DEA’s most wanted drug lord Rafael Caro Quintero arrives in NYC to face charges after Mexico hands him over to US

 Rafael Caro Quintero, a notorious drug lord and one of the Drug Enforcement Administration's (DEA) most wanted fugitives, has been transferred from Mexico to New York City to face drug-trafficking charges.

• Quintero, aged 72, was moved to the U. S. after the Mexican government handed him over, along with 28 other cartel members, due to pressure from President Trump regarding tariffs on Mexican goods unless drug smuggling is addressed.

• Ray Donovan, former head of New York’s DEA office, stated that Quintero's arrival is significant for DEA agents due to his connection to the murder of DEA agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena in 1985.

• The Justice Department has indicated that many of the detained cartel members are no longer just seen as criminals but as terrorists, following their designation as Foreign Terrorist Organizations.

• Quintero is expected to be arraigned in Brooklyn Federal Court and may face charges related to drug trafficking, though no current murder charges are filing against him.

• This transfer is viewed as a potential step towards justice for the family of the slain DEA agent and could lead to a significant change in drug trafficking dynamics, according to experts.:

Rafael Caro Quintero’s transfer to the U. S. marks a crucial moment in the fight against drug cartels, reinforcing the commitment to combat illegal drug trafficking and the impact of international cooperation between the U. S. and Mexico. As events unfold, his trial is anticipated to reveal details about his past crimes and potential links to broader cartel operations.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
