EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers working at the Ysleta Port of Entry seized over 20 pounds of cocaine this week, according to CBP.

CBP says at around 9 a.m. on Wednesday, May 28, the seizure began when a 22-year-old man, a U.S. citizen, arrived in a truck from Mexico.

A CBP officer working at the primary inspection booth selected the truck for a secondary exam after a scan revealed anomalies in the appearance of the vehicle, according to CBP.
 
A CBP drug-sniffing dog also alerted to the presence of narcotics during a sweep of traffic as vehicles were approaching a primary inspection area, according to CBP.

An X-ray scan of the truck confirmed the presence of anomalies in the firewall and dashboard area, CBP said.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

I haven't been reading as much about Fentanyl lately.  I wonder if the cartels have found a new way to smuggle it into the country? :pondering:
