Summary

President Trump is escalating the war on drugs. In addition to the recent strike on an alleged drug-smuggling boat from Venezuela, the administration continues to take aggressive action to curb the flow of illicit drugs and crack down on the gangs trafficking them into the country. Special Agent Frank Tarentino, who is part of the DEA New York Division, joined FOX News Rundown host Dave Anthony to discuss how the DEA is working with the military and other government agencies to help cut off the flow of drugs into the country. Tarentino also discusses the gains they’ve made in fighting the fentanyl epidemic and outlines the challenges in the war on drugs. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with DEA Special Agent Frank Tarentino, as he explains how the drug trade operates and how he and others are working to stop it.
