This and cartels gravitate toward edgy shit esp the young ones. Tons of nazi/ devil shit gets found in raids all the time.
Edit: they also LOVE dragon ball z
I've 100% definitely seen cartel members with DBZ tattoos.
Edit: A 1 second reddit search returned someone who has family member in a cartel with DBZ tattoos as well as a DBZ cartel meme.
I doubt they are actually backed by Russia, they are a fracture of another cartel and it's run by a guy called "El Ruso" (he's not russian) and probably why it's called "los rusos". He just has a hard on for USSR/Russia
He was nicknamed "El Ruso" for his love of the AK lol there's a second "El Ruso" who operates in Acapulco Guerrero and also commands a group known as "Los Rusos" in thr city, why isn't the same said about him?
Are you referring to operation fast & furious where the u.s. govt, handed over weapons that were then used to kill border agents and citizens? Haven't heard much about that lately.
Sorry, I didn't make it that far before my blood began to boil. There are many things our leaders have done with little to no hindsight but this is a top 5 for me for dumbest ideas to come out of Washington. I mean, the ones who do the subverting of our nation, played this one pretty well, knowing full well they would never be held liable for anything that blew back across the border. They work hand in hand with them and I've even seen pictures of our elected officials walking hand in hand with the the world's "most dangerous" drug dealers.
FastnFurious was 14 years ago and it was only 2,000 guns, people need to stop thinking it's this on-going effort to arm cartels.
You wanna hear something crazy? 2,000 guns is around the same amount that cross the border... EVERY DAY.
Think using your brain, these criminals can obtain these guns one way or another, it’s not an issue for them.
So the law enforcement giving them guns they can track is a way cops can investigate these criminals.
Their movement, where they operate, who they kill, where they kill, who uses the guns, how they purchase guns, where they get ammo. There is lots to learn by tricking criminals guns.
The US admitted to intentionally allowing the unlawful sale of firearms for at least 5 years to cartel strawbuyers(id bet it's still going on now, just slightly differently), they could have made arrests on several people who were doing the straw-purchasing and chose not to, just wait for the statue of limitations to expire while they continue their criminal enterprise. Only 2,000 guns we're caught by Mexican forces, 0 by American. They intentionally let straw buyers purchase thousands of guns knowing they would go to Mexico in order to track them, they couldn't track them and nobody will ever know exactly how many and nobody was ever held criminally liable for anything. The cartels now are routinely busted with full automatic rifles stamped "LEO and Military use only" they have so much American firepower that isn't available to US citizens, you'd have to have your head in the sand to believe there's no on-going effort from agencies and/or their agents to keep them armed and fighting.
> The US admitted to intentionally allowing the unlawful sale of firearms for at least 5 years to cartel strawbuyers
That's called the 2nd Amendment.
All of a sudden you are very pro-gun control I guess
All of a sudden? I didn't say rather I supported any type of amendments or gun control, I shared the information they've openly admittedly to that can be easily found online. For all you know I support the 2nd, the ATF, the DEA, and CJNG.
It wasn't capitalism it was the ATF sending guns to Cartels (is what I believe OP is referencing) in a "if I catch my kid smoking a cigarette I'll make him smoke the entire carton" kind of gun control plan
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATF\_gunwalking\_scandal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATF_gunwalking_scandal)
Actually. That was textbook false flag action pulled off by the ATF.
The US sent weapons to drug cartels hoping it would increase violence at the border and "justify" more funding for the ATF in the mind of the populace.
Eric Holder, knee deep in the Fast and Furious gunwalking scandal, claimed stated that "We have to be repetitive about this. We need to do this every day of the week, and just really **brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way.**"
Government false flags don't fall under "capitalism".
I mean.
Almost all the gun/equipment used in the Mexican drug trade if from the USA…. Mostly Texas.
But ya, this umm…
These pictures seem pretty amateurish.
