U.S. Navy corpsman patrols a poppy field in Helmand province in April 2011 A viral story published by Vice News exposed a new problem faced by those who are unfortunately addicted to heroin: Their drug of choice is being replaced with Chinese fentanyl, and it started in September.
In a piece of impressive length featuring interviews with an equally impressive number of heroin addicts and experts, Vice News broke the news that there is apparently a nationwide heroin shortage. It does not appear to be caused by Joe Biden’s supply chain shortage, however. No, it turns out that good, old fashioned Made-in-Afghanistan heroin was recently replaced with Chinese fentanyl that is imported with greater ease and at lower cost than its previously dominant weaker competitor.
Heroin addicts and their advocates have complained that the China’s relentless capitalistic pursuit of market share over the opiate market, at the expense of heroin, is resulting in more opiate deaths. It is apparently much easier to overdose on fentanyl than it is heroin.
The article profiles an unfortunate man identified as Garrett who drove as many as four hours per day to buy as little as a gram of the illicit drug. Vice explains that Garrett actually moved to a different town to be closer to his heroin connections only to have the drug become impossible to find.
“He hasn’t come across any heroin since September,” reported Vice News. “It’s been entirely replaced with fentanyl, a synthetic opioid that’s up to 50 times more potent.” The situation is apparently worse on the East Coast, where heroin has been impossible to find for some time.
Many Americans have heard jokes about heroin coming from Afghanistan despite the United States occupying the country for nearly 20 years, but the country is indeed one of the world’s top exporters of the drug.
In 2019, under United States occupation, Afghanistan exported nearly 80% of the world’s supply of heroin. More than 120,000 people in Afghanistan were employed in the growth or manufacturing of the illicit drug, and the process contributed up to 11% of Afghanistan’s economy, according to the BBC.

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
