"...at least 70 tons of precursor chemicals." Wow. Culiacan, by the way, is in Sinaloa, which is really down in the middle of the west coast of Mexico. Some of the drugs from there go to cartel groups in the U.S. Midwest by way of New Mexico and other states, though, according to news here and there. At least some of the precursor chemicals come from China for processing in Mexico.

The opium came from the British, not the US.

I was around in the McNeil Pharmaceutical adulterated Tylenol tampering. If someone gets fentanyl into the over the counter drug or food chain they could kill a lot of people.
I personally think that fentanyl is a tool for population control. Cheaper and less messy than bullets and blood.

Those numbers are GREATLY exaggerated, but your point survives without a doubt. Individual doses will kill hundreds of Americans every day and it's paid for by illegals sneaking 20 lb bags across the border to pay-off the coyotes that Biden/Harris loves so much.
The death of western civilization is at hand.

The Opium War is seen in China as the original sin of Western imperialism in which the Chinese people were the blameless victims of the West. In China’s catechism, the Opium War signifies the beginning of “a century of humiliation” during which China was bullied by the West.
Further.....Trade Profits enriched not only British and Chinese businessmen, but Americans and traders from the Indian subcontinent as well. ..... some of the first American fortunes were made in the China trade.

That's a good point. It doesn't take much to kill. Why don't they use it for executions? It seems it would work better than anything they are using now.

The mainstream media would never report it, but I’m sure they also found evidence of occult practice in these warehouse along with the drugs. The violent drug cartels are always tied to occult religions like Santeria and Santo Muerte (“Holy Death”). They regularly offer victims as sacrifices and place curses on the drugs they sell and on those who take them.
The Mexican state of Sinaloa where this bust occurred is a hotspot for a cultic figure name Jesus Malverde:
Jesus Malverde, a folk saint who may have been a bandit in 19th century Mexico, is known as the patron of drug dealers. Malverde -- mustachioed and dressed in black trousers and a traditional cream-colored collared shirt -- is seen as a Robin Hood figure, a beaten-down thief who steals to give to the poor. According to legend, when was fatally shot and knew he he was to die, he told his accomplices to turn him in to authorities and collect the bounty, then share it with the poor.
Malverde has a chapel dedicated to him in Culiacán, a city in the state of Sinaloa, also the eponymous cartel’s home. Kingpin Joaquín Guzmán Loera, also known as “El Chapo,” is said to have visited, and other famous traffickers like Rafael Caro Quintero have also allegedly passed through to ask for protection.

I guess the Sinaloa cartel forgot to make their monthly payment to the “authorities”.
