Latest / The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show / The Truth with Lisa Boothe: 45,000 Lives Saved? Sara Carter Exposes Trump's War on Deadly Drug Cartels
Transcript
- 0:06Speaker 1: Welcome to Truth with Lisa Booth. We'll get to the
- 0:08Speaker 1: heart of the issues that matter to you. Today we're
- 0:11Speaker 1: talking about the fentanyl crisis. We haven't heard as much
- 0:14Speaker 1: about it, but it has devastated so many American families,
- 0:17Speaker 1: claimed hundreds of thousands of lives.
- 0:20Speaker 2: But part of the.
- 0:20Speaker 1: Reason why we probably don't hear about it as much
- 0:24Speaker 1: is because, thank God, those overdose deaths are declining. And
- 0:27Speaker 1: a large part of what, because of what President Trump
- 0:30Speaker 1: has done while in office, these immigration policies, securing the border,
- 0:36Speaker 1: also remember when he was really getting attacked for going
- 0:39Speaker 1: after these cartels like they were terrorists, labeling them as
- 0:43Speaker 1: terrorists and allowing the full force of the federal government
- 0:46Speaker 1: and the military to go after them. So we're going
- 0:48Speaker 1: to talk about all of this with the White House
- 0:51Speaker 1: drug czar, Sarah Carter, who She's going to talk to
- 0:54Speaker 1: us about what she's been doing in this role, what
- 0:56Speaker 1: President Trump has been doing to crack down on these
- 0:59Speaker 1: drug cartels, also China's role in the fentanyl trade, on
- 1:03Speaker 1: what's at stake in the upcoming midterm elections if Democrats
- 1:07Speaker 1: end up taking power.
- 1:08Speaker 2: Stay tuned for Sarah Carter.
- 1:10Speaker 1: Well, Sarah Carter, it's great to have you on, my friend.
- 1:16Speaker 1: It's been a while since we've been able to catch up,
- 1:18Speaker 1: so I really appreciate you making the time.
- 1:20Speaker 3: Oh, anytime, Lisa. It's great to be on your podcast.
- 1:23Speaker 3: You get the message out there.
- 1:25Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 1:25Speaker 1: And you've been in this role. How long has it
- 1:27Speaker 1: been that you've been on this role of drug czar?
- 1:29Speaker 1: It's been a few months now. Well, since January 6th,
- 1:33Speaker 1: when I was confirmed.
- 1:35Speaker 3: Funny date. And then prior to that, I was a
- 1:39Speaker 3: special advisor to the president for eight months prior at
- 1:43Speaker 3: the Office of National Drug Control Policy. So I came in.
- 1:48Speaker 3: as a SAP, that's what they call it. And I
- 1:50Speaker 3: was working behind the scenes with the office, putting together
- 1:54Speaker 3: our national drug control strategy. Once we got that done, thankfully,
- 1:59Speaker 3: and after that December, I was able this year in
- 2:04Speaker 3: January to get confirmed as the nation's drug czar and
- 2:08Speaker 3: we've hit the road and we've been on the road
- 2:10Speaker 3: ever since.
- 2:11Speaker 1: And you've also, I mean, this administration has seen a
- 2:15Speaker 1: really great decline in opioid deaths and overdoses. Walk us
- 2:21Speaker 1: through that decline. Give us the updated numbers and what
- 2:25Speaker 1: that looks like.
