Trump Appoints Sara Carter as Drug Czar Amid Controversy

President Donald Trump has appointed Sara Carter, a conservative journalist and former Fox News contributor, as the new Director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). Trump's announcement highlighted Carter's extensive reporting background, particularly on border issues related to drug and human trafficking. However, her appointment has raised eyebrows due to her lack of formal experience in drug policy, public health, or law enforcement. Supporters, including Senator Marsha Blackburn, expressed optimism about her commitment to combating the drug crisis in America. Critics point out that Carter's selection fits a pattern of appointing individuals with media backgrounds rather than policy expertise. The move comes amid ongoing concerns over the effectiveness of drug control strategies in the U.S.
