And international Cargo facilities. It comes in on Millionaire's and Billionaire's yachts, private planes used by rich folks on tourist or business visas, and shipping containers, mixed in with other pharmaceutical or chemical shipments, then passed on to US gangs to sell to US citizens.
It's very often transported into the US "as a favor" between wealthy business or famous people living their best lives in a rarified world of privilege - people who generally skip customs or inspections.

Only a small percentage comes fast Miami Vice type cigarette boats, cartel owned mini-subs, or hordes of undocumented immigrants.
