Johnny Mitchell sits down with security expert Ed Calderon to break down the brewing storm across Latin America - from U.S. military posturing near Venezuela to narco-terrorism, drone warfare, and covert operations in Mexico.
Ed warns that the “War on Drugs” is being rebranded as a war on narco-terror, granting governments new powers while blurring the lines between criminals, rebels, and civilians.
They discuss
how cartels are adopting drone and submarine tech
how Colombian mercenaries are shaping global conflicts, and
why Mexico may already have U.S. boots on the ground
From fentanyl myths to Venezuelan oil politics, rare-earth resources, and the future of North American geopolitics, this episode dives deep into the shadow war few are talking about.
