Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada, the leader of Mexico’s Sinaloa cartel, has been arrested by US federal agents in El Paso, Texas.
Zambada, 76, founded the criminal organisation with Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, who is currently jailed in the US.
Arrested with Zambada on Thursday was Guzman’s son, Joaquin Guzman Lopez, said the US justice department.
In February, Zambada was charged by US prosecutors with a conspiracy to make and distribute fentanyl, a drug more powerful than heroin that has been blamed for the US opioid crisis.

Was that one part of the Border Tsars catch and release schemes.
I'm surprised a new series isn't in production as we speak, but with a woke twist !. The Sinaloa cartel leader 'El Mayo', will be played by Danai Gurira (black panther), and instead of being about trafficking cocaine, fentanyl and amphetamine into America, El Mayo, will be an oppressed Mexican woman, who battles through racism, sexism and oppression on a daily basis, as she sells Guava & coconuts on the streets of Sinaloa to make ends meet !. She wants to sell her products across the boarder, but the evil white patriarchy wont allow her, so she digs tunnels with her bare hands for miles and miles and brings her fruit stalls to America. The locals cheer all over Mexico, the communists cheer all over the American universities !. She's then elected as president of the United States of America.
El Chapo used to chop his enemies to pieces, El Mayo used to squirt mayonnaise all over his enemies and eat them 😮
you really think this is a sting? hes paying a political debt… the guys pays nearly every governments yearly bonuses…
Cocaine trade is all run by the cia or fbi with out cocaine money the world will stop

El mencho is the biggest😂Dont let the us fool you‼️
Election Year STAY WOKE…

And now the Mexican government is concerned how the US did this, you know to make sure no laws were broken. 😂

He's old and dying even though he had millions maybe he just didn't care anymore and besides the US Government and Mexican Government let them go anyways so why even lock them up
They already said it was el chapos son who betrayed him. The problem is when king pins have nowhere to run anymore they make deals with the government trading information for a lesser charge.
Heinz can't keep getting away with this
he was betrayed
This is going to make El Mencho, the leader of the most violent, powerful mexican cartel(Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación) the largest and most powerful drug kingpin in Mexico. The only other cartel that could contest "CJNG" in strength and resources was the Sinaloa Cartel. Now that his mortal enemies are out of the way, I can foresee a brutal war starting from the remnants of the El Mayo faction of the Sinaloa Cartel and "Los Chapitos" side of the Cartel. This will ultimately weaken the Sinaloa Cartel, while simultaneously emboldening "CJNG" to begin taking over territory from the crippled coalition of the Sinaloa Cartel.
I don't think the FBI/DEA and Homeland Security truly understand the implications of the events they just kicked off today with this arrest. I pray for the innocent Mexican people who will fall victim to the brutal drug war that will commence after today. May god have mercy on their souls.
The Mexican president is so corrupt or so stupid that he does not understand when he is being humiliated and exhibited by the FBI.
He is both, stupid and corrupt.
The cartels are no diffirent from the British during the opium wars in the 1800s.
The biggest killer of Men under 50 in the USA is now drug overdoses.
nobody was commenting like this before he got arrested 😂😂😂
Straight to the chair! Do not pass go.
