In other Mexico News, tariffs work!!

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/2/28/why-has-m...

Why has Mexico handed over drug cartel leaders to US? Who are they?

Mexico has handed over 29 drug cartel figures to the United States, including one of the FBI’s most wanted, Rafael Caro Quintero, in what observers say is a “show of compliance” by Mexican authorities. The handover comes just days before 25 percent tariffs on Mexican imports by US President Donald Trump are due to come into effect.

Trump has long taken aim at what he says is Mexico’s failure to control drug cartels. He has referred to them as “quasi-government organisations” in some parts of the country and blames Mexico, in particular, for the flow of highly addictive fentanyl, a synthetic opioid, into the US in recent years.

OK, this is good for Trump PR. But... is there some benefit to us that they languish in our prisons rather than Mexican prisons?

One of the problems is they don't seem to control the dosages well - so lots of overdoses. We need Walter White to go in there and teach them how to do that properly. I can see Heisenberg selling this right now. "You need me" - "I can make it so the customer knows how much they are taking and stays alive to be a customer again." Pauses, looking into the eyes, "you've been killing your customer and bringing the wrath of the Feds down on you." Eyebrows up, gestures toward himself and Jesse, "with us, the Feds will move on to those who don't have our technique, you'll have a steadier supply of customers, and the Feds will be after your competitors."

Selling it to Trump - "we can lower the deaths to almost zero, and move our money out with your bitcoin. We cut you in for 10% and it's outside of the US and untraceable. And anyone you don't like will be one of the few overdose deaths reported."

I think this is another example of putting on a show for something that's already happened - they were already jailed.
