Mexico’s cartel activity has been on the rise since the 2000’s, but only recently have U.S. lawmakers had the groups in their crosshairs. MORE ⬇️
A nearly 2,000 mile border separates Mexico and the U.S., but a bilateral relationship unites the countries. Mexico is a top travel destination for Americans and our second biggest trade partner, according to the U.S. State Department.
But the numbers don’t support his claim. 2020 data from the Mexican government had Mexico’s murder rate four times higher than that of the United States. Jerry Robinette, a retired special agent for Homeland Security Investigations, says the cartels foster corruption by bribing Mexican police, judges and elected officials. "The abilities of the cartels to get to the point that they’re at today is really because of the amount of drugs that we consume here in the United States," Robinette said.
"My local team just took off last week, 19,900 fentanyl pills in one search, and three and a half pounds of methamphetamine. That's one guy, one gang member," Donahue said. And the issue is exacerbated by breaches along the northern border.
