Set up the machine guns and kill every illegal coming over the border. Doesn't matter what color, sex, age, nothing. Kill them all.
Border Patrol agents confiscated enough fentanyl in the 2023 fiscal year
to kill every American, according to the latest data from the southern
border.
Border Patrol chief Jason Owens said Tuesday on X, formerly known as
Twitter, that agents seized more than 40,000 pounds of marijuana, 13,000
pounds of meth, 11,000 pounds of cocaine, and 2,700 pounds of fentanyl.
The figures only included drugs found between ports of entry, not at
official crossings.
A lethal dose of fentanyl can fit on the tip of a pencil, and the drug
is often cut with other drugs, meaning users can unknowingly take drugs containing fentanyl. Two milligrams of fentanyl is a lethal dose,
according to the Drug Enforcement Administration, which means the 2,700
pounds of the drug confiscated at the border is enough to kill the U.S. population nearly twice over.
The Border Patrol statistics were the latest news from the southern
border to highlight the crisis of migrants, drugs, and other contraband
coming into the country.
Photos surfaced this week of a Border Patrol agent who was reportedly
beaten and bloodied by an illegal immigrant.
Border Patrol sources told Fox News on Monday that they recorded 11,000
illegal border crossings over the previous 24 hours, "the single highest
day in recent memory."
Democrats have blamed Republicans for the border crisis. But the
Washington Free Beacon reported that the Biden administration saw the
migrant surge coming and failed to act.
