Hard to find much info on this flashing blue light surveillance camera mast in the parking lot. This unit has been in place for an extended period of time.

Random questions: What was the original intention behind installing this unit? Have things improved since the unit was installed here? Is the feed monitored like cameras at a casino? Is it just there to capture video that may or may not be reviewed later? Do customers feel more or less secure when seeing this set up as they pull in?

More internet access than ever, but sometimes it feels like less information is actually available.

Family grieves after fentanyl deaths

Clallam County looking at more overdose deaths than previous years

“In Clallam County, there were at least 26 fatal overdose deaths from all drugs, 13 of which had fentanyl present. Another 21 suspected overdose deaths are still awaiting confirmation from the crime lab.”

“With the pending suspected overdoses, Clallam County is looking at 47 fatal drug overdoses in 2023, “which is significantly higher than any year we’ve had in the past,” Millet said.

“Law enforcement agencies at all levels are doing quite a bit, but stemming the flow of fentanyl into the U.S. is proving difficult. According to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency, many of the chemicals used to make fentanyl originate mainly in China but also India, and are processed and smuggled into the country by Mexican drug cartels.”

Real newspeople and some Americans might ask:

Would the DEA be out of work if a $51.6 billion (every 12 months) US Dept. of Homeland Security was able to keep cartel product from showing up in all 50 states?

Love to see newspeople ask:

Have opioid lawsuits played any role in improving the situation?

How do cartels react to opioid lawsuits?

Has a $51.6 billion (every 12 months) US Dept. of Homeland Security created any shortage of opioids in the Puget Sound area?

Are newspeople forbidden to ask questions related to Homeland Security funding and performance?

Welcome Home Troops

Thanks for doing time/risking your ass in Iraq and Afghanistan, working to keep a post 911 USA safe & secure.

Don’t worry-The Super Bowl and public affairs will be safe:

Has General Milley’s Operation Macho Swagger reduced access to cartel product anywhere in the US?

Has there been enough time for newspeople to ask questions?

Newspeople remain silent.

Port Angeles – Zero Questions From Newspeople?

Unlike many cities of its size, Port Angeles maintains a significant Homeland Security/CBP/Border Patrol presence.

Newspeople have a long history of not asking questions in this area.

New Port Angeles USBP Station opened more than a decade ago. Has the new station been able to prevent cartel drugs from entering the Olympic Peninsula?

Newspeople remain silent.

If you run a government operation-these are the reporters you want to see on interview day:
