Mexico’s notorious Sinaloa cartel, once ruled by now-jailed drug kingpin Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, has barred the production of fentanyl — under penalty of death.
The about-face by the narco crew — the main trafficker of the deadly synthetic opioid flooding the US — comes as El Chapo’s kids bow to a mounting law enforcement crackdown on the drug trade, the Wall Street Journal reported Monday.
The order came from the “Chapitos” — the name for Guzman’s sons, who took over the operation.
“In Sinaloa, the sale, manufacture, transport or any kind of business involving the substance known as fentanyl, including the sale of chemical products for its elaboration, is permanently banned,” said one of several banners hung on billboards and overpasses in Culiacan.
“You have been warned,” the message read. “Sincerely yours, the Chapitos.”
US law enforcement officials are skeptical about the decree, and said the ban is expected to do little to curb the fentanyl trade — and could lead to an increase in heroin and cocaine trafficking.

Who does the taste-testing?
Well, isn’t that nice of them. We should thank them politely, then wipe the whole organization off the planet, along with all the other cartels.
Killing your customers is not a good business model.
Even narco-gangs understand this............
If you believe that a drug cartel would ban drug dealing, then you would probably believe that the Hussein/Biden Regime has banned ballot harvesting and voter fraud.
C’mon, Man!
So, the cartel cares more about saving lives than president Bribey does?
CCP too expensive and not willing to share manufacturing rights. Cartel cutting them off.
Cartel is aggressively developing internal manufacturing and formulation base to go with distribution effectively cutting t CCP out of picture.
Currently looking for their Gustavo Fring and Walter White for fentanyl
Where can I go to meet this cartel and thank them?
“jailed drug kingpin Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, has barred the production of fentanyl — under penalty of death”
I’d say “duly noted” to that but I have bigger fish to fry.
.... “US law enforcement officials are skeptical about the decree, and said the ban is expected to do little to curb the fentanyl trade — and could lead to an increase in heroin and cocaine trafficking.”
They’ve been killing customers faster than new ones enter the market. Never a good short or long term strategy.
I don’t want it near schools. I don’t want it sold to children! That’s an infamia

“In my city, we’d keep the traffic to the Dark People, the Coloreds - they’re animals anyway, so let them lose their souls.”
Fring was my fave.
A few thought.
Why bother with fentanyl when your cartel can make billions with the full support and aid of the Biden administration?
Could it be Biden reached out and promised to keep the border open, this the human trafficking industry making billions, in exchange for limiting fentanyl since having 100,000 dead Americans is bad for his reelection.
Can they be in cahoots with their Chinese partners and Biden over Taiwan?
SOMETHING STINKS worse than Biden’s filled diaper
Maybe killing too many customers.
5 people (so far) from my old neighborhood have died from drugs in the last 6 years or so. They ranged in age from 30s to 50s yet all died in the past few years.
I suspect they sense change coming and know they are going to be targeted.
I believe the WWF and the NFL are true sporting events
I would say you are probably on target there. That together with killing customers a bad long term strategy.
