A drug enforcement official is emphasizing the importance of the Trump administration’s illegal alien deportation crackdowns in combating the drug crisis.
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) was fighting an uphill battle under the Biden-Harris administration, as open borders fueled America’s opioid epidemic. But that’s finally turning around, according to Special Agent in Charge for the Rocky Mountain Division of the DEA Jonathan Pullen. Donald Trump is encouraging the DEA to go after drug criminals as hard as possible, including illegal aliens.
