1:02:45Now PlayingOn this week's episode, Vince sits down with former Green Beret Scott Mann to examine the growing intersection between cartel violence and terrorist tactics. Drawing from his Special Forces background and work on Operation Pineapple Express, Scott breaks down how Mexican cartels are evolving into insurgent-style networks with increasing reach and sophistication.
The conversation explores the blurred lines between organized crime and terrorism, the vulnerabilities at the U.S. border, and the importance of identifying early warning signs in both rural and urban communities. Scott also reflects on lessons learned during the Afghanistan withdrawal, the vetting of allies, and how those experiences relate to the current challenges facing U.S. national security.
