DEA Administrator: China ‘Knows' Its Chemicals Are Used to Make Fentanyl, It ‘Needs to Do More'
[Breitbart] During an interview aired on Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s "At This Hour," DEA Administrator Anne Milgram said that China "knows" chemicals from its country are being shipped to Latin America and used to make fentanyl and that "China needs to do more" to stop this.
Someone please tell me, where do they find feckless, naive, young twits such as this Milgram person ?
Host Kate Bolduan asked, "You’ve called fentanyl one of the most deadly substances on the planet. And we talk about what it is doing, how it is getting here, and why it is such a problem. There are two places: China and Mexico. On China, the chemicals for these poisons come from China. Why isn’t China stopping it?"

Milgram answered, "So, that’s the right question to ask, and China needs to do more, there is no question. Right now, China has a largely unregulated chemical industry and those chemicals are being shipped on a daily basis to Mexico and to other countries in Latin America where they’re being brought to Mexico. So, the first question is exactly the right question. We know this is happening. China knows it’s happening and it has to be stopped, and it’s a critical point. Because, as I said, if those chemicals can’t get to Mexico, the criminal drug cartels in Mexico won’t be able to make fentanyl and meth. And so, it is a critical upstream part of our work."

#1 ....."the chemicals for these poisons come from China. Why isn’t China stopping it?”

You mean like the COVID WMD ?

If only the US had a Navy...a will to do something about it.

#2 "China needs to do more" to halt shipments, eh?

What makes you think they aren't doing everything in their power to ramp up shipments?

#5 Well IF the US commercial world was within the US borders itself and the basic citizen needed items and supplies were made here We might have a say.

But due to DC's 100,000+ reg's and taxes, our commercial industry has found China, a Communist controlled county, easier to deal with to make a profit.

#6 The Big Guy is most certainly getting a cut, most likely via one of Hunter's companies.

#8 "Needs to do more" here isn't meaning what people would like it to mean.

What it means is US Gov is going to hand out pipes.
