Federal drug agents seized enough fentanyl in 2022 to kill every American: 379million potentially fatal doses in 12 months

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]

The Drug Enforcement Agency said it seized 50.6million fake prescription pills

Fentanyl is cheap and easy to produce so is a big player in illegal drugs market

Potentially fatal dose is just 2mg and caused over 100,000 deaths in US last year

Cheap and easy to make, fentanyl replaced prescription opioids and heroin in the illegal drugs market

The DEA said the primary sources of fentanyl in the United States are the Sinaloa and Jalisco Mexican drug cartels.

Their fentanyl is manufactured in Mexico with chemicals 'largely sourced in China,' according to the DEA.

Some of it is distributed widely in the form of counterfeit prescription drugs like Percocet, OxyContin and Xanax, they said.

Some 60 percent of the counterfeit drugs laced with fentanyl that were tested by the DEA contained potentially lethal fentanyl doses, it said.

When will the Great DC Flush start?

We must legally rid our government of the Socialist Liberals that aren't even following their oath of office, the US Constitution and the written law?

#4 Based on the 2 mg fatal dose, that’s 738 kilograms or 1,627 lbs of pure fentanyl. A 3/4 ton truck could haul it in one trip. Buy a two ton if you don’t want to draw attention on the highway. I have only hauled honest materials, but weight is weight.

They do self-select... but then they’re likely to be “otherwise occupied” on election day, M.
