Defining the word, fiasco

DEA’s most corrupt agent: Parties, sex amid ‘unwinnable war

The way Irizarry tells it, dozens of other federal agents, prosecutors, informants and in some cases cartel smugglers themselves were all in on the three-continent joyride known as “Team America” that chose cities for money laundering pick-ups mostly for party purposes or to coincide with Real Madrid soccer or Rafael Nadal tennis matches.

The whole sad story here.

And folks, this is not a partisan story. The whole "war on drugs" dates back to the Nixon administration in 1971, and continues through the alternating reigns of both political parties. Deriliction of leadership is what we're seeing here. 

And gobs of misspent money.
