Remember who you are. Remember who we are as a Nation. For a bit forget who we have become. Isolating is the term that can describe the place that these chemicals/drugs/weapons place everyone in. Nobody understands what has been happening for the last 12 years since 2013 so we apply the old 1980’s-1990’s model and habits of how to deal with it all. Of course this is a whole new beast, so the old rules don’t apply or help. The stigma and shame keep everyone silent and isolated.
“I don’t know if this is a blessing or a curse,” I tell my dad. My isolation is not set idle, instead constantly working the problem. I know my son, I know healthcare, I know the military and I know my long lived experience dealing with this crisis. The death of your child is everyone’s worst nightmare, so I am repelled by everyone to save their feelings. That’s OK because I need to focus on this race against Fentanyl.
We are smarter and better than this and I don’t believe that this is by accident or that it can’t be solved. In order to be successful in this ambition first you must change your perception. Surrender to the science based, proven facts about these chemicals/drugs/weapons. Learn the limitations of the human body and brain. You can’t stay in your old school thought process that has not and will not work. The facts and answers are here. I will provide the data and links as we go on this journey together.
To move forward in a productive way we have to let go of the shameful, taboo stigma of addiction/ Substance Use Disorder (SUD). The drugs have advanced exponentially- healthcare and treatment have not. We can bring awareness to the science based facts and best practices model for the recovery of our US Citizens. These highly addictive/deadly chemicals have been clandestinely laced in our drug supply since 2013 and have killed over a million of our younger- generation. There are hundreds of thousands sick and suffering from these attacks with drug induced psychosis, living on the streets, while US President Obama and Vice President Biden ignored the officials warnings and intel about this domestic terrorism. Knowingly allowing our kids to be killed from domestic terrorism is treason, negligence and inhumane treatment. If they were dogs showing these signs of distress on the streets they would have been given medical treatment and rescued. Fentanyl is more powerful than sarin gas.
According to the National Institute of Health (NIH) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Substance Use Disorder has been recognized as a science proven disease since at least 1952, found in the DSM-5. They state that it is not a moral flaw or a character flaw. Please watch the videos and read the reports provided. Our brains are an organ and susceptible to chemicals introduced into the bloodstream. These chemicals have an expected outcome when introduced into the various parts of the brain. There are some pretty smart people out there that have mapped this out and have it down to a science. This is old news. Not easy to find and not advertised.
In 2013 the United States started seeing increasing numbers of people dying from overdoses (Fentanyl poisonings). The Obama/Biden Administration is warned by health officials, and top US Agencies but President Obama and Vice President Biden choose to ignore the many warnings of the poisonings by top Government Agencies. (It’s very important that you read the linked Washington Post new article below titled “The Fentanyl Failure”) Obama and Biden do not pass on the warning to the American people. A ‘National Emergency Alert’ should have been issued to the citizens of the United States. Coincidentally this coincided with the 2013 business meetings to China with Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden. The same Hunter Biden that President Biden just pardoned from all illegal activity that may be uncovered about him in the future after 2024 (news articles on resources page).
Our human brain is not developed in the decision-making area until 25 years old, after the usual age for drug experimentation being high school and college age. The DEA reports in 2023 that 70% of all types of illicit drugs are testing positive for Fentanyl with highly addictive properties. From weed to Percocet, Oxycodone, Adderall…. This means the addictive properties of the drugs have been exposing, addicting, or killing the experimental aged population. This continues unchecked for 12 years until the end of 2024. In 2017 President Trump issued a “National Health Emergency” for ‘opioids’. It’s a noble attempt, but until you use the correct words that represent the ongoing truth, people won’t think it applies to them. If you were to state that “70% of the illicit drugs are being laced with highly addictive and deadly Fentanyl by adversary countries causing record breaking mass death amongst our college and high school kids”, then I would know you are talking to my kids that were in high school and college. Another missed opportunity.
2021 the Administration is briefed that the chemicals are coming from China, being sent to Mexican Cartels, mixed, prepared, and smuggled into the United States. US Government agencies warn of the high spike in Fentanyl overdose deaths to now incoming, 2021 President Biden and Vice President Harris. Biden already knew of this threat from his last 4 years in office in 2013 when this attack began. 2020-2024 the American citizens have STILL not been given an ‘Emergency Alert Notice’ of the illicit drugs being laced with poison fentanyl by other countries. Biden assigns Vice President Kamala Harris to be in charge of America’s borders and immigration. Joe and Kamala open the United States borders and let millions of illegal aliens crossings pour in and untold pounds of Fentanyl/chemical weapons walk in. This 4 years sees overdose deaths, addiction, homelessness skyrocket like never before in our history. A half of a million young people died on your 4 year watch from this terror attack that you stood by and assisted the terrorist with. My son AUSTIN was one of them! The CDC even stands down and does not warn us. Some Agencies are so desperate to sound the alarms and warn the US citizens they go around the Biden Administration and arm some fentanyl families with the knowledge.
In September 2023, 6 months after Austin was killed I went to D.C. for the 2nd Annual DEA Family summit on Fentanyl. I provided a videotaped testimony of Austin and my nightmare experience for the past 6 years of his life. I posted it on resources page unedited. I was still lost and in a fog, traumatized from our experience. Nothing was making sense of how this all could have happened. There are a few million family members who have felt my desperation for some explanation and clarity. We are ignored by the Biden/Harris Administration also. We are ignored by the news media. Instead of breaking the laws and our own moral codes we reach out to each other, and fight for good. We reject all evil and its ways. Evil exists, that’s how we got to this point. Americans are not standing up to this evil.
Austin, Kali and my lived experience matched up perfectly with what I was hearing from the DEA Special Agents and other parents. I met hundreds of Fentanyl families at rallies and marches trying to raise awareness. I listened and learned. They were all a couple of years ahead of me. Trying to raise awareness, mostly prevention of drug use in youth. There was a wide net of focuses that each family zeroed in on. From stopping drug homicide, death dealer accountability, changing legislation to grief support.
The DEA taught me that the sick need medication assisted treatment(MAT), only 2% can get sober without MAT. The chemicals are so strong they take the brain hostage and it’s not their fault. I’m thinking, “What? The DEA is on the side of the drug user?” I’m hearing them say “You have to go home, start grass roots movements, and save your community.” But, that, I am having a hard time believing. It’s too surreal. Fortunately I am geographically located close to a group of relentless kick-ass fentanyl fighter parents that have inspired and included me while I attempt to believe it happened, heal, research, learn and teach.
This crisis is a complex disaster. After 12 years of the administrations betrayal and neglect of its citizens, it’s safe to say that it is ‘We The People’ that have to prevent another generation from destroying their lives and your family. At the same time rescue the sick and wounded out there on the streets with scientific evidence based practices to provide Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) for recovery. This is happening to them from other countries trying to kill our youth. This information also has been withheld from the public. This opioid problem might have started with big pharma, lobbyists, unethical and morally challenged leaders; being taken advantage of by China, Mexico and our US leaders but it needs to end with us. ‘We the People’ determine the outcome of OUR communities and OUR United States. Nobody is coming to save us.
In the future when this decade of blatant disregard for humanity is reflected upon they will wonder why it took us so long to react and intervene. Who have we become, that is complacent with our own flesh and blood, being sick, neglected and abandoned; ignoring the scientist, doctors, law enforcement, firefighters and first responders pleas.
