U.N. Address by Trump: Drug Seizure in Baghdad and Scope of Problem


From The Last English Prince:

President Trump speaks.  The world listens.  And yes, the global drug trafficking snakes through, and is also trafficked by Muslim citizens.
The security services haul of drugs seized?  375 pounds.  Additional images showed pills, but the pharmacological make-up was not identified.
So that handful of  narcotics, amphetamines, Xanax, or whatever your kid is gulping down might not have been produced in the U.S.A.  in “MAGA” lore factories.  Your kid might be popping a pill which has traveled across multiple borders to reach a U.S. market which is based on predatory practices aggressively launched against your schoolchild.
Your child’s drug addiction may not be “your fault”.  There are multiple fault lines upstream which have produced this tragedy. Shutdown the kingpins.  Shut down the pipelines.
The Last English Prince does have to add a flank of thought.  If drugs flow so easily across our own borders, the drugs present as the canary in the coal mine.
Lack of secure borders is sucking the oxygen out of the citizens.
President Trump? Let him lead.
