Public Lands Under Threat: Cartels and China Are Quietly Controlling MILLIONS of Acres in America (John Nores Returns)

On today's episode, Andy welcomes back John Nores, a retired California game warden, author, and conservationist known for his frontline work combating cartel operations on U.S. soil. During his 28-year career with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, Nores helped pioneer the Marijuana Enforcement Team, targeting environmental crimes tied to drug trafficking on public lands. Together, Andy and John discuss the implications of the USDA’s proposal to eliminate the Roadless Rule—a policy that protects millions of acres of public land from logging and road building—and why its potential removal poses a serious threat to both ecosystems and national security. They explore how cartels exploit remote wilderness areas for illegal operations, the growing collaboration between cartels and foreign entities like China, and why both the southern and northern U.S. borders are increasingly vulnerable.