- 2:27Speaker 3: So at the highest levels under the Biden administration, in particular,
- 2:32Speaker 3: at the highest levels, we saw over 112,000 overdose deaths
- 2:37Speaker 3: and poisonings in the United States in one year. That
- 2:40Speaker 3: was in 2023. That was at its highest point. And
- 2:44Speaker 3: we continuously saw over 100,000, over 100,000 deaths, you know,
- 2:48Speaker 3: I mean, to the point where people started to compare
- 2:51Speaker 3: it to, and we did, all the wars fought since
- 2:54Speaker 3: World War II, all the deaths in World War II,
- 2:57Speaker 3: which were over 400,000. And then when you look at
- 2:59Speaker 3: the full 10 years where we were looking at massive
- 3:05Speaker 3: overdose deaths, we had over 1.5 million overdose deaths and
- 3:10Speaker 3: poisonings in total in the United States. Right now, under
- 3:14Speaker 3: President Trump, it is at the lowest level since 2017,
- 3:18Speaker 3: continuing to go down. It is over 40% down in
- 3:23Speaker 3: overdose deaths since the highest point And right now that's around,
- 3:27Speaker 3: we last tallied it at 66,000, which means we're continuing
- 3:32Speaker 3: to monitor the trajectory down, which is great. It's still
- 3:36Speaker 3: far too many. One death is far too many. But that's,
- 3:41Speaker 3: you know, over 44,000 people that are alive today because
- 3:45Speaker 3: of the policies put in place by President Trump. Common
- 3:49Speaker 3: sense policies that are saving American lives, shutting down the border,
- 3:54Speaker 3: hitting the cartels, At every single choke point, whether that's land, sea,
- 3:59Speaker 3: or air, we are going after them. Under the Office
- 4:02Speaker 3: of National Drug Control Policy, we have what we call
- 4:04Speaker 3: our HIDA teams. Those are our high-intensity drug trafficking teams.
- 4:09Speaker 3: We have 33 of those across the nation, 33 regional
- 4:12Speaker 3: HIDAs made up of what we call, it's a combined
- 4:15Speaker 3: task force, DEA, state and local, tribal, FBI, everybody working together.
- 4:23Speaker 3: And we do that with our HSTFs. That's our Homeland
- 4:26Speaker 3: Security Task Force teams. And I got to tell you,
- 4:29Speaker 3: it has been astonishing what we have been able to
- 4:32Speaker 3: do and the kind of hammer that this administration under
- 4:36Speaker 3: President Trump has been to the cartels and to the
- 4:39Speaker 3: drug traffickers. We are just locking them at every single point.
- 4:44Speaker 3: We're taking them down. We've done that with El Menchal.
- 4:48Speaker 3: We did that in Venezuela. We have targeted their ships
- 4:51Speaker 3: out at sea. We are doing it in our U.S.
- 4:54Speaker 3: Postal Service. I've gone out on a number of operations,
- 4:59Speaker 3: Puerto Rico as well as Alaska multiple times, hitting the
- 5:03Speaker 3: cartels so they can't move stuff through the postal system.
- 5:06Speaker 3: And we're working on that. So we are saving lives
- 5:09Speaker 3: because we have common sense. Common sense policies and rule
- 5:13Speaker 3: of law. And I got to tell you, Lisa, we're
- 5:16Speaker 3: seeing the difference.
- 5:17Speaker 1: You know, President Trump, when he initially, I mean, it's
- 5:22Speaker 1: not really gotten as much attention because I think the
- 5:24Speaker 1: war in Iran and there's, you know, so many other
- 5:25Speaker 1: things going on in the world, but Initially, because he
- 5:29Speaker 1: started treating the cartels legally in the way that we
- 5:33Speaker 1: treat terrorists, which then sort of unlocked these new tools
- 5:37Speaker 1: in government action against the cartels. And he was initially
- 5:40Speaker 1: criticized for a lot of that. But how effective do
- 5:44Speaker 1: you think that has been in sort of allowing for
- 5:49Speaker 1: this decline in fentanyl and opioid deaths?
- 5:54Speaker 2: It's huge.
- 5:55Speaker 3: It was so important, Lisa, when in October of 2017,
- 6:00Speaker 3: I'm going back to that date, I testified along with
- 6:03Speaker 3: Derek Maltz, the former acting director of the DEA, along
- 6:07Speaker 3: with parents who had lost their children before the Ohio
- 6:10Speaker 3: State Legislature, and Ohio was hit so hard, they saw
- 6:13Speaker 3: death tolls soar that were unimaginable, especially among their youth.
