This commentary questions the decades-long War on Drugs, argues that U.S. actions against drug traffickers often miss the real sources of lethal substances like fentanyl, and highlights concerns about unchecked executive authority under post-9/11 war powers. With a mix of frustration, realism, and constitutional purism, it calls for consistency, transparency, and a return to proper rule-of-law processes in tackling drug cartels and national threats.
