But will they do anything with them?

The sweep against the Sinaloa cartel culminated in a series of Drug Enforcement Administration raids Tuesday night and Wednesday morning in 120 cities. The official added that DEA agents seized $59 million in U.S. currency; 12,535 kilograms of cocaine; more than 16,000 pounds of marijuana; more than 12 pounds of methamphetamine; approximately 8 kilograms of heroin; approximately 1.3 million pills or 500 pounds of Ecstasy; approximately 120 kilograms of MDMA powder; and more than $6.5 million in other assets, including 149 vehicles, 3 aircraft, 3 maritime vessels and 169 weapons. |

Sounds like good work. I hope they dotted all of their "i"s and crossed all their "t"s, but they probably did.

A very small dent in only one cartel's business.
But DAMN it looks good on TV doesn't it! This country is becoming the laughingstock of the world. |

59 million in cash is a lot of money... in one place that's gotta take up a lot of space. Not like the other stuff doesn't, but still.
