I want to tell everybody how this happened. I sent President Trump some information. We have a
gigantic opiate problem in this country, obviously. In 2024, more than 80,000 people died of overdoses.
It's a horrible number. And there's more than 5 million people that are addicted to opiates
right now in this country. With one dose of Ibogaine, more than 80 percent of people
are free of that addiction. With two doses, it's more than 90 percent. I sent him that information.
The text message came back, sounds great. Do you want FDA approval? Let's do it.
It was literally that quick. These drugs are illegal not because they're harmful.
They're illegal because of the 1970 Controlled Substances Act that was passed by the Richard
Nixon administration. They did it to target the civil rights movement and the anti-war movement.
It's not because these drugs harm people. And for 56 years, we've lived under those
terrible conditions. We're free of that now. We're free of that now.
Thanks to all these people that you see next to me, and thanks to President Trump.
