The #Trump admin’s deadly military strikes on alleged #DrugTrafficking boats have not reduced the amount of cocaine entering the #US, but they’re prompting #criminal organizations to develop new strategies & tactics & undermining traditional investigative methods, acc/to a previously unreported assessment by the #DEA, a closed-door congressional briefing & interviews with current & former US & foreign officials.

In a recent assessment…, #DEA analysts found the strikes had failed to affect the supply or price of cocaine in the #US & had led traffickers to diversify beyond go-fast boats & to avoid international waters, opting instead for larger boats & hemming close to coastlines, where US forces are less likely to open fire. In a closed-door briefing last month, #Pentagon ofcls told lawmakers the strikes in international waters off South & Central America had not reduced its purity.
