Edit: Disclaimer: with the amount of attention this thread is receiving, I figured it would be beneficial to point out what many redditors have said.

The source of this story as well as other attempts at finding more information on it indicate it originates from satire websites.

While it's important to be critical of any information, I believe we need more verification of this story and it's claims.

Although I'm not going to let this go to waste, as there is a long history of CIA involvement in drug running and other black market scandals. While we are here, I think it's important to collaborate, post, and share other information and dots that can be used to see a bigger picture of what the CIA has dipped it's hands into and done. I've edited my post below with additional links provided, please feel free to contribute.

::::::::::::::::::: Edit: After much back and forth it is apparent this story is very hard to be verified let alone sourced to a reputable medium.

I am hesitant to delete this thread as this is a good way to raise awareness towards CIA involvement in drug running. Gary Webb is one of the biggest leads in the evidence presented to back up such claims and it's sad to say he was found with two gunshot wounds in his head. It was ruled a suicide. I provided a link to his wiki below.

This link below is the original source used for the title of this thread. As previously said, it appears to be from a satire like website and I cannot verify the claims of this article after mine and others research and searching.

Take that as is. For now, I'm going to continue with the CIA involvement of drug running to possibly fund their black ops budgets. If anyone else can contribute links or anything I will add them below. Much thanks to all for all the help. My apologies for not further researching this at first before posting the original title and source. ::::::::::::::::::::

An investigation by El Universal found that between the years 2000 and 2012, the U.S. government had an arrangement with Mexico's Sinaloa drug cartel that allowed the organization to smuggle billions of dollars of drugs while Sinaloa provided information on rival cartels. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.businessinsider.com/the-us-government-and-the-sinaloa-cartel-2014-1?client=safari

:::::::::::::::::::: I appreciate you all taking the time to read about the CIA's involvement in drug running and helping add to this collection of sources.

While the original source that I provided with the title could possibly be satire, it leads you to question about other instances of CIA claims of involvement in cocaine running. There is ample evidence and anyone is encouraged to share links and knowledge.

Thank you all for reading, much love.
