Being “dangersous” does not enumerate a power to regulate it.

The Enumeration of the power to interdict drugs is under the Defense clause. I know people like to assert authority under the commerce clause, but that is just wrong. Drugs are an existential threat to any nation which tolerates them, and therefore authority is granted under the Defense of the nation clause.
