I asked AI: What is Volume of Drugs on US Streets since Trump's Latest war on drugs?
AI response:Evidence is mixed and contested. While the Trump administration cites a 22% drop in synthetic opioid deaths in 2025 and significant reductions in certain seizure data, independent experts and federal data suggest these metrics do not prove a clear reduction in the overall volume of drugs available on U.S. streets.
Fentanyl and Opioids
CDC data shows fentanyl-related deaths fell from 48,913 in 2024 to 38,084 in 2025, and the DEA reports that only 29% of seized fentanyl pills contained a lethal dose, down from 76% two years earlier. However, a study in Science notes that the fentanyl crisis was already turning the corner before Trump took office, with death rates plunging by one-third between mid-2023 and late 2024. Experts attribute this decline to a complex mix of factors, including the civil war within the Sinaloa cartel in Mexico, the widespread availability of the overdose antidote naloxone, and potential disruptions in supply chains, rather than solely U.S. enforcement actions.
Cocaine and Sea Trafficking
Claims that the administration cut drug flow by sea by 97–98% are unsupported by federal data. A Washington Post-revealed DEA evaluation concluded that the military boat strikes in the Caribbean and Pacific did not produce an appreciable reduction in cocaine prices or availability in the U.S. While maritime interdiction disrupted specific routes, traffickers adapted by using large shipping containers and land routes, keeping cocaine widely available. SAMHSA data confirms that cocaine consumption rates in the US have remained statistically unchanged between 2021 and 2025.
----------------------------------
Which means that the demand by white America for cocaine remains unchanged, which implies that the supply of drugs also remains unchanged, and that Trump's "warrior-like" killings of small boat operators is mostly intended as a propaganda ploy.
The fact that the gun smuggler below is a white American police officer suggests a systemic network of guns versus drugs smuggling between white American officialdom and the Latin drug cartels, and that all the drug-fighting propaganda by Trump is nothing but a cover for his Brown-skin culling racist campaign and machinery to "bleach" America white. I bet you many of the Trump Admin officials, high-placed buddies, financial criminal advisors... are cocaine snorters. who hate the very drug smugglers who supply them with their fixes.

Yanet Dowden
US citizen Yanet Dowden was arrested near the Arizona border by Mexican police for allegedly transporting arms and ammunition for the Sinaloa Cartel.
A US citizen was arrested near the Arizona border by Mexican police on Friday. She was allegedly transporting arms and ammunition for the Sinaloa Cartel, Fox 10 Phoenix says.
Yanet Dowden, 22, was detained on September 11, 2026, as part of patrols conducted on the border crossing between San Luis Río Colorado, Sonora, and San Luis, Arizona. The authorities claim that she acted as a logistics operator for the Los Mayos branch of the cartel.
5,445 rounds of 7.62×39 mm ammunition were seized from the back of her Jeep Wrangler, stored below the seat covers. This type of ammo is utilized in AK-type rifles. Some sources also refer to firearms. The officials estimate the value of the ammunition and the car at 1.65 million pesos and consider the raid a strike against the ammunition supply chain of the cartel in northern Mexico.
Arizona Department of Corrections ID card, which identifies her as Correctional Officer II, a mid-rank, was found in her possession. Authorities are now checking the ID's legitimacy and her employment status.
The Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation and Reentry, which employs more than 10,000 people and operates 13 state prisons, did not comment.
The Navy Secretariat conducted the raid with assistance from the Secretariat of National Defense, the National Guard, the Attorney General's Office, and the Secretariat of Security and Citizen Protection. Dowden was informed of her rights and transferred to a federal prosecutor to decide her legal status and whether to open an investigation, Arizona's Family says.