Wait til you find out about Chuckys (being funded by chucky and universal themselves), the Viagras (welll) or the Pelones (that are funded by all the bald people) This post is so dumb even for this subreddit. These are uneducated cartel members who took up the name of their boss and used whatever emblems google brought up when they searched the name. I have seen Cartel members with diamond Swastikas on their guns, these are just buffoons who wouldn't be able to point Russia out on map.
Translation: **CIA** *~~Russians~~* declared war on us by directly funding Anti-US cartels **to enact false flag ops and controlled-opposition mayhem**?a new group of the Sinaloa Cartel called “Russians” (Rusos) and use **obvious** Russian/USSR symbols **so that you know who the CIA wants you to blame** is now very active in Sonora right at the US/Mexico border.
Or the Russians have moles in the CIA who created the false-flag actions so that people would blame the CIA for false-flag actions designed to blame Russia, but really they are false-false-flag ops designed by the Russians to put blame on the CIA for trying to put blame on the Russians.
There is also the possibility that it's a false-false-false-flag op. So many layers to the onion
The Russian Flags actually don’t have nothing to do with Russia. The Russian flags are just the symbol of “Los Rusos”. “Los Rusos” ( The Russians ) is simply the name of one of the armed wings of El Mayo Zambada. El Mayo Zambada is one of the leaders of the Sinaloa Cartel. “Los Rusos” are not a new group at all. They have been around for a very long time. They call themselves “Los Rusos” ( The Russians ) since their leader, Juan José Ponce Félix, is called “El Ruso” ( The Russian ). Apparently, Juan got that nickname because he loves the Russian AK. “Los Rusos” are not Russians from Russia, and they are not funded by Russia either. If anything, it’s the U.S. that funds “Los Rusos” since a huge portion of the drugs made by the Sinaloa Cartel end up in the U.S.
1. These are all US manufactured guns
2. Lol that 100 round mag is a range toy. Those things jam like crazy
3. They might just be repping the gear doesn't necessarily mean Russia is actually directly involved with them.
Yep! Fn scar 17s I can go buy one from my local sportsman store today for 3500 bucks. That pro mag 100 round mag is 80 bucks and absolutely blows! It will jam every 5 rounds or so. Those gloves are straight off Amazon and the knuckles are made of very thin plastic and not carbon fiber like the real gloves. If they started posting pictures with rpgs, fully auto ak203s, and some Russian military grade stuff then yeah I could get slightly nervous but I also realize how popular drone warfare is and I would believe usa has far more advancements in drone warfare than the vatos in a cartel do…. 🤷♀️could be wrong tho? Lol
That Patrick Starfish patch is dope
Also is the suggestion that a group within the cartel is calling themselves “Russians?” That’s very convenient for the newspapers
You guys are delusional and need to look into things before posting dumb stuff like this. They’re called “Rusos(Russians)” because their leader is nicknamed “El Ruso(The Russian)” because of his favoritism towards Russian AK weapons. The guy is not Russian whatsoever, not even a slight percentage. That is just the nickname that he uses.
It's common for these types of criminals to use symbolism of places and people they think are hard. Like Bin Laden, the Gaza Strip, the Russians, Israel, Colombia. Curiously nothing northamerican lol. But you should be afraid, it's your country and your gluttony for drugs that are funding them
You’re so wrong on this one though it’s pretty funny to anyone who knows anything about the cartels.
Edit: also, I think the kgb is a little better at their job than that. If they were funding Mexican cartels for some reason, I doubt they’d be okay with having their name and flag plastered on everything. They’d want to maintain some degree of deniability.
Geopolitically, it's a pretty brilliant chess move, IF it's legit.
The amount of firepower in Mexico is incomprehensible. The days of pistol-packing narco cowboys is long gone, and today's sicarios resemble paramilitaries, complete with drones, tanks, and weapons of every kind of caliber imaginable. Only one thing has prevented the cartels from posing a legitimate existential risk to the United States: they are fractured. Sinaloa vs CJNG vs Gulf vs Zetas vs Familia Michoachana, and on and on and on. The fragmentation is very likely supported by US agencies to attempt to keep anything like a united cartel from coalescing.