- 6:19Speaker 3: And we testified during that time to make the cartels
- 6:23Speaker 3: and designate them terrorist organizations. We started in Ohio. We
- 6:27Speaker 3: were hoping during Trump 1 that that would be enacted
- 6:32Speaker 3: during Trump 1 in Washington, D.C. It wasn't at that time.
- 6:37Speaker 3: And now that President Trump, when he came in, that
- 6:39Speaker 3: was one of the very first things that he did.
- 6:42Speaker 3: It opened up the toolbox for us. We're able to
- 6:44Speaker 3: hit them, their finances in ways we have never been
- 6:47Speaker 3: able to hit them before. We have literally designated them
- 6:51Speaker 3: foreign terrorist organizations and weapon of mass destruction as far
- 6:55Speaker 3: as fentanyl is concerned. which has put the fear of
- 6:58Speaker 3: God in these cartels. That's why we're noticing a drop
- 7:03Speaker 3: in the volatility of the fentanyl that is coming across
- 7:07Speaker 3: the border, if any is. It's very, very low. And
- 7:11Speaker 3: the fact that they're switching gears, they're trying to find
- 7:15Speaker 3: other ways of maybe reallocating their business to different drugs,
- 7:21Speaker 3: either cocaine or methamphetamine, but we're hitting them there too.
- 7:26Speaker 3: So no matter what they're trying to do, we're catching
- 7:29Speaker 3: them at the pass, right? And it has allowed us
- 7:32Speaker 3: the tools of the Department of War to go after
- 7:35Speaker 3: them at sea. And there was no other way to
- 7:38Speaker 3: do it, Lisa. These cartels, are the most vicious, nefarious
- 7:42Speaker 3: organizations on the planet. They kill with impunity. They operate
- 7:47Speaker 3: in their nation states like in Mexico and other parts
- 7:50Speaker 3: of our hemisphere. And even, by the way, in the
- 7:53Speaker 3: United States as chieftains, overlords, you know, shadow governments. You
- 8:01Speaker 3: could see what's happened in Mexico, you know, and we're
- 8:04Speaker 3: seeing that trajectory change in Mexico right now because of
- 8:08Speaker 3: President Trump and his relationship with President Scheinbaum and the
- 8:13Speaker 3: fact that we are demanding change. We have demanded change
- 8:17Speaker 3: across the board. We've seen that now in Colombia with
- 8:20Speaker 3: the election of President de la Espraya. And when I
- 8:24Speaker 3: was at the inauguration, we had a chance to speak
- 8:27Speaker 3: with them and talk with them. And he has been
- 8:29Speaker 3: very publicly open, the new president of Colombia, that he's
- 8:33Speaker 3: going to be hitting the cartels really hard as far
- 8:35Speaker 3: as eradication of coca and ensuring that we remove the
- 8:38Speaker 3: cocaine and ensuring that we go after and capture the
- 8:42Speaker 3: some of the worst of the worst, whether that's, you know,
- 8:45Speaker 3: people with the LN or the FARC, anybody who's moving
- 8:48Speaker 3: or operating with the cartels or working with the cartels,
- 8:52Speaker 3: we are coming after them. We saw that in Mexico
- 8:55Speaker 3: when we have extradition and when we have come out
- 8:59Speaker 3: publicly and have pointed our finger at Mexican politicians and said, hey,
- 9:04Speaker 3: We want them. We know they're working with the cartels.
- 9:07Speaker 3: So we're no longer allowing the cartels to operate it
- 9:11Speaker 3: freely in our Western Hemisphere. We're taking the Western Hemisphere
- 9:15Speaker 3: back and we're ensuring that we're not only working together
- 9:18Speaker 3: in the United States with our state and local partners,
- 9:22Speaker 3: but that we're also working in the Western Hemisphere with
- 9:25Speaker 3: our partners. on the diplomatic level, with our partners overseas,
- 9:30Speaker 3: with the nation states that are our allies, with Argentina,
- 9:34Speaker 3: with Ecuador, with Peru, Colombia, Guatemala, Mexico, and sharing information We've.
- 9:45Speaker 1: Also seen, you know, deportations and cutting down, you know,
- 9:50Speaker 1: locking down the southern border, which happened pretty immediately after
- 9:53Speaker 1: he took office. What role has those immigration policies played
- 10:01Speaker 1: in cutting down these opioid deaths as well?
- 10:05Speaker 3: Oh, it's also been an extraordinary factor. I mean, it's
- 10:08Speaker 3: a combination of all these factors. And I'm glad you
- 10:10Speaker 3: brought the border up because the border is so important.
- 10:13Speaker 3: You know, I spent a lot of my career on
- 10:15Speaker 3: the U.S.-Mexico border, on that southern border covering the immigration.
- 10:19Speaker 3: But remember, immigration was also in conjunction. And that migration,
- 10:24Speaker 3: I want to call it smuggling, not immigration, but that
- 10:26Speaker 3: migration was and the smuggling of human beings and human
- 10:30Speaker 3: trafficking was also in combination with the narcotics. I mean,
- 10:34Speaker 3: I would remember the cartels, especially if it was Sinaloa or,
- 10:38Speaker 3: you know, the Sonoran Cowboys or whoever was moving people
- 10:41Speaker 3: across the border. They would use their human smuggling operation
- 10:45Speaker 3: to deflect. So they would send 700 people across the border,
- 10:49Speaker 3: let's just say in McAllen, right? They'd move a whole
- 10:52Speaker 3: bunch of people across the border and then up the
- 10:55Speaker 3: Rio and They would be moving narcotics. So they would
- 10:58Speaker 3: have all of our border patrol and all of our
- 11:01Speaker 3: resources tied up with, you know, a thousand people or
- 11:05Speaker 3: 700 people coming across that border. And we would see
- 11:08Speaker 3: it on the news nightly. But what people didn't realize
- 11:11Speaker 3: is while our hands were tied, while we were going
- 11:15Speaker 3: after all these folks and trying to get them in
- 11:17Speaker 3: process and figure out what was going on, the cartels
- 11:21Speaker 3: were moving narcotics. cocaine, fentanyl, marijuana, you name it across
- 11:26Speaker 3: the border. And by the way, you know, people, SIAs,
- 11:30Speaker 3: special interest aliens, people that they didn't want in those
- 11:34Speaker 3: large groups, people that had paid a significant amount of money,
- 11:37Speaker 3: terrorists and others to move in through secretly through other
- 11:42Speaker 3: areas of the border. That is what the difference is
- 11:45Speaker 3: between common sense, shutting down the border and following the
- 11:50Speaker 3: rule of law You're saving American lives. We're saving our children.
- 11:55Speaker 3: We're saving future generations from the hell that these people
- 11:59Speaker 3: were doing. These cartels were importing the contraband that they
- 12:03Speaker 3: were bringing into our nation, both across the legal entry
- 12:07Speaker 3: points and across the open border, wide gaps that we
- 12:12Speaker 3: saw on the nearly 2,000 mile border with Mexico. So
- 12:15Speaker 3: for us, it has been very significant. We've seen a
- 12:18Speaker 3: significant drop, over 50% drop And in some cases, 60%
- 12:23Speaker 3: to 80% drop in fentanyl coming across the border. So
- 12:27Speaker 3: that's been huge. We've also seen a drop, of course,
- 12:31Speaker 3: in human trafficking and human slavery and smuggling of children,
- 12:36Speaker 3: which has saved so many countless lives. You know, Lisa,
- 12:40Speaker 3: I always used to say it, and I just said
- 12:42Speaker 3: it the other night to some folks that I was
- 12:44Speaker 3: talking to in law enforcement. If you cared about the people,
- 12:49Speaker 3: the immigrants, the migrants, even the ones that were coming
- 12:53Speaker 3: here illegally, the ones that were being trafficked on that border,
- 12:55Speaker 3: then you would want rule of law. You would want
- 12:58Speaker 3: the border to be shut down. You would not want
- 13:01Speaker 3: illegal migration into this country, not only to save the
- 13:06Speaker 3: lives of Americans first and foremost, but what about all
- 13:09Speaker 3: the innocent children and women that were being used by
- 13:12Speaker 3: these cartels to move their narcotics in here, use them
- 13:18Speaker 3: as slaves, God only knows what these people have done
- 13:21Speaker 3: to some of these children, the kind of rape and
- 13:24Speaker 3: horror that they faced coming into this country. So if
- 13:27Speaker 3: you really cared, you would shut it down. But the
- 13:29Speaker 3: Biden administration didn't do that. President Trump shut it down.
- 13:33Speaker 3: The Biden administration's policy was to leave the border wide open.
- 13:38Speaker 3: That was the policy of the Dems. That is still
- 13:41Speaker 3: the policy of the Radical Democratic Party. It's to leave
- 13:44Speaker 3: it wide open, to use migration as a weapon. against
- 13:48Speaker 3: our own people and against the people that are being
- 13:52Speaker 3: abused by these cartels. So the cartels know now that
- 13:57Speaker 3: we mean business. They know that we're not joking around.
- 14:00Speaker 3: We're not just lip service. We mean business. If we
- 14:03Speaker 3: say we are going to take you out, believe me, Lisa,
- 14:07Speaker 3: we are going to take them out because we are
- 14:10Speaker 3: working together now, whether that's from the White House with
- 14:12Speaker 3: Stephen Miller all the way to the DEA, I work
- 14:15Speaker 3: very closely with Terry Cole to the Attorney General Todd Blanche.
- 14:20Speaker 3: We've been traveling around the country. We've been traveling around
- 14:22Speaker 3: the world. I was recently in Argentina at the International
- 14:26Speaker 3: Drug Enforcement Conference. And I make it very clear, no
- 14:30Speaker 3: matter where we're at, we are coming after you. There
- 14:34Speaker 3: will be no place for you to turn.
- 14:35Speaker 1: You know, and we've also seen, obviously, you know, China
- 14:39Speaker 1: has been a major source of the precursor chemicals used
- 14:42Speaker 1: to manufacture fentanyl.
- 14:45Speaker 2: How much is China still enabling the crisis?
- 14:48Speaker 1: Obviously, a lessened crisis, as you pointed out, but, you know,
- 14:52Speaker 1: any death is far too many.
- 14:54Speaker 2: But how much is China still enabling this?
- 14:58Speaker 3: Look, China needs to do more. I will say it
- 15:01Speaker 3: over and over and over again. I've told it, I've
- 15:03Speaker 3: said it to the Chinese officials when they've come here
- 15:06Speaker 3: and we've had meetings. you need to do more. I
- 15:09Speaker 3: think we saw a turn with China just before President
- 15:13Speaker 3: Xi arrived to the United States to meet with President Trump.
- 15:17Speaker 3: And this is due again to President Trump being the
- 15:20Speaker 3: commander in chief that does what he says and means
- 15:23Speaker 3: what he says. And having the respect of leaders all
- 15:28Speaker 3: over the world, we had been pushing for China to
- 15:32Speaker 3: basically schedule a morphines, the full class of morphines. And
- 15:37Speaker 3: I'm sure you hear a lot about cycloraphine on the
- 15:39Speaker 3: news now because it is so deadly and so dangerous.
- 15:43Speaker 3: It's seven times to 10 times more potent than fentanyl.
- 15:47Speaker 3: It is not necessary for any medical or medicinal reasons.
