"It appears that this will not change in the near future. The DEA, which functions under the Department of Justice (DOJ), predicts that “Mexican TCOs will continue to dominate the trafficking of heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine, and marijuana throughout the United States.” Here’s why: “There are no other organizations at this time with the infrastructure and power to challenge Mexican TCOs for control of the US drug market,” the DEA claims. “Mexican TCOs will continue to serve primarily as wholesale suppliers of drugs to the United States to distance themselves from US law enforcement. Mexican TCOs will continue to rely on US-based gangs to distribute drugs at the retail level"

So yes the Mexican TCO overwhelmingly dominate the distribution and whole sale of drugs in the U.S. The U.S gangs just redistribute to retail.


what i mean is that they don't control territories and probably they not have cells, but mostly mediators and middlemen... it's not like the cartels say a black gang what to do in its neighborhood, they just sell it the drugs but the distribution is in the hands of local gangs
