John Cornyn: “Mexican Security Minister Omar Harfouche has described…”

“At one point in 2020 and 2021, prosecutors estimated that around $20 million sat in 170 separate bank accounts connected to Brother Wang. Mexican Security Minister Omar Harfouche has described [Brother Wang] as responsible for making connections between cartels for transporting fentanyl from China to Central America, South America, Europe and the United States. Brother Wang is a perfect example of the serious threat that Chinese organized crime poses in the Western Hemisphere. Like the Mexican drug cartels, Chinese organized criminal groups are commodity agnostic.” (01:25–01:41)
