What the End of Deep State General El Mencho Means for America

Lara interviews Jaeson Jones, former Texas DPS captain and cartel expert, about the killing of CJNG leader "El Mencho" and the violent fallout across Mexico. They discuss how cartels have evolved into global terrorist organizations, the implications of U.S. terrorism designations, and the challenges facing both Mexican and U.S. authorities. Jason stresses the importance of dismantling entire cartel networks rather than just arresting individuals, highlighting the complex, international scope of cartel operations and the urgent need for unified, innovative strategies to combat them.
