Fentanyl is primarily trafficked by U.S. citizens.

The U.S. Sentencing Commission publishes data on all federal convictions, which includes demographic information on individuals convicted of fentanyl trafficking.

Figure 1 shows the citizenship status of fentanyl traffickers for 2018 to 2021. Every year, U.S. citizens receive the most convictions by far.

In 2021, U.S. citizens accounted for 86.3 percent of fentanyl trafficking convictions compared to just 8.9 percent for illegal immigrants.

Over 90 percent of fentanyl seizures occur at legal crossing points or interior vehicle checkpoints, not on illegal migration routes, so U.S. citizens (who are subject to less scrutiny) when crossing legally are the best smugglers.

Just 0.02 percent of the people arrested by Border Patrol for crossing illegally possessed any fentanyl whatsoever.



But not everyone believes that's the full story.

Not everyone has the benefit of a good education and sanity.

No, dear boy, the cartels are using American citizens.

They make up 95% of those arrested, charged and sentenced for smuggling fentanyl, so I'm curious.

Which part of this do you find hard to fathom?

Is it the findings? The arrests? The sentences?

Or is it that previously-cherished platform of yours, once known and loved as the rule of law?

Facts, truth, justice, and the American way. You used to love them ever so.

You know, before you passed away.

So unfair, no?

Texas and Arizona are facing the brunt of this invasion. Farming families are under siege from hundreds of fit, young males crossing their property and small towns are being inundated. So-called ‘human stash houses’ are regularly found in the Rio Grande Valley. Yet when Texas implements measures to stop the illegal crossings, such as barbed-wire fencing, the Biden administration launches legal appeals through the Supreme Court to have them removed.  That’s right. Instead of working with their own state governments and the interests of the average American, to protect their own sovereignty, they work against them. Only one conclusion can be drawn: this invasion is by design.

If this is how the US government treats its own country, what is it saying to its allies during one of the most volatile global environments since prior to World War II?

Another consequence of US failed national security on its southern border is fentanyl. Working through Mexican drug cartels, on an industrial scale, Chinese entities supply the precursor chemicals for fentanyl. Fentanyl is being weaponised to weaken the fabric of American society. The US China Economic and Security Review Commission reports the CCP has promoted the production and export of drugs to undermine the US. Just two milligrams of the synthetic opioid, the equivalent of 10 to 15 grains of table salt, can be lethal. The Centers for Disease Control estimate over 100,000 Americans died from fentanyl in 2022.

It’s hard to find a comparable First World nation that has been so reckless. For the West’s adversaries it is ripe for exploitation with new ways of war. Why take on Goliath’s strength with strength when cunning can beat it. The real question is why the US is allowing this to happen.

The take back the border caravan got to 100K from the border and stopped because of safety fears. A few brave souls went on the the border, They were lucky as they were there to see a swarm of 3 people cross the border that day. They later admitted to being a little underwhelmed.

They're rapists, murderers, they bring in drugs and some, I assume, are good people.

Good show, dear boy. We'll strike the third off your list.

Alas, we remember intelligence and integrity. Those were the days, no?

If you are ever wrong, you'll confess, recant and mend the error of your ways. It's just the kind of chap you are. Superior culture, innit.

How do we know?

You said.

So-called ‘human stash houses’ are regularly found in the Rio Grande Valley. Yet when Texas implements measures to stop the illegal crossings, such as barbed-wire fencing, the Biden administration launches legal appeals through the Supreme Court to have them removed.  That’s right. Instead of working with their own state governments and the interests of the average American, to protect their own sovereignty, they work against them. Only one conclusion can be drawn: this invasion is by design.

If this is how the US government treats its own country, what is it saying to its allies during one of the most volatile global environments since prior to World War II?


Another consequence of US failed national security on its southern border is fentanyl. Working through Mexican drug cartels, on an industrial scale, Chinese entities supply the precursor chemicals for fentanyl. Fentanyl is being weaponised to weaken the fabric of American society. The US China Economic and Security Review Commission reports the CCP has promoted the production and export of drugs to undermine the US. Just two milligrams of the synthetic opioid, the equivalent of 10 to 15 grains of table salt, can be lethal. The Centers for Disease Control estimate over 100,000 Americans died from fentanyl in 2022.

It’s hard to find a comparable First World nation that has been so reckless. For the West’s adversaries it is ripe for exploitation with new ways of war. Why take on Goliath’s strength with strength when cunning can beat it. The real question is why the US is allowing this to happen.

"Over 90 percent of fentanyl seizures occur at legal crossing points or interior vehicle checkpoints, not on illegal migration routes, so U.S. citizens (who are subject to less scrutiny) when crossing legally are the best smugglers."


... how does the vast quantity of illegal, uncaught fentanyl, mostly manufactured in China and Mexio,  get in, slime ball?


American citizens smuggle it in.


You ignored the pertinent bit, slime ball.


He's right, Greggery. You forgot the pertinent bit about stopping illegals to prevent 5% of fentanyl getting in.

Typical.

Texas and Arizona are facing the brunt of this invasion. Farming families are under siege from hundreds of fit, young males crossing their property and small towns are being inundated.

Thank goodness American citizens have the other 95% covered.
