    Buy 4 Less, Move a Ton: CJNG’s Fake Store, the Cocaine Tunnel, and the War Beneath the Border
    Jun 8 2026
    In December 2025, HSI agents began watching a San Diego retail store called Buy 4 Less, a place that almost never sold anything but moved a lot of suitcases. What they eventually found underneath it was a 1,933-foot CJNG-linked cocaine tunnel, 55 feet underground, fully engineered with rail systems, ventilation, and hydraulic access, and a first operational shipment of over two thousand pounds of cocaine worth forty-five million dollars. This episode breaks down how the operation worked, what it tells us about CJNG’s infrastructure and sophistication inside the United States, and why the border is not just a line on a map but an active battlespace that most Americans never think about until something like this surfaces.

    The U.S. Treasury Department has imposed sanctions on more than a dozen individuals and entities linked to the Sinaloa Cartel’s fentanyl trafficking and money laundering operations, including a popular restaurant in Chihuahua, Mexico. This action highlights the cartel’s use of seemingly legitimate businesses to facilitate illicit activities while underscoring ongoing efforts to combat the flow of deadly synthetic opioids into the United States. The sanctions reflect a broader strategy under the current administration to designate and dismantle narco-terrorist organizations responsible for thousands of American overdose deaths
