drug of choice

Today, Kellyanne Conway lectured America and tried her darndest to sarcastically prove a point, that THE TRUMP WALL, was, in fact, an ideal, not just an idea whose time MUST arrive the sooner the better. Kellyanne, in yet another snarky and insincere venture into the world of Tweeting (The new means by which Government policy is established) first warned us of the insatiable monster called Fentanyl, proclaiming that if you haven’t discovered its potential wickedness, you must stop everything you are doing and become aware, and then reminded us that it was the glorious work of the US Border Patrol which indeed saved America from a narcotics disaster which could devour our nation. As is the approach by anyone associated with Trump, major details and major facts, were omitted, replaced with ineffectual and indulgent “I told you so’s.” Agents on Saturday found 254 lbs. (114kg) of fentanyl, as well as 395 lbs. of methamphetamine in a lorry at an official US-Mexico border crossing. According to the US Centers for Disease Control, fentanyl is the drug most involved in fatal overdoses around the country, accounting for around 18,000 deaths in 2016. The seizure of this drug was NOT in some secluded area of the desert, but at a point of entry to the US, a location which, can and should fight the illegal trade of drugs. But Kellyanne, doing Trump’s bidding was hoping to scare the shit out of most Americans, inciting a fear so great as to acknowledge the NECESSITY of the TRUMP WALL, and hinting of some pre-conceived national Emergency.  As is par for the ANYONE TRUMP lemming, use fear, less fact, form a phobia, and ferment enough misinformation as to confuse the most common of people, and wham bam thank you ma’am somehow, NONSENSE, makes sense and the Russian Compromised Agent sitting in the Oval Office, hacked and used as a stooge is suddenly a Patriot, saving America from God knows who and what!

But meanwhile, on the northern side of the, we must have the TRUMP WALL to protect this nation from drugs:  The Sackler family paid themselves $4,273,489,182 in profits from opioid sales from 2008 and 2016 while over 235,000 Americans died of opioid overdoses
Board members at the Sackler owned Purdue Pharma and Sackler’s continued to promote high doses of Oxycontin, despite the risks of addiction, as they yielded the best profit
The unredacted 275-page complaint was released on Thursday despite objections from the Sackler family 
The Centers for Disease Control have found reported that deaths from opioid overdoses have increased every single year this century in the United States 
Sackler-owned Purdue Pharma took home $600,000 annually for their work with the company according to the complaint.

We had Nancy Reagan’s “just say no”, the DOJ’s “War on Drugs,” Jeff Sessions insistence that Marijuana is the gateway to crime and criminal activities and possibly the downfall of the American government… The constant battle of the Drug cartel’s originating from the caves and castles of people with brown skin…We have permitted a lax involvement from the FDA, continued to allow the sales of tobacco…And throughout this nation’s history permitted those with Lobby influence, those whose dark money payments to politicians never let honest and fair attention to the issue of DRUGS see the light of day, DECIDE the fate of millions of American’s lives…and NO REAL attempt by either political party has surfaced to face this problem. But NOW, the MAGA moron and his minions of STUPID, have decided that the ONLY way to stop any drugs from infecting this nation is a WALL. A WALL built from one purpose only, as a statement of bigotry and bias from a bogus bull shitter whose only real talent is to pedal fear in the form of snake oil!
