TRUMP EFFECT: Mexico Abruptly Extradites 28 Cartel Bosses to U.S. — Including DEA Agent’s Killer
Breitbart ^ | 27 Feb 2025 | Ildefonso Ortiz and Brandon Darby

In an apparent attempt to appease U.S. officials who have been pushing for tariffs and punitive measures against Mexico for their alleged role in protecting drug cartels, that country’s authorities confirmed the extradition of 29 criminals wanted by the U.S. Department of Justice. These include a top drug boss behind the 1985 murder of DEA Agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena, the two supreme leaders of Los Zetas Cartel, and the brother of the supreme leader of Cartel Jalisco New Generation.

On Thursday afternoon, Mexico’s Attorney General’s Office confirmed the extradition of 29 wanted criminals who were all in custody in various prisons across Mexico. The confirmation of the extradition came at the same time that Mexico’s security cabinet was meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and his staff over that country’s response to drug cartels.

The extradited fugitives include Rafael Caro Quintero — one of the leaders of the Guadalajara Cartel. This criminal organization is considered to be the root of where most of Mexico’s western cartels, including the Sinaloa Cartel, the Juarez Cartel, and the Tijuana Cartel, spawned. As Breitbart Texas reported, Caro Quintero is wanted in the United States for his role as one of the masterminds behind the kidnapping and gruesome murder of DEA Agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena in 1985.

Considering many of them are probably still running their organizations from those Mexican prisons this is a pretty big deal.

This is friggin huge!!! I know Kiki’s family is overjoyed to hear this, as are his brothers and sisters in the DEA. I’m afraid it’s going to come with some very swift and violent retribution on Mexican LEOs though. Maybe even some action on this side of the boarder.

Just getting rid of the competition for favored cartels. Thanks Madam Presidente. Your cash is in the usual place.

To make it easier on Mexico, we should stipulate that these men don’t have to be alive when they get here. Just for ease of transport, I mean.

El Salvador’s President said he would build prisons for the USA. We should take him up on that deal.

So what are we going to do with these shitbirds? There’s limited space in Florence Supermax ... maybe we should build a few more copies of that institution?

I’m sure all the Mexican government has to do is ask, and President Trump will gladly send U.S. military forces to help them exterminate these lowlife cartel bosses.

Meanwhile, True-dolt is bragging about adding ‘Blackhawk’ helicopters to help protect the border. Our border is 5,525 miles long, according to DHSA .pdf. True-dolt claims that there are ‘nearly 10,000 frontline personnel’ protecting the border.

Yep, TWO HELICOPTERS were added, TWO! Does a ‘Blackhawk’ have a range of 2,762.5 miles? How long would it take to fly that 2,762.5 miles? Yep, Justin. That’ll REALLY change things! </the thickest, darker sarc, ever!>

Early on, the CAF stated that they would not be supplying ANY military personnel to guard the border. The CBSA only has 8,500 ‘frontline personnel’! How about some EVIDENCE of ‘10,00o FRONTLINE PERSONNEL!

What an f’n lying POS fraud, cork soaker, that True-dolt is!

I suspect that True-dolt will be vacating Canaduh VERY soon, as he doesn’t want to be ‘Ceaușescu’ed! He’s leaving a dying Canaduh in the hands of Marx Carney, to administer the ‘coup-de-grace’.

May they both get the reward that they have both earned!
