A wealthy Utah family smuggled oil for a Mexican cartel, funding terrorism against America. James Jensen and his son Maxwell face serious federal charges for supporting the violent CJNG cartel. This criminal operation funneled millions to terrorists while risking our national security.
These greedy Utah businessmen betrayed our country to make dirty money. They worked with the ruthless CJNG cartel, smuggling stolen Mexican oil across our borders. This cartel is officially labeled a terrorist group by our government. Working with them is like helping enemies who want to destroy America.
The Jensens ran nearly three thousand illegal oil shipments from Mexico to Texas. These crooks operated a shady refinery in Rio Hondo to process the stolen crude. Every barrel smuggled put cash in the pockets of murderous cartel thugs. Their actions directly funded terror operations targeting innocent Americans.
This rotten scheme stole oil drilled by Mexico’s national oil company. Cartel criminals bribed officials to hijack shipments before they reached the border. The Jensens then bought this stolen oil at bargain prices for their Texas operation. They didn’t care they were bankrolling killers as long as profits rolled in.
Cartel oil smuggling is now their second biggest money-maker after drugs. This illegal cash funds guns, gangs, and violence that spills into American communities. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warns this money lets cartels “wreak havoc” in our country. These traitors helped finance that destruction for personal gain.
James and Maxwell Jensen laundered $47 million through cartel-linked businesses. They face over thirty years in prison plus crushing fines if convicted. Authorities seized their tank barges and target $300 million in assets. Real justice means locking them away where they can’t harm America again.
The shocking case shows how cartels recruit rich Americans as partners in crime. These enablers think their money protects them from consequences. But U.S. Attorney Nicholas Ganjei vows to punish everyone aiding cartels – not just drug runners. Whether handing them guns or smuggling oil, you’ll face full justice.
This case proves we must smash cartel networks wherever they operate. Patriots support tough actions against terrorist funders like these Utah oil smugglers. Every criminal helping cartels betrays our nation and endangers our families. We must stand firm against all who wage this silent war on America.
