  <body><![CDATA[<p>The Sam Nunn School of International Affairs at Georgia Tech invites you to join the Honorable John Tien, former deputy secretary of Homeland Security and a Nunn School distinguished professor of the practice, and Jake Braun, Tien's former senior counselor for policy and former acting principal deputy national cyber director, for a fireside chat. They will discuss Braun’s newest book, which details the development of the first-ever U.S. strategy to dismantle the Sinaloa Cartel and its network of Chinese chemical suppliers.</p><p>In <em>Fentanyl: Fighting the Mass Poisoning of America and the Cartel Behind It</em> (Bloomsbury Academic 2025), Braun reveals the inside story of how the U.S. built a secret campaign to fight the deadliest crisis in modern history. As reported in the journal <em>Science</em>, the subsequent drop in fentanyl-related incidents was largely due to these enforcement efforts.</p>]]></body>
