In the Godfather movie, younger generation of the Corleone did try to go legit.
Is the Sinaloa Cartel also trying to go legit? Is it to plot "to let the rival Jalisco
New Generation Cartel, another leading fentanyl producer, take the fall for the
drug"?

May be the warning was just Sinaloa Cartel PR effort in response to louder
and louder US voice on using military force.

"And yet here we are: There is a growing chorus of U.S. lawmakers, pundits, and presidential candidates
proposing the United States use military force on Mexico’s sovereign territory, without Mexico’s permission
if necessary, in order to combat drug cartels. In the early days of the 118th Congress, two Republican
representatives introduced an Authorization for Use of Military Force bill to empower the military to conduct
operations in Mexico against cartels. “We must start treating [the cartels] like ISIS,” explained one of the bill’s
sponsors, Rep. Dan Crenshaw. Sen. Lindsey Graham followed their lead, telling Fox News that he would “tell
the Mexican government, if you don’t clean up your act, we’re going to clean it up for you.” And at the first two
Republican presidential debates, multiple candidates embraced the idea of using military force on Mexican
soil as well. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis pledged to use military force in Mexico on “day one” of his hypothetical
presidency. Even the supposedly moderate Nikki Haley proposed delivering an ultimatum to Mexico’s
president on the use of U.S. military force on Mexican soil while on the campaign trail: “You know what you
tell the Mexican president? Either you do it, or we do it.”
