Seattle newspeople get their chance to ask questions. They play the role of law enforcement public affairs staff instead.
The giant and expensive (since 2002) US Dept. of Homeland Security appears to be irrelevant here.
Questions That Went Unasked
Is the fentanyl situation in WA any different today than it was under Biden?
What role does the US Dept. of Homeland Security play in preventing cartel product from arriving in the Puget Sound area?
Have efforts made by the Secretary of Homeland Security in recent months created any shortage of fentanyl in the Puget Sound area?
Are Puget Sound area first responders finding any less need for Narcan, buprenorphine, Naloxone, fentanyl test strips, or any similar product used in overdose response situations?
Are Seattle area drug addicts having any difficulty finding their cartel product of choice?
Did the advantage of designating cartels as terrorist organizations back on Feb 20, 2025 reduce the availability of fentanyl in the Puget Sound area?
Did the use of DOD ground units and US Navy assets create any shortage of cartel product in the Puget Sound area?
Has the good work of the K9 teams contributed to any shortage of cartel product in the Puget Sound area?
Well done on the operation below.
US Dept. of Homeland Security played no role in preventing cartel product from arriving in Washington State?
Drug gangs in WA have no cartel product to work with until that product is able to move past the jurisdiction of federal agents at borders, border crossings and ports of entry/REAL ID checks and a barrier of DOD ground units, US Navy and US Coast Guard vessels prior to arriving in Hometown, USA.
