Misleading headline.
"But the agency’s own data from recent years on its confiscation of packages containing drugs coming through international mail provides scant evidence that a significant number of opioids enters this way."
No shit. Who is sending opioids via international mail?! How stupid does CNN think we are? How stupid does CNN think drug smugglers are?! They are being waltzed across our porous southern border.
- vajrabum 4y agoOh, you mean the border where the seizures of fentanyl are at record level and almost of what comes in, comes through the ports of entry in trucks and not some random spot on the border on somebody's back just like you'd expect?
- jeffbee 4y agoThere are ten million doses of fentanyl to the kilo. Why would you even need a truck? You could walk it across in your pocket.
- starkd 4y agoWhat gets confiscated at ports of entry is only a small fraction of the total that is out there. It is very easy to purchase fentanyl from illegal dealer right now and cheap. That is probably the best way to measure how porous the border truly is.
