No? I just mentioned the earliest case of US vs cartels I am aware of. I could have used any of the Mexican drug lord cases available (and they are many).

All including dea with intel and actual boots in Mexico.

The semantics comment was on the point that this is not technically the US military. Sure it is not the military it just has access to its personel and equipment.

It does not have access to the same equipment or (more critically) personel - especially in intelligence, as intelligence ops were not allowed either until the Sheinbaum admin.
