Jesse Ventura: “Afghanistan is the biggest opiate producer and America is the biggest opiate abuser.”

Jesse Ventura and producer Brigida Santos talk about the 18-year anniversary of US combat operations in Afghanistan, and whether the country’s opium production plays a role in fueling the opioid crisis at home. Author Ben Westhoff discusses his book, ‘Fentanyl Inc: How Rogue Chemists are Creating the Deadliest Wave of the Opioid Epidemic.’
