| We were successfully able to shut off all 13 precursors that make fentanyl and regulate fully seven additional chemicals that alter fentanyl to make it a lethal, addictive drug that it is. | |
| And that pipeline being shut off is forcing drug traffickers to scramble, which we're seeing, for alternatives. | |
| And here's the good news. | |
| They know and we know there aren't any. | |
| That's why we came up with this list. | |
| Interesting. | |
| So you're actually seeing right now drug traffickers scrambling. | |
| Can you expand on that a little bit? | |
| So generally, without getting into the classified nature of the material we have access to, we can see reflections from what the drug trafficking organizations, say, down in Mexico and Colombia and Venezuela and elsewhere are doing, the guys that are making the fentanyl. | |
| We know where they are. | |
| We know who they are. | |
| We know how they do it. | |
| And when we surveil and monitor and investigate these folks, we see that they are complaining about not having the necessary ingredients and mechanics to make fentanyl. | |
| That is an immediate impact that they haven't complained about in years. | |
| And I just want to remind folks that during the first Trump administration, remember the problem was the production of fentanyl in mainland China, which President Trump successfully shut off. | |
| And the Chinese government adhered to that component. |
