A Breaking Bad scientist’s shocking new research revealed the smoking gun on fentanyl deaths
The fentanyl crisis has devastated American families for years.
But new data just vindicated one of Donald Trump’s most controversial campaign promises.
And a Breaking Bad scientist dropped one bombshell that proved Donald Trump was right all along.
Shocking new data reveals the truth about fentanyl and the border
Dr. Donna J. Nelson knows more about dangerous drugs than most people on the planet.
She served as the science advisor for the hit television show Breaking Bad and helped make the show’s chemistry accurate.
But now she’s turned her attention to a real-world crisis that makes Walter White’s meth operation look like child’s play.
Dr. Nelson emphasized the severity of the ongoing crisis, noting that hundreds of Americans continue dying daily from fentanyl.
She expressed concern that "some students tell me that they are still not being warned by their schools."
The researcher stressed the need for collective action to address this devastating epidemic.
The data shows a devastating correlation between fentanyl seized at the border and fentanyl deaths across America.
For the period from January 2019 through December 2023, the research revealed a troubling pattern in the data.
The numbers don’t lie about Biden’s border disaster
The correlation coefficient between border seizures and deaths was 0.70, which statisticians consider a strong correlation.
This means that as more fentanyl gets caught at the border, even more deadly drugs are slipping through undetected.
According to a U.S. House Committee Report, fentanyl precursors are shipped from China to Mexico.
Mexican cartels then assemble these chemicals to create the deadly synthetic opioid.
The finished product gets smuggled across America’s southern border and mixed into other street drugs.
Most victims don’t even know they’re taking fentanyl when they overdose and die.
According to Dr. Nelson’s analysis of CDC data, fentanyl death rates "numbered over 200 people per day in 2022 and 2023."
That’s more than died in the 9/11 attacks happening every two weeks.
The analysis reveals a troubling pattern: when border agents seize more fentanyl, it indicates that even larger quantities are slipping through undetected.
Dr. Nelson’s team found that increased seizures correlate with higher amounts of fentanyl reaching American streets and more overdose deaths.
This devastating reality shows the scope of the border crisis.
Trump’s border strategy gets scientific vindication
Throughout the 2024 campaign, Donald Trump promised to end the fentanyl crisis by securing the border.
Dr. Nelson’s research provides scientific backing for Trump’s approach.
The study found that the correlation "supports the idea that President Trump’s platform" focusing on border security was a logical strategy for reducing fentanyl deaths in America.
The data also supports Trump’s strategy of disrupting fentanyl supply chains that start in China.
By targeting both the source of fentanyl precursors and border security, Trump’s approach attacks the problem from multiple angles.
The scientist noted that efforts to disrupt the flow of materials from China helped reduce both the amount of fentanyl in America and related deaths.
The crisis demands immediate action
The fentanyl epidemic represents one of the greatest public health disasters in American history.
Jim Rauh founded Families Against Fentanyl after his oldest son died from fentanyl poisoning.
His organization represents thousands of families who’ve lost loved ones to this synthetic killer.
Unlike traditional opioids like heroin, fentanyl is completely synthetic and can be manufactured anywhere with the right chemicals.
This makes it cheaper to produce and more profitable for cartels than traditional drugs.
The synthetic nature also makes it extremely dangerous for users.
The annual CDC data from 1999 to 2023 shows that "the death rate recently plateaued" at historically high levels.
This means hundreds of Americans continue dying every day while politicians debate solutions.
Dr. Nelson warns that many schools aren’t even warning students about the dangers of fentanyl-laced drugs.
The fentanyl crisis affects people across all demographics and age groups.
President Trump has already taken action to address the crisis since returning to office.
His administration designated several Mexican cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations.
This gives law enforcement enhanced tools to target the criminal networks responsible for smuggling fentanyl into American communities.
The scientific evidence is now clear that securing the border is essential to stopping the flow of fentanyl that’s killing Americans.
Dr. Nelson’s research provides quantitative proof of what Trump understood intuitively – that border security and the fentanyl crisis are directly connected.
Every day that America’s borders remain porous, more families will lose loved ones to this preventable tragedy.
The data doesn’t lie, and neither did Donald Trump when he promised to end this crisis by securing our borders.
