US Freezes Sinaloa Cartel Assets in Fentanyl, Human Trafficking Crackdown
Story by Dan Gooding • 16h


The United States announced Tuesday it was seizing assets belonging to two transnational gangs known for trafficking fentanyl and people into the country – the Mexican Sinaloa Cartel and Colombian Clan Del Golfo (CDG).

Known for its role in smuggling people through the notorious Dairen Gap in Panama, CDG is also one of Colombia's largest drug traffickers, the U.S. Department of the Treasury explained.
 
Sinaloa, meanwhile, allegedly sets up businesses in Mexico which mostly appear legitimate, but are used as part of its fentanyl operation across the border with the U.S.

"President Biden and Vice President Harris are committed to using every tool at our disposal to combat the cartels that are poisoning our communities with fentanyl and other deadly drugs," Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Wally Adeyemo said in a press release.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I'll hazard a guess this won't sit well with the cartels.  The US had better be ready to freeze those assets with bullets since Biden/Harris have already allowed cartel enforcers in this country in whatever numbers they need. 0380000
