[SATIRE] CIA Agents Arrested by Minutemen at the Border with 1300 Pounds of Cocaine

[Created4]

El Paso| A group of minutemen watching the Mexican Border for illegal migrants and drug traffickers, have proceeded to the citizen arrest of two men in an SUV, carrying 1300 pounds of cocaine. The volunteers were completely astonished when the two arrestees pulled out CIA ID cards and explained they were actually carrying the drug as part of their duties and that the cargo belonged to the Central Intelligence Agency.

The incident took place last night, in the Chihuahuan desert, near the Texan city of El Paso. A group of seven minutemen saw a large black SUV drive rapidly across the border. They chased the vehicle in their own trucks and achieved to immobilize it after a chase of more than 15 miles.

The vigilantes arrested the two men on board and called the border patrol, who proceeded to search the vehicle. They discovered dozens of packages of cocaine, totalling an incredible 618.4 kilograms (1363 pounds).

The two men claim to be CIA operatives based in Mexico and explained that the drug was actually part of an operation of the agency. They presented identity cards that seem to validate their claim, but the CIA spokesperson, Dean Boyd, has officially denied any link between the organization and the two men.

“The CIA doesn’t take part in drug smuggling operations at the US-Mexican border” said M. Boyd. “I do not know, for now, if the men are actually affiliated to the agency in any way, but I can tell you the cocaine doesn’t belong to the CIA.”

Just goes to show the level of distrust. I didn't think for a moment that it was satire.

Satire or documentary?

At the very least the CIA (who are well known for being involved in drug trade) does drug trading for entrapment purposes the same way they run terrorist operations, most recently to nab a Topeka based jihadist.

Everything that the CIA does "off the books" is drug funded.

If you want people to understand that something that you're writing is satire, then you should at least drop some hints, or make the story actually not plausible.

The notion that the CIA is actually smuggling drugs across the border is less ridiculous than some of the things that the FBI and CIA have been known to actually do

Also, the notion that drug smugglers would try to fool border patrol into thinking they're CIA just to get out of being arrested doesn't sound so far fetched either.

I think the fact that the CIA agents were driving and not flying overt he borders gave the story away. More red flags is the CIA agents themselves and not hired guns doing the drug smuggling. If it was official CIA business, I doubt it would have done down the way it did.

The "CIA ID Card" was the clue.

Oh, me too...one "Onion" is enough.

And most are not even funny.

$#@! these people for obscuring what really does happen: CIA running drugs.

[William Tell]

Satire, ok, I wonder where they got that picture though? That black guy looks like Claver from Raging Elephants Radio here in Texas, lol!

I know he hangs out with some those border guys.

The site is probably funded by the CIA.

[Ronin Truth]

Why that much?

Because it was all they could carry.

[TheTexan]

This is why I only trust mainstream news sites

[ThePaleoLibertarian]

Too bad I swallowed the anti-government pill so early in life... Satire or not, sounds like life as an agent is one big party. Paying for my own drugs gets so tiresome.
