Excerpt:

On March 14, 2024, 21 teams from state, local, and federal agencies served 31 simultaneous search warrants at various homes throughout Tulare, Kings, and Fresno counties in Central California as part of Operation SLO Ride.

These warrants were the result of a 9-month investigation into information the Tulare County Sheriff’s Office received about a large amount of meth that was being transported between Kings and Tulare County.

The drug trafficking networks sourced their meth from a figure in Mexico connected to the Sinaloa Cartel.

.....The operation had identified and disrupted two drug trafficking organizations with 28 suspects. Drug Trafficking Operations have been dismantled in Visalia, Tulare, Porterville, Orosi, Dinuba, Corcoran, Armona, Reedley, and Exeter.

.....”This investigation dismantled, completely dismantled this drug operating cell. Now, they didn’t completely get rid of cartels operating here in the Central Valley, but this cell was completely dismantled.”

The operation is part of a greater effort called the High-Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Program, which works around the country to target drug operations. The investigation included phone taps and confidential sources.

.....During this week’s operation, a total of 214 pounds of meth, 3.5 kilos of cocaine, 5 shotguns, 15 handguns, 7 rifles, one bullet-proof vest, and $300,476 were seized.

At the 31 locations, 37 known drug traffickers were arrested; 22 will face federal charges related to narcotics and/or the sales of drugs, and 15 will face state charges.

85 Total Arrests
28 Federal Arrests
955 pounds of Meth
6.5 kilos of Cocaine
64,020 Fentanyl pills
81 Guns
1 Bulletproof Vest
$640,476 Cash

Washington Post Columnist Calls on Kamala Harris to Step Aside ‘For the Country’s Sake’

Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker is calling on Vice President Kamala Harris to step aside. The media is terrified of the ticket that they’ve supported for the last three years.

Who exactly do they think is going to come riding in to save them? Michelle Obama has made it clear that she has absolutely no interest in running for office.
