Pablo Escobar‘s former hitman “Popeye” bankrolled this year’s congressional campaign of the members of the coalition of President-elect Ivan Duque, local media reported Monday.

Colombia’s chief prosecutor announced he would investigate alleged election fraud of multiple senators, including House Representative-elect Maria Margarita Restrepo.

The Medellin Cartel, again
Being linked to “Popeye,” one of the Medellin Cartel’s most notorious killers, is a political disaster for Duque.

The president-elect has repeatedly stressed that he is of a new generation, and not associated with traditional politicians’ habitual election fraud and ties to organized crime.

This is the source of the funding of the man who just won Colombia's Presidential election. He served Pablo Escobar:

Pablo Emilio Escobar Gaviria (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈpaβ̞lo eˈmiljo eskoˈβ̞aɾ ɣ̞aˈβ̞iɾja]; 1 December 1949 – 2 December 1993) was a Colombian drug lord and narcoterrorist. His cartel supplied an estimated 80% of the cocaine smuggled into the United States at the height of his career, turning over US $21.9 billion a year in personal income.[2][3] He was often called "The King of Cocaine" and was the wealthiest criminal in history, with an estimated known net worth of US $30 billion by the early 1990s (equivalent to about $56 billion as of 2017),[4][better source needed] making him one of the richest men in the world in his prime.[5][6]

2. And Popeye isn't in jail like forever? Why?

3. Trump congratulates Duque for winning Colombia's election

by Adriaan Alsema June 25, 2018

US President Donald Trump called Ivan Duque on Monday to congratulate Colombia’s President-elect and discuss “security challenges,” White House spokesperson Sarah Huckabee Sanders said.

. . .

Trump’s phone call came days after his vice-president, Mike Pence, called Duque and hours after the Office of National Drug Control Policy rang the alarm over record cocaine production in the South American country.

With Duque, Trump can count on more Colombian support for a hard-line approach on drug traffickers, including the forced eradication of coca, the base ingredient for cocaine, and the aerial spraying of pesticides over coca-growing regions.

. . .

Both the President-elect and the chief prosecutor have echoed US calls to increase aggressive methods in the lawless regions where illicit crops like coca, poppy or marijuana are the only economically viable crops.

Pablo Escobar's feared hitman 'Popeye' has broken his silence two years after leaving jail to claim he was never guilty of murder - and was in fact just another 'victim' of history's most notorious drug kingpin.

The 53-year-old, real name John Jairo Velasquez Vasquez, served a life sentence after admitting to killing 300 people and ordering the deaths of 3,000 more as he violently enforced Escobar's legendary reign of terror.

The Colombian, who is now in hiding fearing retribution from his victims' families, claims he is now ready to pen a tell-all memoir lifting the lid on his time in the Medellin Cartel, which left 600 police officers and thousands of civilians dead.

But despite his part in the carnage, Vasquez insists his victims were all casualties of 'the war', claiming on his newly-opened Facebook page that he is no murderer, but that 'the circumstances make the man'.
