Already this year, enough fentanyl has been seized at the U.S.-Mexico border to kill every American citizen -- twice

More Americans than ever before are dying because of fentanyl, and agents with Customs and Border Protection's Office of Field Operations say the Mexican cartel could be partly to blame.

Already this year, enough fentanyl has been seized at the U.S.–Mexico border to kill more than 700 million people.

One kilogram, just over two pounds, of fentanyl has the potential to kill 500,000 people, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration.

Just don’t ask our resident CINOs what to do about it, or Visa/MC might cut off services to the American public under a Republican POTUS to compel a non-response to a situation which has - to many of us - merited a MILTARY response for decades (it’s only gotten worse).

There’s a bit of sarcasm in there, but I have nothing good to say about our Ukraine interventionists who’ve aligned with the left.

Mexico WILL eventually command a military response, but don’t ask Hollywood what they think of that. /s

Illegal immigrants be damned. This alone
would be cause enough to seal our borders
tighter than a drum. Our American lives
are being threatened. Who’s to say a bucket
of this stuff couldn’t be dumped in our
local water supplies.

Not reported much because what a can of worms it opens in condemnation of the elitist-globalist way of life. 18 to 45 year-olds depressed, insufficient job opportunities and wages, rents driven up, crime up, much stemming from people pouring in to the country. Have gone backwards from their Mom and Dad’s standard of living. Throw in the loss of religion or faith which also shows itself in a cold society. Censorship, loss of bodily autonomy also. No way most of the media will touch. Aside from Tucker, Fox seems to just barely touch the surface of this. They still have a lot of Chamber of Commerce Republicans, Bush-Cheney types.

There is no way in hell the huge amount of fentanyl that comes out of China can go out without them knowing about it. It is a state operation and we should consider it an act of war.
