CNN —A top Mexican cartel member known as ‘El Nini,’ who was one of America’s most-wanted criminals for his alleged role in the fentanyl trade, has been extradited to the United States. Biden has previously described El Nini as one of America’s most-wanted criminals. The US State Department offered a reward of up to $3 million for information leading to his arrest and he was detained in Mexico in November of last year. The State Department also said Pérez Salas was responsible for the security apparatus of Los Chapitos, a faction of the Sinaloa cartel. “I am grateful to our Mexican government counterparts for their extraordinary efforts in apprehending and extraditing El Nini,” US Attorney General Merrick Garland’s office said in a statement.

MEXICO CITY, Nov 22 (Reuters) - The Mexican National Guard on Wednesday captured Nestor Isidro Perez Salas, or "El Nini," who is accused of heading security for the faction of the Sinaloa Cartel headed by the sons of founder Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman. Seen by U.S. anti-narcotics agents as one of the most ruthless Mexican drug figures, Perez Salas was detained in Culiacan, the Sinaloa Cartel's heartlands, and was taken to Mexico City, according to government detention records. "We're working side-by-side to combat arms trafficking, to tackle organized crime and to address the opioid epidemic, including fentanyl," Biden said. The U.S. and Mexico also agreed with China last week to stem the flow of fentanyl precursor chemicals from the Asian country. In January, Mexican authorities captured Ovidio Guzman in Sinaloa and extradited him to the United States in September.

[1/5] Visitors attend the preview of the "Loving" exhibition, which shows photographs of men in love spanning from 1850s to 1950s from a collection of Hugh Nine hugs Neal Treadwell at the Rath Museum in Geneva, Switzerland, June 7, 2023. "Our mind reels at what might have been going through their heads at the time," said Nini, who with Treadwell has collected photographs of men in love for more than two decades. In 2020, the U.S. couple published "Loving", a volume with hundreds of snapshots and portraits of displays of love between men taken between the 1850s and 1950s. Nini and Treadwell first unearthed the photographs at flea markets and family archives, and later online and at auctions. "What we've discovered through this collection is that just like today, these men, these couples had friends, allies and family who supported them," Nini said.

☆ I'm the CEO of $560 million food brand Huel. I wear the same thing to work every day and always get 7.5 hours of sleep — here's what my morning routine is like.

Huel CEO James McMaster starts his morning with a workout and mutes his notifications while at work. If I'm boxing, I'm not thinking about anything else. I change into my Huel T-shirt and jeans, the outfit I wear each day when I'm working in the office. It's pretty much all I have at the Huel office. I prioritize verbal conversations during the early part of the day and then scan emails toward the end of the day.
