Mexican drug kingpin El Chapo's son 'lured' cartel boss Ismael 'El Mayo' Zambada into boarding a plane to the US after 'blaming him for the capture of his father', as both men were arrested. Zambada, 76, founded the Sinaloa Cartel along with now-jailed drug lord Joaquin ' El Chapo ' Guzman, and faces a litany of indictments for crimes relating to drug trafficking and organized crime in the US . According to the Wall Street Journal , he was tricked by El Chapo's son Joaquín Guzman Lopez into boarding a private plane to inspect airfields for drug planes following a months-long operation by Homeland Security Investigations and the FBI.
Biden said: Yesterday, the Department of Justice arrested Ismael Zambada Garcia (AKA 'El Mayo') and Joaquin Guzman Lopez, two of the most notorious leaders of the Sinaloa Cartel, one of the deadliest enterprises in the world. They are being charged for leading the Cartel’s deadly drug manufacturing and trafficking networks. I commend the work of our law enforcement officials, who made this arrest, for their ongoing work to bring Sinaloa Cartel leaders to justice.
Too many of our citizens have lost their lives to the scourge of fentanyl. Too many families have been broken and are suffering because of this destructive drug. My Administration will continue doing everything we can to hold deadly drug traffickers to account and to save American lives.

The bureau is still investigating the shooting at the Butler, Pennsylvania, rally on July 13 and collecting evidence, CNN reported Director Christopher Wray sparked a firestorm on Wednesday when he told Congress they are still analyzing whether Trump’s ear was hit by a bullet or piece of shrapnel.
In a furious post on Truth Social, Trump blasted Wray's suggestion and took aim at his judgment on other topical issues - including Biden's mental state. 'FBI Director Christopher Wray told Congress yesterday that he wasn’t sure if I was hit by shrapnel, glass, or a bullet (the FBI never even checked!),' he fumed. 'But he was sure that Crooked Joe Biden was physically and cognitively “uneventful” - Wrong! That’s why he knows nothing about the terrorists and other criminals pouring into our Country at record levels.
'His only focus is destroying J6 Patriots, Raiding Mar-a-Lago, and saving Radical Left Lunatics, like the ones now in D.C. burning American flags and spray painting over our great National Monuments - with zero retribution.
'No, it was, unfortunately, a bullet that hit my ear, and hit it hard. There was no glass, there was no shrapnel.’ The victim interview is standard procedure during an FBI investigation.
