopped up real fast if you use fentanyl or anything not ordained by the higher powers, however nobody's moping about it, they're provided with sanctioned alternatives, you're allowed to get high just not on that stuff. If we hadn't tried to shut down the Afghan Heroin trade we wouldn't have fentanyl, Europe still gets real heroin nobody there uses fentanyl (except the Russians but they're nuts, I'd do fentanyl too). Demand and Supply. Think globally act locally.
@@NationalistHillbilly Spoken like a true couch warrior. I can think of about 300 billion reasons you're wrong. annually. What's with your handle? your lecturing about drugs, you do realize the Taliban controls the worlds Opium supply right? Appalachian Taliban huh? ROE states I'm allowed to smoke you.
And I'm just stuck in the middle with you because if anybody does anything the authorities will come down on your head, If you don't do anything well, they grow in ranks and numbers... And I'm stuck in the Middle with You... 🤷
I don’t wanna be in that guy but there’s a fake image in the thumbnail. The original image is of a Taliban group encamped somewhere in the Pakistan border. Although the one in the thumbnail has been altered and photoshopped the cjng cartel logo onto it.
I literally just got back from Jalisco/Michoacan border and it's extremely calm. The cartel isn't the threat it's our own damn gov plus all these foreign national from the middle east & the Chinese spies that are the threat along with our drug addicted & mentally fked up victim culture. As with everything in life mind your own business, stay out of shady areas, & mainly, don't fk around & find out. The cartel members are literally out in the open all the locals know who they are & where there at including the government they know quite well where "El mencho" aka "el señor de los gallos" aka "el padrino" is at. The only reason he's still operating/trafficking is because of the absolute corruption of the mex gov along with collaboration of American gov agencies doing back door deals (Christians. In. Action) too name a few. You'd be a fool to not see that we here in the US are just as corrupt, we just do it behind closed doors
Exactly no one in Mexico is "scared" of said groups I'm from north east coahuila,Nuevo Leon,taumalipas, people tread lightly but people fear the crooked government,crooked army,only respect the Marines , I have noticed the Chinese trying to bulldog gold mines and ports their is alot of them,1.5 million of them allowed into the country of USA within two years 25k have been arrested with or while taking pictures of military installations.they are the real threat
I understand the need for ads but I don’t think I’ve seen this many in any video I’ve watched before be it a video just shy of an hour like this or ones that are 1hr 30 the content is good but your amount of ads is whoa
For real. But they don't want to talk about how their nation is hooked on fentanyl and kiddie pron. Arrogant Americans reserve zero accountability for themselves.
The drug trade is just that, a trade. Items ar sold and bought. Everything else including the violence, is in the middle of this start to end transaction. While law enforcement does an important job, you need to erase the will to take drugs and the economic incentives to work for the cartels. This is possible but requires a totally different policy.
@@chachis-censored you make assumptions about me based on negligible information. I wonder in what way I would be an elitist for stating an opinion. Like so many others, quite a few people that I went to school with or that were close to me have passed away during the last three decades due to overdoses. I also worked as a prison guard many years ago, where I encountered scores of drug addicts. Is this your typical "elitist" background? Having that said and as you imply, it is of course very easy to say that the will to take drsugs must be erased, but very difficult to do it. However, there are already numerous good drug rehabilitation programs out there. What is lacking overall is resources. Of course the will to take drugs can not be erased and any attempt would take quite some time, but I believe that it would work. Aside from treating the addicts themselves, it is imporant to change societal culture that for many make it seem "cool" or as a way out to take drugs. Those resources could be obtained through a radical change in political priorities, but that is a different discussion.
@@thabomuso2575 Giving the government more money is the solution? Yea, you're a total elitist and a good little communist. One of the main reasons the government has let things get this bad is because they want more of your money. I've done enough drugs with people who've gone through rehab to know just how ineffective it is. Raising taxes only makes it harder for those already struggling to survive and is more likely to push them into drug use. You communists believe in fairy tales that the government can give us utopia but I am a realist. I know what it is like to deal with addiction and your statement about erasing the will to do drugs proves how little understanding you have about the reality of addiction and your statement about your idea that dealing with the problem of the level of the addict proves how little you understand economics.
Next time bring somebody who knows his sh!+. Been living here in Jalisco for 15 years, met and talked to people inside the business. There's no large body droppings here either
Southern accent??? uh nah, more like british accent. Otherwise great podcast, though I disagree with his compassionate approach. The one thing I think he is 100% right on is following the money and attacking all of their accounts and holdings world wide. That has to be one part of the solution. I think we do need to change how we classify them.
