Kroger to pay $47.5 million to Washington state to combat fentanyl crisis

“Ferguson said half of the resources will go to the state and the other half will to Washington city and county governments.”

Government profits when a $51.6 billion (every 12 months) US Dept. of Homeland Security fails to keep fentanyl from arriving in Washington State.

The resolution brings the Washington AG’s office’s total recoveries directed to opioid abatement funding to more than $1.29 billion.”

Many comments are posted with the KOMO article above.

Prior To Kroger Court Action

Love to see newspeople take a look at what happened before the Kroger court action.

More than two decades of US Dept. of Homeland Security spending to keep bad people from coming here to try another 911, etc.

50 years of Drug Enforcement Administration spending.

Used to be able to go to Canada for lunch with just a standard driver’s license. What got better?

Standard driver’s licenses have not been accepted at border crossings and ports of entry since 2009.

 

Was local CPB ever able to create any shortage of cartel product in the Puget Sound area?

Port Angeles CBP – Cartel Product and Seattle Overdose Trends

Newspeople play along by not ask questions.

After a Port Angeles CBP buildup that took place more than a decade ago, is there any follow up made by the press to inform the public on whatever results have been achieved? Any interviews with top level CBP personnel or elected officials?

Zero questions from small or large newspapers? Zero questions from TV newspeople?

Real newspeople and some Americans may 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?

Have opioid lawsuits played any role in improving the situation?

How do cartels react to opioid lawsuits?

 

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.

April 1, 2020 C-SPAN

WWII costume reminds us of a time before decades of undeclared/unwon wars stacked up.

The Department of Defense track record goes back to 1949.

The uniparty and the press appear to be OK with undeclared/unwon wars.

 

JFK speaks about the role of the press in a free society:

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:
