DEA Chief Seeks Celebrity Support in Anti-Drug Campaign

DEA Administrator Derek Maltz is reportedly reaching out to high-profile celebrities, including pop superstar Taylor Swift, to leverage their immense social media influence for a critical anti-drug campaign.

Well that’s a good use of their influence!

Maltz believes that by harnessing the power of celebrity voices, especially during high-visibility events like the Super Bowl, the message about the dangers of drug abuse can effectively reach young audiences who are most at risk.

The initiative comes in the wake of tragic incidents involving drug-related deaths among sports fans, underscoring the urgent need for widespread awareness. Maltz’s strategy focuses on utilizing the massive platforms of celebrities to disseminate life-saving information about the perils of synthetic drugs, which have become increasingly prevalent and dangerous.

Maltz specifically highlighted Taylor Swift’s potential to make a significant difference in the fight against drug abuse. With her massive following of 300 million on social media, Swift’s involvement could be a game-changer in reaching and influencing young people.

“Here’s the thing: Taylor Swift has 300 million followers. If she did one 30-second video about the dangers of synthetic drugs, she could literally save thousands and thousands of young kids because they listen to her. They follow her. They love her,” Derek Maltz said.

He’s right…it’s a wild idea, but he’s right! And the left has already leveraged their influence for bad, so why not for good instead?

While Swift is a central figure in this campaign, Maltz is casting a wide net to include other influential personalities, too. NFL stars Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts, along with WNBA player Caitlin Clark, are among those being encouraged to participate. The goal is to create a multi-faceted approach that reaches different segments of the youth population through their favorite sports and entertainment figures.

“My goal during this Super Bowl week is to make sure that we could better educate the nation’s celebrities, role models, social media influencers and professional athletes. We want them to better understand that this is something we need their help on,” Maltz emphasized.

The DEA is not leaving this initiative to chance. Maltz revealed that a senior special agent is working directly with the NFL Alumni Association to recruit celebrities for the cause. This strategic approach demonstrates the agency’s commitment to leveraging every possible avenue to combat drug abuse.

Let’s hope it works out!
