Mexican Senator Alleges Cartel Collusion with Ruling Morena Party Ahead of Election Weekend

A Mexican senator lashed out at members of the country’s ruling political party. She accused Morena members of hypocrisy and benefiting from organized crime.

The fiery accusations took place Tuesday during a congressional hearing where Senator Lilly Tellez accused colleagues in the Morena Party of having the support of the Sinaloa and Gulf Cartels.

“How am I going to face off against the senator from Sinaloa, knowing she has all the support of the Gulf Cartel, and El Chapo’s Cartel?” Tellez said. “How can we face off against you when you have the full support of the cartels, the mafia, knowing full well that once we get out of here we can be attacked by those criminals who are helping you to operate in the elections –this is having bravery and civic responsibility.”
