DUH: Washington Post Confused by ‘Mysterious’ Drop in Fentanyl Seizures at the Southern Border

by June 3, 2025
June 3, 2025

Seizures of fentanyl are way down at the U.S. southern border. How could that be? The geniuses at the Washington Post are absolutely mystified.

Could it be because we finally have a president who takes border security seriously? Apparently, that thought hasn’t occurred to the serious thinkers at the WaPo.

This is a real headline:

I thought this HAD to be a fake

From the WaPo article:

U.S. seizures at the Mexican border are down almost 30 percent for the first half of this fiscal year, compared with the same period in 2024. They have shrunk by even more since the first half of 2023 — from 13,804 pounds to 6,749 pounds. (Those numbers are for the first six months of each fiscal year, which starts in October).

“One cannot deny there is a big drop,” said Vanda Felbab-Brown, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution who studies the fentanyl crisis. “How long it’s going to last is the critical thing.”

The decline is occurring even as the Trump administration has deployed thousands of troops to the border and expanded drone flights. With more boots on the ground, you’d think seizures would go up — not down.

Some security officials think cartels could be seeking ways to get around border security forces — by mailing the fentanyl, or digging tunnels. After all, there’s still plenty of fentanyl available on U.S. streets. This month, DEA agents confiscated more than 880 pounds of the opioid in a “historic” operation, most of it in Albuquerque. Yet, even including such operations in the U.S. interior, fentanyl seizures have been declining.

They really don’t get it.

Who would’ve thought that strong border security would solve this problem.

Who would’ve thought. Wow.

Just spitballing here, but … maybe it’s because cartels aren’t crossing the border under this administration?

Is there any wonder why the Washington Post has lost millions over the last few years? How do people take this paper seriously?