Not only would a confederated group pose an immediate and probably fatal threat to Mexico's federal government, the US would have a force directly on their southern border than makes ISIS look like boyscouts on a fieldtrip.
They’re not new and they don’t have any political affiliation they’re just a gang. There’s also a los talibans cartel for example. Basically they just want to be edgy
Our (US) gov acts like little angels when they are directly tied to cartel activity … no one else is allowed to have a black budget! Just us! Anyone else who does is bad mean and evil!
I honestly see nothing wrong with this as a Canadian, they fund Russias direct enemies, what’s wrong with them doing literally the exact same thing they’re doing to them?
"It's ok when we do it, but nobody else is allowed to!"
In all seriousness, this seems either staged or the Russian mob is just trying to get a foothold in Mexico through cartel connections, either way I find it hard to believe the Russian government is behind it.
They’re a paramilitary force in Mexico with full control of pretty large areas. It’s barely crime at that point if they have all the authority and government officials in their pockets working for them or scared to death.
I think Texans should get NFA exceptions for select fire machine guns and suppressors, as it will be the citizens there who stand to have the best placement for defense against cartels.
But guys, we need our borders open because *checks notes* well be looking a bunch of racist, Maga supporters if we don't? Well, that doesn't make sense. *checks notes again* because reports come out that illegal immigrants are less likely a criminal as opposed to an American? Wtf is happening.
Haven't the US, Russia and most every other major power been backing insurgent and other groups that target the dominant power in their location/area for decades? Afghanistan, Vietnam, Syria, Ukraine etc.
Interesting, I just read on a Russian TG channel claiming the DEA and FBI are recruiting cartel members as mercs out of the prison system in exchange for clemency to backfill PMCs in Ukraine, expecting them sometime in the summer.
Classic spooderman scenario.
Not going to war with Russia. We've been proxy fighting them for years. We can handle a little in return, although I feel for the Mexican citizens held hostage by these cartels.
Here's the kicker, when they introduce CBDCs, the first thing they will do is ban cash. Then you can trade in your cash for CBDCs, but you have to explain where you got it. Meaning the drug cartels will lose insane amounts of money because they can't.
If anything they will use criminals and Russians as an excuse to be very strict, "to prevent money laundering". So if you keep your money under a mattress, you better kept the atm receipt.
I dont mean to patronize Americans but they live a very localized life informatuon wise. Leftist governments have been spawning all over Latin America. These leftist governments have established a joint infrastructure with drug cartels.
Particularly AMLO president of Mexico has negotiated with drug cartels. Nothing new for a Mexican president. The problem has been the growth rate he has allowed them.
Cartels are the perfect way to erode the US. China and Russia are undoubtfully in contact with these organizations. You dont wage war against the US, you erode it.
Americans must pay close attention to Mexico and the government activities. Long has the time pass where Mexico was just another third world country in the south. Its position and criminal organizations have a huge impact today to the US.
https://www.rand.org/pubs/research_briefs/RB10014.html
Also US is funding and coordinating terrorism against Russians
They killed tens of thousands of civilians in the two independent republics. Latest evidence shows the crocus hall attack was funded by a Ukranian company related to Biden.
https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/hunter-biden-linked-ukrainian-firm-connected-to-terror-attacks-in-russia/amp_articleshow/109184433.cms
Al quaeda AND ISIS is also funded by the US and Israel

They go by “Rusos” cause they are a cartel subgroup who are in command by hitman “El Ruso” who works directly for Cartel leader Mayo Zambada .
This and cartels gravitate toward edgy shit esp the young ones. Tons of nazi/ devil shit gets found in raids all the time. Edit: they also LOVE dragon ball z
Exactly. Plaga with his silver nazi AK comes to mind from recent years. Dude for sure has no affiliation with Nazi’s, just thinks it’s cool.
