What part of this implies that it's just illegal Mexicans getting deported because I'm pretty sure that's a stretch? Also, pretty sure not everyone knows the cartel uses Mexican joints as shell corporations.

It implies that everybody that is Latin or Hispanic in America is here illegally, because there would be nobody to make tacos if they were all deported.

The second half was a joke that plays on the idea that no legitimate taqueria exists and they all are money laundering operations for illegal activity.

Fuck, all this taco talk has got me hankering for tacos.

I feel like you're missing a core part of the joke. It is not just illegal immigrants getting deported so this reads more to me like "you can't target everyone without broad consequences" and uses food as an example for comedic effect.
