In an interview with Fox News on Wednesday morning, Jesse Ocana, a former member of a Mexican drug cartel, compared the cartels to billionaire philanthropist and political donor, George Soros.
When asked by host Bill Hemmer if the United States and Mexican government should work together to take out the cartels, Ocana replied:
“It can be done. But you’re talking about these cartel people, they have a lot of money. They can buy you. You can say they’re like (George) Soros. They can buy people out,” said Ocana. “If you’re a governor, a senator, and if you’re a big man in government, they can still buy you out.”
