The undercover world of a former DEA agent, who at one point was responsible for what could be the biggest drug deal in history. $3.6 billion dollars and bringing multiple countries down for a real win on the side of the people, only to find out our own government is really not interested in winning this war or any war. We discuss a first-hand account of the sabotage of a DEA undercover sting operation that threatened to expose us government ties to drug financed governments of multiple countries. Like Vietnam, the Drug War is not intended to be won.
