Bolivia announced its second largest cocaine bust in history in March. An individual only identified as the “seller” has been allowed to enter the United States.

Reuters has thus far declined to publish the identity of the alleged narcotics trafficker, raising questions about the protection drug traffickers receive from international press, foreign nations, and even the United States.

The alleged narco-trafficker is reportedly a politically-connected, Ultra High Net Worth Individual (UHNWI), with key access to high-level travel and logistics operations into and out of key South American port cities, by land, water, and air.

National File has extensively covered the tangible links between US Intelligence Agencies, SOUTHCOM/SOCSOUTH, South American Narco-Oligarchs, Narco-Propogandists, high-profile globalistNarco-Assets – and even a Heritage Foundation-connected Narco-Cult.

While covering the South American Narcotics trafficking beat, National File began to notice a disturbing, sustained pattern of consistently covering up key pieces of information an average reader would consider not only pertinent but central to the news coverage.

The most disturbing aspect of the apparent cover-up operation is that it was being executed by large, corporatize media giants, including the Rothschild-linked Reuters, and the taxpayer funded British Broadcasting Commission (BBC). It is no exaggeration to describe the occlusive behavior as something akin to a narco protection-racket.

The cover-up operation boils down to covering part of a story, and in doing so, being able to credibly make the claim that you covered the story, while leaving out key elements, which would help interested parties — such as other partner governments — crack down on illegality.

The practice is known as a “Limited Hangout,” a term coined by Richard Nixon, and made more famous of late by Whitney Webb.

This limited hangout operation has continued in recent years, this time with Reuters squarely in the media and law enforcement’s accountability crosshairs.

After Bolivia uncovered a mammoth half-billion dollar bust on their soil — their second largest sting in history — Reuters hopped right to it, and got busy “covering” the story.

The Bolivian interdiction, as is often typical of busts of this size originating from Latin America, once again has strong links to the U.S. Government.

Indeed, the alleged perpetrator of the $500 Million drug bust bolted for cover straight to the United States.

The exfiltration by the alleged giga-Narco trafficker out of Bolivia and into the United States comes at a time when the Biden administration is presiding over an unprecedented invasion of U.S. soil by criminal illegal aliens of many nationalities through the southern border with Mexico.

Bolivia’s Interior Minister Eduardo Del Castillo remarked on the deadly Bolivian crack-cocaine loot during a 24-minute press conference, saying “that the seller of the drugs had fled the country (Bolivia) to the United States…”

It is clear Bolivia’s Interior Minister knows the identity of the US-tied “elite” narco trafficker.

For reasons that are as yet unclear, neither the Bolivian government, the U.S. government nor globalist media has decided to publicly identify this obviously central individual, the perpetrator of massive narcotics trafficking.

The mechanics behind the clear omission of the perpetrator’s identity by all law enforcement and media entities involved, and their complicity in allowing a known narco-trafficker safe-passage into the United States is a glaringly conspicuous omission none of the players has been willing to comment on.

Reuters has thus far refused to name the protected, US-tied individual.

Reuters has so far refused to explain how this apparent narco-felon was able to enter the U.S. homeland seemingly without issue, despite given ample opportunity over a sustained period of time to do so.

Reuters’ “reporters” have shamelessly rebuffed multiple attempts from this reporter and the team at National File, including National File’s Publisher, Noel Fritsch and ex-Goldman Sachs investment banker and self-styled counter-narcotics operative, Luke Thorburn-Calcino, to get to the bottom of the matter.

The questions National File put to Reuters were polite and straightforward.

In the interest of public safety, Luke and Noel’s basic questionnaire for Reuters’ alleged narco-protectors, Uruguay’s Lucinda Elliott and Mexico’s Valentine Hilaire, follows immediately below and in the miscellaneous email and LinkedIn screengrabs thereafter.

Also enclosed for public transparency and proper governance is the detailed correspondence between Thorburn, Fritsch, and Reuters’ Elliott-Hilaire, who ran point on Reuters’ cover-up:

Saliently, National File has multiple degrees of connectivity to Reuters and others in both the liberal and conservative mainstreams on the topic of “coverage” of large-scale, transnational, institutionalized narco trafficking – and National File will continue to risk not just the left’s “Cancel Culture,” but literal life and limb, to ask the hard questions on behalf of an interested American and global public citizenry.

Exposing an elite, government-tied narco trafficker is evidently a potato too hot for the journalists at Thomson Reuters to handle.
