While President Biden made some mistakes and had failures, his first 100 days included a flawless vaccine rollout and an excellent US economy.

Your opinion that President Biden was ineffective is purely partisan politics.

Yes, a vaccine made personally by Trump.

IMHO - the need to cover Biden's ineptness is so great - you have to compare a year's drug bust with a single drug bust and because the year long one brought in more - it is somehow better.

There should have been more drug bust with an open border

The information provided in post #3 mentions previous drug bust, which should be taken into account when discussing this topic.

What you posted here is completely wrong.

The vaccine made during President Trump's administration was developed flawlessly. The Trump administration deserves credit for expediting the discovery and manufacturing of a vaccine in record time. Typically, this process takes 10 to 12 years; however, with the collaboration of pharmaceutical companies worldwide, it was accomplished in a year. The Trump administration deserves recognition for this achievement.

And just what do you have against a non mainstream conservative independent news source that publishes informative alternative new and facts for supporters of a political party bent on destroying America and becoming a subservient quazi independent nation under the leadership and protection of Putin's Russia?

Woah! What? That vaccine was rushed through without any testing, killing millions, causing autism, mutating our DNA, and disrupting 5G networks.

Sorry, I am a Republican at the end of the day.

I think what you have said is great idea.

But i think, In a Christian forum, individuals who identify as Christian should aim to be truthful and present accurate information. Or, do you believe this is too much to ask of those who claim to follow Jesus Christ?

I have been here since 2013 I think, I have watched Christianity change from a reasonably respected faith to a sub branch of a political party. I had the same questions years ago, now nothing surprises me. Anyhoo, don't mind me, I'm just a trouble maker.

Well his admin certainly does deserve praise for it's part in the process of expediting the testing which speed the development. That is very much undercut by the fact that the current administration is attacking the funding of the universities the developed the Mnra technology that allowed the vaccine in order to try to control them and force their compliance with their current wishes. Really puts a damper on that whole academic freedom thing.

The article is wrong and biased.

Another poster in post #3 provided citation after citation of other federal seizures, which are significantly larger than the one you mentioned. Do you want to acknowledge them, or simply repeat the misinformation from this biased article to fit your political narrative?

I apologize for your experience. However, I am not surprised at all. As a born-again Christian, I feel ashamed when I witness some self-proclaimed Christians compromising their values for political power and gain. Unfortunately, many Christians, including pastors and leaders, have swapped Christ's teachings for political power.

It's amazing what you can get for 30 pieces of silver these days.

Do you not understand the difference between 'the biggest" and "one of the biggest"?

Point to one thing in the OP that is factually incorrect...

From the DEA itself -

Largest Fentanyl Bust in DEA History: Authorities Seize Over 400 Kilograms of Fentanyl in Record-Shattering Operation


Federal authorities have arrested 16 individuals and seized record-breaking quantities of fentanyl, cash, firearms, and vehicles across multiple states, dismantling one of the largest and most dangerous drug trafficking organizations in U.S. history.​
“This historic drug seizure, led by the DEA, is a significant blow against the Sinaloa Cartel that removes poison from our streets and protects American citizens from the scourge of fentanyl,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “This Department of Justice will continue working with our law enforcement partners to dismantle every cartel network operating illegally in the United States.”​

Bondi announces ‘largest fentanyl bust in our nation’s history’


Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday touted the “largest fentanyl bust in our nation’s history” — a coordinated takedown spanning five states that recovered 11.5 kilos of fentanyl, including about 3 million fentanyl-laced pills labeled as oxycodone that led to the arrests of multiple people tied to the violent Mexican Sinaloa cartel.​
“It marks the most significant victory in our nation’s fight against fentanyl and drug trafficking to date,” Bondi said during a news conference, adding that the sweeping effort “targeted one of the largest and most dangerous drug trafficking and foreign terrorist organizations in our country.”​
The alleged drug trafficking operation spanned across New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Nevada and Oregon, and the multiagency investigation began with undercover operations and surveillance six months ago, authorities said. In addition to the fentanyl haul, officers said they recovered 35 kilos of methamphetamine, 7.5 kilos of cocaine, 4.5 kilos of heroin, and 49 rifles and pistols.​

Customs officers in Arizona seize largest amount of fentanyl pills in agency’s history


This is from CNN

Who shall we believe the four references from main stream media and the government or an anonymous poster?

Believe what you want - but it is being reported from BOTH sides.

Get past the vitriolic and into unbiased view points.

From the article in the OP:

“The DEA seized 11.5 kilos of fentanyl, including an astounding approximately 3 million fentanyl pills. The largest seizure in our nation’s history.”

From a CBP press release on August 1, 2024:

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers at the Port of Lukeville recently seized approximately 4 million blue fentanyl pills -- weighing more than 1,000 pounds -- in the largest singular fentanyl seizure in CBP history.

Who shall we believe the four references from main stream media and the government or an anonymous poster?
I'm not an anonymous poster BTW, I use my real name.

And here is the part you chose to leave out:

Authorities have carried out one of the largest fentanyl busts in U.S. history after they seized 11.5 kilos which included millions of pills, a move that was announced by Attorney General Pam Bondi Tuesday.​
Along with the fentanyl, another 35 kilos of methamphetamine, 7.5 kilos of cocaine, and 4.5 kilos of heroin was also seized, as well as $5 million in cash and a stash of rifles and pistols.

I understand you do not care for the President - but everything that happens in his administration is not wrong 100% of the time

It doesn't matter if that part was left out or not, it wasn't the largest fentanyl seizure in the country's history as the article claimed.

On Monday, April 28, 2025, DEA agents in Albuquerque, New Mexico seized more fentanyl pills in one bust than most agents will see in their lifetime. A single drug bust netted a record-breaking 2.7 million fentanyl pills, the largest seizure of deadly fentanyl pills in DEA history.