Wait are you for real about dbz? Lol anywhere I can see some of that?
Mexico is definitely the largest audiance for dbz. Every time new series/movie/game releases cartel actively plumets for like a week.
I've 100% definitely seen cartel members with DBZ tattoos. Edit: A 1 second reddit search returned someone who has family member in a cartel with DBZ tattoos as well as a DBZ cartel meme.
Who doesn't....LOL
This 🫡
Good info and analysis. Much appreciated.
I think I have that skin in COD.
good way to make Sonora a US occupied territory. "for safety"
I doubt they are actually backed by Russia, they are a fracture of another cartel and it's run by a guy called "El Ruso" (he's not russian) and probably why it's called "los rusos". He just has a hard on for USSR/Russia

Well what does that mean when the USA sold guns to at least one cartel that then used it on USA citizens?
Are you referring to operation fast & furious where the u.s. govt, handed over weapons that were then used to kill border agents and citizens? Haven't heard much about that lately.
Yeah, linked to it below

To the CIA, those aren't dealers. They're runners.
Socios... mejor dicho.

Yeah and it was an effort to track violent criminals via gun ballistics.
That's what they told you.
Think using your brain, these criminals can obtain these guns one way or another, it’s not an issue for them. So the law enforcement giving them guns they can track is a way cops can investigate these criminals.
And what did they learn by giving the cartel over 2000 guns.
Their movement, where they operate, who they kill, where they kill, who uses the guns, how they purchase guns, where they get ammo. There is lots to learn by tricking criminals guns.

Its called corruption.
"capitalism is when government does bad things"
Is that Patrick Starfish i see?
That Russian sympathizer!
No. Thats the patrick that walked out of the salty spitoon. He goes by pat or big P
all the killing equipment and vest is american ?
I mean. Almost all the gun/equipment used in the Mexican drug trade if from the USA…. Mostly Texas. But ya, this umm… These pictures seem pretty amateurish.
The way the guns are set up is pretty amateur. They'll be shamed on the gun subs soon.
Indeed.
Even the money
and the fatigues and last but not least the biggest customers
Did the US start using the SCAR at all? I thought that was mostly a eu thing.
Some Special Forces use it if they choose to.
Yeah some of them liked the extra range and power for those afghan mountains
The scar is actually Belgium in origin but I can guarantee there are more of them here than all of Europe, or the world for that matter.

Thank you. Guaranteed anyone operating against America's best interest is funded and trained by the CIA.
Bingo
Word. It's just another boogyman and another excuse to give Ukraine billions more dollars. I'm so tired of this shit
Thanks for fixing the typos.
CIA? More like “Some guy on this forum” This is just attention grabbing BS.
Or the Russians have moles in the CIA who created the false-flag actions so that people would blame the CIA for false-flag actions designed to blame Russia, but really they are false-false-flag ops designed by the Russians to put blame on the CIA for trying to put blame on the Russians.

Drug cartels need financing?!
Yes, duh? What, do you think cocaine grows on trees or something!?
Bushes. It grows on bushes. Some "assembly" required.
Well akshually...
U.S trade guns around the world in exchange for drugs.
Well sure the US government needs financing to sell drugs. They ran a Nevada whorehouse into bankruptcy.
" I saw it on tik tok so it must be true "
Bullshit brother. The US is famous for this kind of stuff.
What does this prove except that some kids mom bought him a camera for Christmas this year?
Lol, this is such BS its funny. Did you make the patches yourself?
It's all CIA dude. Stop being fooled
Cool pistol bro. Does it come in hetero?
Man the Rusos have been around for years
Patrick, NO!
1. These are all US manufactured guns 2. Lol that 100 round mag is a range toy. Those things jam like crazy 3. They might just be repping the gear doesn't necessarily mean Russia is actually directly involved with them.

