29. Former FBI agent Arturo Fontes sounds the alarm about the narco-terrorism
Former FBI agent and terrorism specialist Arturo Fontes sounds the alarm on the growing threat of narco-terrorism and its implications for the United States. Drawing from decades of experience investigating organized crime, terrorism, and transnational criminal organizations, Fontes explains how powerful cartels have evolved far beyond traditional drug trafficking. In this compelling episode, Fontes examines how these organizations use sophisticated networks, extreme violence, intimidation, money laundering, human smuggling, and international alliances to expand their influence across borders. He also explores why Americans should understand the connection between organized crime, national security, and the vulnerabilities created by transnational criminal networks. Is narco-terrorism becoming a clear and present danger to the United States? Arturo Fontes provides an insider's perspective on a threat he believes the public—and policymakers—can no longer afford to ignore.
