According to this site the CIA had its own plane running drugs
http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index2237.htm "One of the first “discoveries” made about the CIA’s involvement with international drug trafficking by US military intelligence operative Robin Townley, this report continues, was this spy agencies frequent use of an aircraft identified as a 2006 Israel Aircraft Industries Gulfstream 200 (tail number N200VR) owned by a company named 200G PSA Holdings LLC in Miami, Florida—and that, in turn, is owned by Samark José López Bello, and that General Flynn, yesterday, ordered immediately captured, and as stated in the US sanction order: “Five U.S. companies owned or controlled by Lopez Bello and/or MFAA Holdings Limited have also been blocked as part of today's action.  These entities are the following limited liability companies registered in Florida:  1425 Brickell Ave 63-F LLC; 1425 Brickell Avenue Unit 46B, LLC; 1425 Brickell Avenue 64E, LLC; Agusta Grand I LLC; and 200G PSA Holdings LLC.  Additionally, a U.S.-registered aircraft with the tail number N200VR has been identified as blocked property owned or controlled by 200G PSA Holdings LLC.”

Of course it did. Search Wikipedia/Youtube for Air America, Gary Webb, Iran-Contra, Kill The Messenger. The CIA has self-funded through illegal drug sales since at least the 1950s.

No wonder why Trump made fighting drugs such a big part of his campaign.

I think he is just a 1950s Eisenhower, white picket fence guy who likes decency and family life. There is no room for cocaine and heroin in that.

Earlier in his life, he was more libertine (so was I). He chased skirts, he watched people have sex at Studio 54, he got into the mafia-ridden casino business.

Actually, probably the easiest and fastest way for Trump to shut down the CIA would be to legalize drugs and crack down on human trafficking and organ harvesting. Then it would have no money left.

right, why drugs are illegal in the first place, not that I support drug addiction, but often the legal expenses ruin the lives of the families and does nothing for the addict.

Right. I'm not a fan of drugs. Just look at the heroin/crack shanty towns in Baltimore. But I think legalization might help.

I think Trump likes a good fight, though, since he admires General Patton.
And it is a really good post. Thank you for all the work.

I'll fight with him!
