Cartels target Native American reservations | NewsNation Prime

It’s serious and out of control: Drug cartels moving into Native American reservations and selling fentanyl and other drugs at prices far above the usual street values. Stacy Zinn, a former DEA agent in Montana, tells “NewsNation Prime” the cartels are taking advantage of the lack of law enforcement resources on the reservations.

Where’s the FBI?

Busy chasing their political opponents on the right...

[@kennybachman35]

No jurisdiction.

[@lukeyellowtail1145]

So technically BIA officers are federal officers. They usually don’t even intervene until there’s a reasonable situation. Sadly the drug epidemic isn’t one of those reasons

[@JoanneLeon]

It's not their land or jurisdiction. And there's another side to this story -- cooperation with cartels. Depends on the tribe, I guess.

That’s like saying Americans are addicted to drugs so Mexicans are addicted to buying guns. The US eliminated Cartels in the 90s because that country asked for intervention. Now Mexico is a sanctuary for criminal organizations because they refuse any help.

[@tenaguin1054]

From past understanding, law enforcement has no or little jurisdiction on Native American land. The tribes have their own justice systems. Each tribe should be addressing issues with their tribe members. Every tribal member receives an annual allotment from the US government and freely spend as they need and want. Since the tribes are entities within theirselves, there has to be insiders that are working with the cartels. The only responsibility of the US government is allowing the cartel to come into the country with drugs to sell. Again, another problem directly back to the Biden/Obama family and admin. I’m sure the native American tribes appreciates Nancy Pelosi’s help in assisting Obama to pull Biden’s strings and getting the drugs and alcohol to the tribe members.

[@sissykim3975]

The state can create an alliance with the tribe.

[@sissykim3975]

Any of the governor's in these states can go to the tribal council and create an alliance to fight this but they wont. Noem preferred to send her guards to the southern border rather than guard her own state borders. These reservations include millions of acres of property but this is a country problem not a reservation problem. If its happening on the reservation its happening in other parts of the state.

[@musashi-san____1409]

They blend in? Weird. It's almost like they share some of the same ancestry.
