Sean Penn Interviews El Chapo for Rolling Stone…

Sean Penn interviewed fugitive Mexican drug lord Joaquín Guzmán Loera, known as “El Chapo,” who was captured and returned to prison Friday, for Rolling Stone magazine. Loera was said to have been captured when he reached out to producers and actors about making a biopic of his life.

The interview published Saturday evening was conducted in October while the drug lord was on the run from Mexican and U.S. authorities. Mexican actress Kate del Castillo, star of soap opera “La Reina del Sur,” conducted the interview with Penn. It was arranged through a producer he calls Espinoza in the article.

Though he formerly denied being a drug dealer, he told the actor, from a secret location, “I supply more heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine and marijuana than anybody else in the world. I have a fleet of submarines, airplanes, trucks and boats.”

Penn explained his interest in the outlaw, saying in the article, “I take no pride in keeping secrets that may be perceived as protecting criminals, nor do I have any gloating arrogance at posing for selfies with unknowing security men. But I’m in my rhythm. Everything I say to everyone must be true. ”

“I took some comfort in a unique aspect of El Chapo’s reputation among the heads of drug cartels in Mexico: that, unlike many of his counterparts who engage in gratuitous kidnapping and murder, El Chapo is a businessman first, and only resorts to violence when he deems it advantageous to himself or his business interests,” he continues.

Penn suggests in his article that “we, the American public” are also complicit in the cartel lord’s crimes:

Aren't those kinds of spoons a bit small for making holes in things other than noses?

My thoughts exactly! I think Sean Penn has been on the CIA payroll ever since he made the Falcon and the Snowman movie.

If cartel buddies thought Penn ratted him out, Penn is going to have a big problem.

*** Maybe it was Sean Penn who ratted him out. ***

So, will Penn get the 5 million dollar reward for giving up El Chapo?

Penn, the commie-loving Fidel-smooching moron, has put a cartel death fatwah on himself as a snitch.

Ok, it’s alright then. /s
Penn should be charged as an accessory.
