LMAO, he called out the hypocritical democrats like Pelosi. That stupid bitch screams “no walls!” yet lives in a gated community! And what was up with her and all the other women wearing white? Oh yeah - following their forefathers in the KKK. I especially love how he had those women from Angel Mom’s there, whom that bitch Pelosi also refused to meet with. GO TRUMP!!! Finally, a president who gives a damn about our country!
For Trump, that may be a timeline of no consequence to his political career. But his inaction and indifference is already part of a broader political legacy likely to be remembered in decades to come.
Trump may be right that most illicit drugs trafficked into the U.S. enter through the U.S.-Mexican border. But history suggests he is wrong that a wall would stop that flow. Decades of failed efforts show that enforcement at the border and interdiction efforts alone have minimal impact on flow of drugs in the country and consumption overall.“The notion that we’re going to fix America’s drug problem by building a wall is just a fantasy,“ said Ethan Nadelmann, executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance, an advocacy organization in support of drug policy reform.
Reliable data on the flow of illicit drugs is scarce, but the data that is available does suggest that a large share of the drugs that enter the U.S. each year do so across the Mexican border. Based on data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, 97.4 percent of the department’s marijuana seizures during the 2016 fiscal year took place at the southwest border. Around 89.8 percent of cocaine and 87.8 percent of heroin seizures also occurred at the Mexican border. (These figures don’t take into account drugs grown or manufactured in the U.S.)
Most traffickers, however, aren’t climbing over fences at the border or carrying in illegal drugs by foot. The Drug Enforcement Administration says Mexican criminal networks transport the majority of their goods in vehicles or tractor trailers by using legal ports of entry. Drugs are often smuggled in concealed compartments or commingled with other goods.
"I believe the time has come to bring that investigation and the other investigations of this matter to an end. One year of Watergate is enough!"
"If there is going to be peace and legislation, there cannot be war and investigation." -Donald J. Trump, SOTU 2019
