Officially, Proceso was the first media to publish in Mexico that after so many decades the DEA accepted that there are cartels in the United States. Gringo cartels. Domestic cartels as they call them. Attorney General Merrick Garland also agreed at a press conference recently with the Mexican government in a security meeting at the State Department that they have a strategy to combat the U.S. cartels. And where are the names, who are they, how many are there? That is the information that the Americans don't want to release because it would be like spitting to high heaven.

In this Proceso report you can find the names of these groups, which are not cartels like the Jalisco New Generation Cartel or the sophisticated Sinaloa Cartel. They are very practical but just as dangerous and lethal as the Mexican and Colombian ones. Why? Because they are gang members, they are motorcycle clubs with franchises in the 50 states of the United States. In towns and cities that coordinate to receive drugs from Mexican cartels on the border between the two nations.

The job of distributing and selling them belongs to the gringo cartels. We have done a thorough investigation pointing out not only the names but the territories where they are located, how they move, and what their associations are and with which Mexican groups. Proceso's investigations have put the failures of bilateral cooperation back on the table. Because it’s not just a matter of federal legislators on Capitol Hill in Washington who are unaware of the minutiae of drug trafficking. They’re starting to point the finger at our country as the only responsible party.