- 15:53Speaker 3: It should not be in our country. And we've had
- 15:55Speaker 3: over 55 deaths that we have been able to document.
- 15:59Speaker 3: So that means there's a lot of deaths that are
- 16:01Speaker 3: not documented because you have to test for it specifically
- 16:05Speaker 3: in the United States. So China, right before President Xi came,
- 16:11Speaker 3: they moved on that. We put pressure on them. And
- 16:15Speaker 3: thank God for my team at ONDCP and others, who
- 16:18Speaker 3: were working on this, China backed in, backed up, and said,
- 16:22Speaker 3: guess what? We're going to issue a scheduling on all
- 16:26Speaker 3: orphans coming out of China, meaning it's much more difficult.
- 16:29Speaker 3: They're going to have to, if they move any orphans
- 16:32Speaker 3: out of China, they literally have to have a licensing
- 16:35Speaker 3: agreement that we can see of that coming out of China.
- 16:40Speaker 3: We also were able to get two very potent precursors
- 16:45Speaker 3: used for fentanyl to get export controls on those as well.
- 16:50Speaker 3: And that changed right before the meeting with President Trump.
- 16:54Speaker 3: And China also agreed to issue an advisory in their
- 16:59Speaker 3: nation regarding metatomidine, which people call it rhino trach, on
- 17:04Speaker 3: the streets. So those three Maine, I believe Maine negotiating
- 17:10Speaker 3: blocks have now been we've now been fully charged because
- 17:14Speaker 3: of President Trump, because of the people that are working
- 17:16Speaker 3: at ONDCP and the DEA. And, you know, along with
- 17:20Speaker 3: everybody else who's played a role in this. So I
- 17:24Speaker 3: think that's vitally important. And but China still has to
- 17:27Speaker 3: do more. We have lost so many people to fentanyl.
- 17:32Speaker 3: And it's happened because the majority of those precursors are
- 17:35Speaker 3: coming from China. They're coming from the Far East. And,
- 17:40Speaker 3: you know, the Chinese government is very well aware that
- 17:43Speaker 3: that enters our supply chain. And what we want and
- 17:46Speaker 3: what our national drug control strategy that my office put
- 17:49Speaker 3: together for the president wants is a clean supply chain.
- 17:53Speaker 3: That means from origination to destination. We don't want to
- 17:58Speaker 3: inspect any ships or cargo and find any of these
- 18:03Speaker 3: precursor chemicals in them. And we're also going to hold
- 18:06Speaker 3: accountable the private industry that is responsible for a lot
- 18:11Speaker 3: of these shipments coming to the United States. We want
- 18:14Speaker 3: to make sure they are checking their cargo. They're making
- 18:17Speaker 3: sure that their ships are clean and that they have
- 18:20Speaker 3: the security necessary to bring their stuff here.
- 18:23Speaker 1: You know, and then before we go, obviously, the midterms
- 18:26Speaker 1: are next week. There could be leadership changes in Congress.
- 18:32Speaker 1: What impact could that have on your agenda, the president's agenda,
- 18:38Speaker 1: on trying to crack down on drugs and on some
- 18:41Speaker 1: of these border and immigration issues as well?
- 18:44Speaker 3: I believe that this should be a bipartisan issue. This
- 18:47Speaker 3: should not be partisan. We want to save our children.
- 18:50Speaker 3: We've had Too many kids dying in our country, too
- 18:53Speaker 3: many family members, too many adults for that matter, dying,
- 18:57Speaker 3: dying because of poison that is on our streets, literal poison.
- 19:02Speaker 3: So that means people that went to a party maybe
- 19:05Speaker 3: in the 1980s and experimented with drugs, even like cocaine,
- 19:09Speaker 3: weren't worried that they were going to immediately die. Well,
- 19:12Speaker 3: that's what's been happening in the United States when all
- 19:15Speaker 3: of the drugs that we've seen on the streets, the
- 19:17Speaker 3: majority of which have been killing our citizens, have been
- 19:20Speaker 3: adulterated with fentanyl, metatomidine, xylosine, you name it, cyclorafine. I've
- 19:27Speaker 3: never learned so many different chemical compounds, but they're out
- 19:31Speaker 3: there on the streets and they are killing our citizens.