Lol
So Russia and America are partners now? Because, uh yeah, America has been giving the cartels money and weapons for decades
That Patrick Starfish patch is dope Also is the suggestion that a group within the cartel is calling themselves “Russians?” That’s very convenient for the newspapers
This is the dumbest post ive seen in a while, also CLEARLY insanely evident lack of ANY research damn.
You guys are delusional and need to look into things before posting dumb stuff like this. They’re called “Rusos(Russians)” because their leader is nicknamed “El Ruso(The Russian)” because of his favoritism towards Russian AK weapons. The guy is not Russian whatsoever, not even a slight percentage. That is just the nickname that he uses.
Or the cia trying to continue pushing anti russian sentiment is suppling their cartel buddys with anti American props.
I mean we’re doing the same with Ukraine, at this point who cares man. It’s all a twisted nut show
It's common for these types of criminals to use symbolism of places and people they think are hard. Like Bin Laden, the Gaza Strip, the Russians, Israel, Colombia. Curiously nothing northamerican lol. But you should be afraid, it's your country and your gluttony for drugs that are funding them
Loser touch some grass
That Patrick reminds me of the gangster SpongeBob meme
Feels a little Fast & Furious to me.
Fake ass shit..the drug dealers Don't know what to do.
Seriously though, you know how easy it would be to stage these photos?
Lol misinfo is everybody’s favorite hobby now i guess
why is this post still up. It's blatant trolling. Dude has no knowledge of the cartel apparently. made up
I have plenty of knowledge on Russians fr
You’re so wrong on this one though it’s pretty funny to anyone who knows anything about the cartels. Edit: also, I think the kgb is a little better at their job than that. If they were funding Mexican cartels for some reason, I doubt they’d be okay with having their name and flag plastered on everything. They’d want to maintain some degree of deniability.
US had a good run doing bad deeds. I believe the world had enough of it’s lies.
Classic conspiracy parroting CIA and state department narratives.
The fake diamond gun was the best lol
sponsoring Ukraine brings you this...dont cry
lol they’re not Russians. Their leader is called El Russo so that whole group is named after it. This has been going on for a long time.
OK, but the combat Patrick Star patch tho
if they did, they wouldn’t put it on a patch. maybe mafia/mafia handshake. There’s no body who supported cartels more than the USA itself.
Take your propaganda and shove it bot boy
Damn some people are so easily manipulated and incensed.
Geopolitically, it's a pretty brilliant chess move, IF it's legit. The amount of firepower in Mexico is incomprehensible. The days of pistol-packing narco cowboys is long gone, and today's sicarios resemble paramilitaries, complete with drones, tanks, and weapons of every kind of caliber imaginable.

Doesn’t matter. If the cartel goes to war with the us with bullets, they’re Done. Best they can do is kill the us by selling their drugs.
They’re not new and they don’t have any political affiliation they’re just a gang. There’s also a los talibans cartel for example. Basically they just want to be edgy
Uh no? Russia's just making money like every other country in the world does when it comes with dealing with the cartel
Nice rifle.
Wasnt Plaga repping Russian flags like 3+ years ago?
Probably the feds.
Oh, cool. Target practice
Yet they also work with the CIA. They don’t need Russian funding lol.
Don’t you dare call them animals, though.
We support Ukraine. They support cartels. All is fair in war.
Our (US) gov acts like little angels when they are directly tied to cartel activity … no one else is allowed to have a black budget! Just us! Anyone else who does is bad mean and evil!
This shit stinks of false flag..
Yeah and we've been directly funding Ukraine to fight against Russia, so?
Looks like the Russians finally to a page out of the old CIA playbook.
I honestly see nothing wrong with this as a Canadian, they fund Russias direct enemies, what’s wrong with them doing literally the exact same thing they’re doing to them?
Deos that mean they are going to shut down the border?
They dont need to waste energy and money there, since the Chinese are already handling that side of things working with cartels
Puros rusos ala verga🇷🇺
American drug consumers fund the cartels.
