U.S. Labels Juarez Cartel as Terror Group | El Paso News
Description
The U.S. Treasury just slapped La Linea — the Juarez cartel — on a special terror list, freezing their assets and banning American businesses from dealing with them. Though they weren’t on the first list of major cartels back in 2025, U.S. officials have long targeted La Linea and its Mexican-linked operations. A chilling 2019 massacre of nine mostly women and children, which led to a $4 billion judgment still unpaid, underscores their brutality. Meanwhile, Los Viagras in Michoacán has been officially labeled a Foreign Terrorist Organization — a clear message that Washington’s pressure on transnational criminal groups is intensifying.
