Trump admin debuts 'Fentanyl Free America' plan as DEA touts impact of Caribbean boat strikes

Trump unveils ‘Fentanyl Free America’ anti-trafficking plan

EXCLUSIVE: DEA Administrator Terry Cole tells Fox News correspondent David Spunt that Caribbean boat strikes are helping stop the flow of illegal drugs. 

The Trump administration unveiled its "Fentanyl Free America" anti-trafficking plan on Wednesday as Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Administrator Terry Cole told Fox News that strikes on suspected drug vessels in the Caribbean are helping stop the flow of illegal drugs into the U.S. 

"There's no doubt that these traffickers, these foreign terrorists, are designated to target our kids," Cole said. "They are using social media platforms. They’re using Instagram." 

"We have seen a change in first stop loads, meaning when cocaine arrives to the Dominican Republic, it’s now more expensive. When cocaine arrives to Puerto Rico, it is more expensive," Cole said about the U.S. military's strikes on alleged drug boats in the Caribbean Sea.

Cole said young children in schools across the U.S. will learn about fentanyl and parents will be provided with more resources to talk to kids.

"The Hells Angels are controlling a good portion of the drug trafficking in Canada that is coming across our northern border into the United States," Cole also said.
