The cartels had a bunch of oil, probably obtained nefariously, and needed to fence it.
They hot tap the shite out of those lines and oil will be spilling for days before repairs are made. Much of it goes unnoticed.

Idiots should have decided on a number, get to it, then jet off to parts unknown and disappear.
The fact that the Cartel was their business partner makes this plan a whole lot more complicated and less appealing.

Behind every great fortune is a great crime
Spoken like a true Democrat politician stoking class warfare for votes. This kind of statement is so intellectually dishonest. Now if you’re talking about a career Democrat politician like Pelosi on a $145,000 salary and a 200 million dollar net worth, then yes that’s 100% true. They are the criminals and grifters. Most fortunes are accumulated legitimately, very few aren’t.

Only $9.1 million for 29,000 square feet? That's a fricking deal in today's market.

At 35% less than Brett Favre's shack it looks like a steal. Plus you get to look at the Wasatch range and not MS.

I wish trump would start carpet bombing the fricking cartels and tell Mexican govt to frick off
Pretty sure the Mexican people wish their government would carpet bomb American gun manufacturers and American drug addicts as well

Is why I preferred the North Salt Lake/Bountiful area. The benches are much, much better. I can see way past downtown Ogden from my back deck. Course I also have to look at Holly refinery.
But I used to work for Rio, not far from the mine itself. My office was right there at the corner of Mountainview and Old Bingham.

Some of the earliest Mormon Pioneers were Jensens. It's one of the most common names in the state.

Ya gotta respect the ingenuity and work ethic, if not taste.

Southfork
I live about 5 miles from Southfork and used to drive by it twice a day going and coming home from work.
There’s 40 homes around it that are bigger.

I googled Bountiful, Utah and this came up down the page. Do they really have avocados like this in Utah? I mean look at those avocados. Firm and ripe. I would love to stuff one or two of those in my mouth.
