    Our politicians are completely clueless. And the DEA is a complete sham.

    A drug dealer's worst nightmare: Prison? No. Lack of supply? No. Getting killed? No. Hiding money? No. Getting arrested? No. So what is it then? People who don't use drugs.

    The DEA was established in 1973 as part of the U.S. government's war on drugs.
    The DEA has an intelligence unit that is also a member of the U.S. Intelligence Community.
    While the unit is part of the DEA chain-of-command, it also reports to the Director of National Intelligence.
    The DEA has been criticized for scheduling drugs that have medical uses, and for focusing on operations that allow it to seize money, rather than those involving drugs that cause more harm.

    She has nice hair, she's a good reporter as well. Getting librarian glasses might really work for her.
