China's Drug Cartel Plan to Dominate America’s Cannabis Trade | Official Trailer

About this video

The guest discusses alleged Chinese involvement in illegal cannabis cultivation in the United States, claiming that 80-90% of illegal grow sites are Chinese-owned. The guest argues this is part of a strategic plan by China, in partnership with Mexican cartels, to amass untraceable cash to eventually replace the US dollar with Chinese currency by 2035. The guest also discusses how changes in administration and sanctuary state policies have allegedly allowed cartels to operate more freely in the cannabis trade.

Key takeaways
