I don't believe that. It would take too much work to have a coverup like that, especially as total nitwits are elected to congress constantly. To address that, you'd have to say that no, people are divided into two camps with an infinite chasm between them: the ones in the know, and the total idiots. The far more plausible and minimal explanation is that it's a complex power balance that can tip unpredictably.

You're overthinking it. You can have a few in the know coordinating the direction while the eager idiots follow. It's happened time and time again throughout history.

According to that lady, the Mexican drug war is an American psyop, and US Marines are the ones running the drug flow into the US.

The CIA was running cocaine in Nicaragua [1]. It's not that far fetched.
