Barack Obama once bragged that his administration was “scandal-free”. Ironically, this is kind of like Pablo Escobar saying his business was “mostly pharmaceutical.”
And now, another member of the Obama Crime Family just belly-flopped into the federal indictment pool—this time from the very department that was supposed to be fighting the thing he was secretly helping fund.
Meet Paul Campo, former Deputy Chief of Financial Operations at the Drug Enforcement Agency. Financial operations. At the DEA. Under Obama.
And—surprise!—the guy was laundering millions in drug money for a cartel.
Yes, America, Obama’s top money guy at the DEA was working for the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), coaching cartel thugs like a disgraced varsity quarterback who couldn’t let go of the glory days.
This wasn’t a rogue agent. This wasn’t a clerical error. This was the Obama administration’s DEA brass agreeing to help launder $12 million in drug proceeds, while also offering strategic advice on drones and assault rifles. The DOJ’s Friday evening news dump (because nobody dumps good news at 7 PM on a Friday) revealed Campo accepted the connection through his associate, Robert Sensi, because apparently nothing says national security like outsourcing federal agencies to Mexican cartels.
Let’s be honest: Obama forgot to list this little tidbit on his résumé.
Drug Enforcement Agency?
Under Obama, it was looking a whole lot more like the Drug Enablement Agency.
Obama’s America: Where the Criminals Wore Badges and the Victims Voted Democrat
When you look at the Obama administration with a clear head, you see a government filled with rogue agencies, political hit jobs, and people who treated the federal bureaucracy like a buffet of corruption. Campo isn’t the first to fall. He’s not even the fiftieth. He’s just the newest exhibit in the growing museum called “Obama Cartel Inc.”
And let’s talk about the environment that allowed this. This wasn’t a guy hiding in a basement cooking meth. This was a top official—near the top of the DEA food chain. This means people knew. They always know.
So the question becomes: what else was the Obama Cartel approving, ignoring, or flat-out abetting?
Human Trafficking: The Cartel’s Side Hustle That Obama Pretended Didn’t Exist
The cartels don’t just run drugs—they run people. Human trafficking is the side business that dwarfs the morality of even the most hardened criminal. And under Obama’s open-borders cosplay, the United States became a Five-Star All-Inclusive Resort for traffickers.
Illegal immigration surged. And with it, trafficking surged.
WaPo—yes, that WaPo—reported that Obama’s system placed children with human traffickers. That’s not a typo. It’s not satire. It happened.
And the media still kneels before the altar of “scandal-free Obama.”
Let’s talk numbers, because Democrats flee from numbers like vampires from sunlight.
-
Between 4.6 and 4.9 million people attempted to enter the U.S. during Obama’s years.
-
2.8 million were rejected—a number driven more by the economy than by anything resembling policy.
-
And 1.5 to 1.8 million got-aways slipped across.
Those got-aways include:
-
Trafficked minors
-
Sex slaves
-
Indentured servants
-
Cartel workers
-
The unreportable victims politicians pretend don’t exist
If those numbers don’t make you sick, Harvard lays it out even worse:
“An estimated 1,091,000 people are living in modern slavery in the United States.”
Let that sink in: over a million people in America in modern slavery—and Obama pretended his border was “fair,” “humane,” and “compassionate.” Compassionate for whom? The cartels? The traffickers? The donors?
America’s Squalor Pipeline: Courtesy of the Obama Cartel
In 2015, Guatemalan minors were smuggled into the U.S. and forced to work in Ohio egg farms—long hours, squalid housing, threats of violence. This isn’t a footnote in a report. It’s a window into the underbelly of Obama’s border fantasy.
This is the system the Obama Cartel defended, that Democrats still defend, and that the media celebrates.
Obama loved to talk about “dignity.” But dignity doesn’t come from stuffing kids into slave camps. Dignity doesn’t come from empowering criminal syndicates. And it sure as hell doesn’t come from appointing DEA officials who double as financial advisors to the Jalisco New Generation Cartel.
And While Campo Laundered the Money, Obama’s DOJ Sent the Guns
Let’s not forget Fast & Furious—Obama’s DOJ shipping guns into Mexico like it was a Groupon promotion. The theory? Create enough cartel chaos so Mexicans could claim asylum.
Here’s the Democrat formula:
-
Help cartels get guns.
-
Help cartels get drones.
-
Help cartels get American kids “placed” with traffickers.
-
Help cartels flood the border.
-
Then claim you’re the “moral” party.
Outcome?
-
More drugs
-
More sex slaves
-
More illegal workers
-
More cartel capital
-
More Democrat voters
-
More Democrat money
If you tried to design a system to destabilize America while enriching organized crime, you couldn’t do better than the Obama years.
The Obama Cartel Blueprint
Obama created a blueprint that Biden later Xeroxed:
-
Rogue agencies
-
Weaponized DOJ
-
Open borders
-
Cartel empowerment
-
Human trafficking spikes
-
Data manipulation
-
Media protection
Campo didn’t invent the corruption; he inherited it. And Obama didn’t stumble into disaster; he partnered with it.
