Though there’s a small chance he could out bench-press me, investigative reporter Ioan Grillo and I are kindred spirits. He’s a British ex-pat living in Mexico City, who focuses on cartels. I highly recommend his Substack, CrashOut. He’s also an expert on the flow of guns. His latest book
Wow. It's just so cool to see you guys out there spreading some truth. Your courage is most commendable. I am an addict in recovery so topics like this are a passion of mine. I've fallen out at least a couple of dozen times, but somehow through the grace of God, I am still here. I wish I could say the same about many dear friends and people I've worked with in the recovery field. Most recently I was living in the Boston area and associated with one of the largest programs in the city. What this drug is doing to our communities is borderline apocalyptic in my opinion. I find it very interesting that 9/11, which was said to be the deadliest attack in U.S. history killed just over 3,000 people and our "response" was what somw might call a global crusade, yet the Fentanyl crisis, which kills over 100,000 American's a year, goes seemingly unchecked. Unless we are to believe that all of a sudden the fentanyl fairy is just sprinkling this poison over our country I think that there are some very important "issues" that need to be brought to life. As we seem to be on the brink of YET ANOTHER GLOBAL WAR I have to question the intentions of who and what are influencing our D.C. agenda. It's heroes like the both of you that give me strength and hope and you both deserve Medals of Honor in my humble opinion. I myself , think it's time to stand up to this SLAUGHTER of so so many beautiful people! God bless both of you.✌️🙏♥️☀️

Great to talk to you Ben. Your work on fentanyl has been extremely important and continues to teach me a lot.
