    About this Episode

    The Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), also known as Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación, is a powerful and highly dangerous criminal organization involved in drug trafficking, organized crime, and violence in Mexico. Here is a summary of key information about the CJNG:
    1. Formation: The CJNG was established in the early 2010s, emerging as a splinter group from the Sinaloa Cartel. It was founded by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, also known as "El Mencho," and his close associates.
    2. Operations: The CJNG is primarily involved in the production and distribution of various illegal drugs, including methamphetamine, cocaine, and fentanyl. They have a strong presence in Mexico and are known to operate internationally, smuggling drugs into the United States and other countries.
    3. Violence: The CJNG is infamous for its brutal tactics and violent confrontations with rival cartels and law enforcement agencies. They have been responsible for numerous massacres, kidnappings, and acts of extreme violence.
    4. Territorial Control: The CJNG has expanded its influence across various states in Mexico, particularly in the western and central regions. They have also sought to control key drug trafficking routes and engage in territorial disputes with rival cartels, most notably the Sinaloa Cartel.
    5. Influence: The CJNG has grown to become one of the most powerful and prominent criminal organizations in Mexico. They have a sophisticated network and access to vast resources, including weaponry and finances.
    6. Government Response: Mexican and U.S. law enforcement agencies have been actively targeting the CJNG due to their involvement in drug trafficking and violence. Both countries have designated them as a significant criminal threat.
    7. International Connections: The CJNG has established connections with other criminal organizations and cartels, as well as transnational criminal enterprises. Their reach extends beyond Mexico, impacting the illegal drug trade on a global scale.
    8. Challenges: The CJNG presents significant challenges to the efforts to combat drug trafficking and organized crime in Mexico. Their violent tactics and influence have made them a high-priority target for law enforcement.


    In this episode, we discuss how CJNG has infiltrated the Lime industry and how they are making millions while they do it.

    Dead Bodies Are Piling Up In The Streets In Haiti As The Violence Continues To Spiral (3/10/24)

    Dead Bodies Are Piling Up In The Streets In Haiti As The Violence Continues To Spiral (3/10/24)
    Haiti faces a myriad of complex challenges that threaten the well-being of its people and hinder the nation's development.








    1. Political Instability: Haiti has a long history of political instability, characterized by frequent changes in government, corruption, and weak institutions. Political unrest often leads to protests, violence, and economic disruption, further exacerbating the country's challenges.
    2. Economic Crisis: Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the Western Hemisphere, with a significant portion of its population living below the poverty line. High unemployment rates, low wages, and limited access to basic services contribute to widespread poverty and economic vulnerability.
    3. Natural Disasters: Haiti is prone to natural disasters, including hurricanes, earthquakes, and flooding. The country's vulnerability to these events is compounded by factors such as deforestation, inadequate infrastructure, and poor urban planning, leading to significant humanitarian crises and loss of life.
    4. Environmental Degradation: Deforestation, soil erosion, and environmental degradation are serious problems in Haiti. Rampant deforestation, driven by charcoal production and agricultural expansion, has depleted the country's natural resources, leading to soil erosion, loss of biodiversity, and increased vulnerability to natural disasters.
    5. Healthcare Challenges: Haiti's healthcare system is underfunded and poorly equipped to meet the needs of its population. Limited access to healthcare facilities, medical supplies, and trained personnel contributes to high rates of preventable diseases, maternal and infant mortality, and poor health outcomes.
    6. Education: Access to quality education is limited in Haiti, particularly in rural areas where schools are often poorly resourced and understaffed. High dropout rates, low literacy levels, and inadequate infrastructure hinder the country's human capital development and economic growth.
    7. Crime and Violence: Haiti struggles with high levels of crime and violence, including gang-related activities, drug trafficking, and interpersonal violence. Weak law enforcement, corruption, and socioeconomic inequality contribute to the perpetuation of criminal activities and undermine public safety.
    8. Humanitarian Crises: The combination of political instability, economic hardship, natural disasters, and social challenges has led to recurring humanitarian crises in Haiti. These crises often result in displacement, food insecurity, and inadequate access to clean water, shelter, and healthcare services.


    As we continue to follow along with the horror unfolding in Haiti, we are getting very, very disturbing reports from the people living in the capital and how civil services, which were spotty during the best of times, have now completely broken down, leading to dead bodies littering the streets as coroners and morgue employees refuse to go to work out of fear of being caught up in the violence.
