Who cares? Someone else just as evil has already replaced him. There's no point in doing anything to these guys unless and until Mexico sorts its cultural problems out. This is what white people don't understand- cartels and the violence they inflict are not some outside, once-in-a-million influence that's oppressing the poor beaners that just needs to be taken care of and then Mexico will be free- they're an organic, reoccurring expression of a violent, greedy, corrupt, and self-sabotaging culture.
Well It's very important because US national security is at serious stake more then just mass migration and migrant farmers and drugs.
But it is known that groups like The Iranian revolutionary guard have reached out to cartels in Latin America.
To describe why it's important let's do a history lesson (I'll keep it brief but detailed.)
The cartels from the most violent/powerful to the lesser known.
Jalisco New Generation - Aka (CJNG) these guys are the most violent and rapidly climbing up to the number 2 spot. These guys have connections to the presidency, possibly Iran's revolutionary guard, Russia, former US assets, and keep Smart neo cons that didn't go drumpf bad up at night. They are less of a cartel and more a full fledged paramilitary organization. They make more of their money with human trafficking, and extorting taxation.
The Sinaloa Cartel - (CDS) these guys are the most(powerful) famous, we've probably all seen narcos Mexico, they have their oldest links to Sinaloan cowboys who used to run grass in the 70s, coke in the 80s-2000s before upgrading to Heroin and Fentanyl.
The head is El Mayo now, before him was El Chapo.
Unfortunately there is a bloody civil war forming in the cartel at the moment. Bread and butter was drug routes however they also spread out into legitimate industries too.
El Chapos sons are in a war between El Mayos sons.

The Gulf cartel/Los Zetas (CDG)
One of the older more established cartels, they have their traces going back to the 1920s with prohibition and early heroin smuggling. The most entrenched and many estimate that this cartel tends to have the most influence on the American side especially in the Customs border patrol.
Nothing really exciting happened until don Bergna died and his son got captured/killed in the early 2000s. They had a brutal drug war with the former Juarez cartel, and Sinaloa cartel. They allied with the Tijuana cartel.
Other cartels but notable
Tijuana cartel - not as powerful as it once was but still runs Baja California despite the city being under occupation.
Juarez cartel - some traffickers cut their own independent routes despite the danger.
Knights templar/various other cartels - formed as protection from traffickers and normal people against the other cartels.
(Tldr)
CJNG rising to power and The Sinaloan civil war could be devastating. Because imagine if instead of the rare rifle round hitting a US citizen across the border in the leg you instead have armed sicario armies decide to take over small portions of US cities and launch ballistic missiles at softer targets like Dallas or San Antonio.
The Sinaloa Cartel is at the end of the day a drug organization. Being criminals is less risky then being a terrorist.
Why does Mexico, despite having a president with some balls, always bow down to the Gringo?
I mean fuck, isn't this glorified drugmule guilty of crimes in Mexico? Cant he serve his sentence there?
Ok , I get its corrupt, he might dig himself out like his daddy. But what country sends their criminals away to serve a sentence in a foreign land before they have goten their own justice first?
Deja Vu btw. This is him in 2019. I first thought he didnt change his shirt in 2 years but its not the same.
Because Mexico is interdependent on American gringo watersheds, and dollars to sustain his large economy.
Que mierda, esse.
The US isn't invading Mexico over a drug boss and the boys in the CIA used to run the drugs so they are the last agency to run a train on Mexico.
The US wouldn't invade over a drug boss maybe back the other cartel. But we would absolutely invade if a cartel started commiting terrorist attacks on US airliners and risking dragging all of NATO and possibly Russia and china into a joint counter insurgency campaign because their citizens got to Mexico as well too.
Most Cartels don't want to be terrorists but criminals.
A lot of those videos people are posting as new are old shit.
Imagine how money have cartels to be more prepared to a war than an entire country,also this arrest is because US want to replace him by a another cartel leader more quiet.
Imagine if DEA don't know this gonna happen LOL they don't care as US get money.
Some are old as shit from 2019 but there are some recent ones particularly on live leak. But this time the Mexican government is prepared and cracking down on it this time. From what I've seen the cartels have been hurt by this raid.
