Yes, the US didn’t do much. The extent of the shared intelligence is unknown and mightve been minimal for all we know. It was mexican boots on the ground.
There was a psyop campaign from the very start to undermine the mexican goverment by giving the credit to the US.
Well. Hes not directly connected. But the US did provide intelligence for the operation and Trump has threatened to invade if they didnt do something about the cartels.
The news keeps saying that this is a break from previous administrations who did not want to kill kartel leaders because it always means retalliatory violence.
We cant know their exact reasons. But it definitely isnt crazy to assume Trumps threats made them more agressive.
Wait, how is Trump connected to the El Mencho assassination? I thought that was just Mexico.
Agreed, let’s not propagate falsehoods on Lemmy. US helped with intelligence but Mexico did the actions. (as far as I am aware)

He’s not, it was claimed on social media and grew from there. Fact checked here - https://www.timesnownews.com/world/mexico-news-fact-check-was-el-mencho-eliminated-in-mexico-by-american-special-forces-article-153671194
Trump didn’t do it, so maybe he deserved the peace prize after all.

Fuck off lmao. The US didn’t do shit, the shared intelligence could be minimal for all we know, it was mexican boots on the ground.
Trump threatened to invade if they didn’t do something. So they did something.
Even so, he didn’t directly call the shots. Let’s not water down his actual atrocities with crimes that can be more easily defended.
Mencho was going down regardless of Trumps threats, giving him any credit for it is a stupid concesion.
He was connected by the CIA