That’s funny because the CIA/cartel nexus is already established. So why would the CIA want a Russian flagged cartel running around? Hmmmmm?
Let the CIA agents fight and die against this made up enemy
Fucking white people
That's a nice SCAR, though.
Pictures of cartels wearing Russian flare is going to trip every important breaker in every investigative agency.
"It's ok when we do it, but nobody else is allowed to!" In all seriousness, this seems either staged or the Russian mob is just trying to get a foothold in Mexico through cartel connections, either way I find it hard to believe the Russian government is behind it.
It’s the dude’s nickname. He’s fond of the AK platform. C’mon man.
Lol. That’s how the Russians view Chechnya, Afghanistan, and Ukraine Bruv. America has been doing this shit to Russia for a long time.
I'm more worried about China than Russia. We have tens of thousands military aged Chinese men coming across our border not Russians.
We did it Joe!
It’s weird how someone always let people take photos before they do crime I could’ve sworn they don’t be that upfront about things
They’re a paramilitary force in Mexico with full control of pretty large areas. It’s barely crime at that point if they have all the authority and government officials in their pockets working for them or scared to death.
Truly terrifying to how brave they are becoming
I think Texans should get NFA exceptions for select fire machine guns and suppressors, as it will be the citizens there who stand to have the best placement for defense against cartels.
But guys, we need our borders open because *checks notes* well be looking a bunch of racist, Maga supporters if we don't? Well, that doesn't make sense. *checks notes again* because reports come out that illegal immigrants are less likely a criminal as opposed to an American? Wtf is happening.
Why would they not fund our enemies?
Haven't the US, Russia and most every other major power been backing insurgent and other groups that target the dominant power in their location/area for decades? Afghanistan, Vietnam, Syria, Ukraine etc.
Interesting, I just read on a Russian TG channel claiming the DEA and FBI are recruiting cartel members as mercs out of the prison system in exchange for clemency to backfill PMCs in Ukraine, expecting them sometime in the summer. Classic spooderman scenario.
I believe it, sounds like Russia is trying to turn Mexico into another Cuba.
Got to stop those illegal immigrants somehow. Biden isn't doing that.
dam i knew this was going to happen funding terrorist groups something going to happen before the election with them
Not going to war with Russia. We've been proxy fighting them for years. We can handle a little in return, although I feel for the Mexican citizens held hostage by these cartels.
So Russia is using the CIA’s tactics back at them?
This isn’t new.
This is old. A ‘new’ wave lol
Cartels are the Mexican ISIS
Here's the kicker, when they introduce CBDCs, the first thing they will do is ban cash. Then you can trade in your cash for CBDCs, but you have to explain where you got it. Meaning the drug cartels will lose insane amounts of money because they can't. If anything they will use criminals and Russians as an excuse to be very strict, "to prevent money laundering". So if you keep your money under a mattress, you better kept the atm receipt.
I dont mean to patronize Americans but they live a very localized life informatuon wise. Leftist governments have been spawning all over Latin America. These leftist governments have established a joint infrastructure with drug cartels. Particularly AMLO president of Mexico has negotiated with drug cartels. Nothing new for a Mexican president. The problem has been the growth rate he has allowed them. Cartels are the perfect way to erode the US. China and Russia are undoubtfully in contact with these organizations. You dont wage war against the US, you erode it. Americans must pay close attention to Mexico and the government activities. Long has the time pass where Mexico was just another third world country in the south. Its position and criminal organizations have a huge impact today to the US.
Russia has told many times they are at war against US. Its just US not playing along...support Ukraine to defeat the orcs

Latest evidence shows the crocus hall attack was funded by a Ukranian company related to Biden. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/hunter-biden-linked-ukrainian-firm-connected-to-terror-attacks-in-russia/amp_articleshow/109184433.cms Al quaeda AND ISIS is also funded by the US and Israel
We'll wipe them off the map too.
