On Friday night, President Donald Trump announced that he will appoint a Fox News contributor to lead the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). In a post on X, Trump praised Sara Carter as an “award-winning journalist” who has “been on the front lines” of the fight against drugs for decades.
“It is my great honor to announce Sara Carter as our next Director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). Sara is an Award Winning Journalist, who has been on the front lines of this International Fight for decades. From Afghanistan to our Border, Sarah’s relentless pursuit of Justice, especially in tackling the Fentanyl and Opioid Crisis, has exposed terrorists, drug lords, and sex traffickers. As our next Drug Czar, Sara will lead the charge to protect our Nation, and save our children from the scourge of drugs,” he wrote.
Carter confirmed the momentous appointment on X, vowing to do everything she can to combat the deadly epidemic of drugs on American streets. “It is truly an honor to serve President Donald J. Trump and be part of an administration committed to putting America first.
“I pledge to work tirelessly every day to identify the challenges we face and find the solutions that will Make America Safe Again, freeing us from the grip of deadly substances like fentanyl, heroin, opioids, and other dangerous drugs,” she added. “I am ready to serve at the pleasure of the President, bringing with me years of experience in investigating cartels, terrorists, human and drug traffickers. My greatest desire is to ensure this nation remains secure and safe—for my children, and for yours.
“America’s greatest resource is our people and it will be up to each and every one of us to do our part – I promise you I will never stop fighting. Thank you [Trump] for your faith and trust in me. Thank you to my family for their love and supporting me in this next chapter in our lives. God Bless America,” Carter concluded.