- 19:34Speaker 3: So Democrats and Republicans better get on the same page
- 19:39Speaker 3: about this. And that means following rule of law, common
- 19:43Speaker 3: sense rules, keeping the borders shut, it saves everyone. It
- 19:48Speaker 3: not only helps put America first, the people that we're being,
- 19:53Speaker 3: my God, we're being brought here as human slaves. We
- 19:58Speaker 3: need to shut down the ability for the cartels to
- 20:02Speaker 3: operate in our country freely. We need to shut it
- 20:04Speaker 3: down so that we can do the work that we
- 20:07Speaker 3: need to do to save lives and give our kids
- 20:10Speaker 3: a future worth fighting for, Lisa. So I pray the
- 20:14Speaker 3: radical Dems are out there and they have a completely
- 20:17Speaker 3: different idea of what they wanna do. But the radical
- 20:22Speaker 3: Democrats that are pushing to gain power and traction in
- 20:27Speaker 3: the United States do not want what's best for Americans.
- 20:31Speaker 3: They want to destroy this country. So when people go
- 20:34Speaker 3: to the voting booth and they're voting, They're voting for
- 20:39Speaker 3: the future of this nation, for sure, more now than
- 20:42Speaker 3: at any other point in history. So if you care
- 20:45Speaker 3: about your kids, you care about your families, you care
- 20:49Speaker 3: about the future of this country, make this a bipartisan issue.
- 20:54Speaker 3: Ensure that you're talking to whoever's out there and saying, look, listen,
- 20:58Speaker 3: I don't want drugs on my streets. I don't want
- 21:01Speaker 3: fentanyl killing my kids. I want to do everything it
- 21:04Speaker 3: takes to save our children and our nation. And that's
- 21:07Speaker 3: the warning that I have for Americans listening to your show.
- 21:11Speaker 3: For all of you out there, remember, we have an
- 21:13Speaker 3: enemy out there that is dangerous and volatile. And this
- 21:18Speaker 3: is the biggest national security threat in our nation. And
- 21:22Speaker 3: it is America's longest war. Let's end it.
- 21:25Speaker 1: Well, Sarah Carter, it's great to have you on, my friend.
- 21:28Speaker 1: I know that you're very passionate about this and this
- 21:30Speaker 1: job means a lot to you. So we are lucky
- 21:32Speaker 1: to have you both on the show and then also
- 21:35Speaker 1: in the role.
- 21:36Speaker 3: Thank you so much, Lisa. We're great because we have
- 21:38Speaker 3: an amazing president that lets us do our job and
- 21:41Speaker 3: we're saving lives. And I think if anything, this has
- 21:44Speaker 3: been one of the greatest successes of President Trump's time
- 21:48Speaker 3: in office thus far. We are saving American lives and
- 21:51Speaker 3: 45,000 more Americans are at the dinner table and hanging
- 21:54Speaker 3: out with their kids. and hanging out with their family
- 21:57Speaker 3: members because of that.
- 21:58Speaker 1: Well, Prati, my friend, thanks for the work that you're doing.
- 22:02Speaker 2: Talk soon.
- 22:02Speaker 3: Thank you.
- 22:02Speaker 1: That was Sarah Carter, President Trump's drug czar. We appreciate
- 22:06Speaker 1: her making the time for the show. Appreciate you guys
- 22:08Speaker 1: at home for listening every Tuesday and Thursday, but you
- 22:10Speaker 1: can listen throughout the week.
- 22:12Speaker 2: Also want to thank John Cascio, my producer, for putting
- 22:14Speaker 2: the show together. Until next time.
