If it happens, I really wish that cartels capture every single yankee soldier

    Yea some Republican congressman is calling for a war on cartels (soooo isn’t that just the war on drugs+war on terror combined into one??) and as we’ve seen the US Empire’s previous wars on vague concepts, I gotta put my money on the cartels winning, tho they will probably take a few financial hits and shakedowns. Kinda funny to me that the US Empire is doing the old classic of allying with someone (cartels and drug runners in the 80s) and betraying them and calling them the ultimate evil in the world. The writers room for the USA show need some new hires, these storylines are old, played out and just plain predictable.

      Knowing what he’s dealing with, it wouldn’t surprise me if congressman disappeared and a video of him skinned alive (or something similar in that category)popped up on the internet…

        I should have corrected myself, there are a number of Republican politicians that want “war” on cartels, Crenshaw, Lindsey Graham, Mike Waltz, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and some loser named James Comer, he barely even votes on shit and probably wanted people to remember his name by making some bold claim like saying Trump should have bombed Mexico to rid North America of Fentanyl and Meth labs. Besides the obvious racist and xenophobic rhetoric, it ignores the fundamental hole in that solution, that there are PLENTY of labs in the US too. And on top of that, it ignores the fact that if society worked better for the average person they wouldn’t even think about doing meth or fentanyl
