Today, as the Jalisco Cartel attacks Mexico, it’s worth remembering that Paul Campo, a DEA agent for 15 years, and Robert Sensi, a CIA agent, were arrested in December for a $12 million money laundering and arms dealing operation for the cartel.

The DEA and CIA agents agreed to exchange payments for 220 kilos of cocaine and to obtain weapons, military equipment, and explosive drones for the Jalisco Cartel.

The only ones interested in the instability in Mexico are Trump and the US, to justify intervention in the country against drug trafficking… which they themselves finance and arm.

Drug trafficking is one of the biggest businesses imperialism uses to finance itself, as was proven in its war against Nicaragua and with the Contras, selling crack in their own neighborhoods… and it never stopped.

Look at the state-of-the-art military equipment this Jalisco cartel has; you don’t have to be a genius to figure out where they got it:

      Literally anywhere online. You can buy a whole lot of stupid, illegal stuff online. Since selling jammers is illegal in the US, a lot of companies manufacture and ship from places like the Philippines, with the only big hurdle being getting the package past customs. Are sites like this honeypots? Maybe? Are some of them scams? Absolutely.

      Here’s a Chinese company offering jammers.

      Here’s a new piece on a series of burglaries in New Jersey where a burglar used a signal jammer to mess with home security systems.

        And you hit the most important part here. I am trying to find it in my normal civilian channels and there is simply no way to buy a signal jammer.

        Importing stuff from abroad also has its level of complexity. Unless you are a rich person with contacts in customs like Rocha Cantu, the common folk have no access to stuff like this.

        The rules for the rich are very different from the normal folks and that includes access to stuff like this.

          Do you know how often drugs, weapons, and contraband slip through package customs?

          You cannot legally acquire a signal jammer anywhere, there are no “civilian” channels, but nothing is stopping you from paying through criminal channels, and having a shady business ship one to you.

          Oftentimes illegal electronics equipment are shipped disassembled and disguised with other legitimate parts. Smuggling is a massively lucrative endeavor, and something tells me that a cartel wouldn’t have any issue securing a shipment from an producer in China or Africa.
