Yep:When you need to kill 57 Million Americans to make your Socialist Dystopia Happen, you of course would be opposed to Border Security.
Fentanyl seized by Border Patrol in record bust could have killed 57M, officials say
A Mexican national was arrested by U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents on Saturday with enough fentanyl to kill 57 million Americans, officials revealed Wednesday on Tucker Carlson Tonight.
The fentanyl seizure was a record amount, officials said in a news release.
This story gives credence to investing money into more technology and more guards with training at the entry ports.
When drugs come into the US in places other than the port of entries, it is a majority of the time, through tunnels, under the walls.
This story does nothing for building a wall. It actually backs up what opponents of the wall have been saying all along.
Thanks, Tree.
According to DHS 2018 seizures of Fentanyl, more than 500 pounds, were seized between the ports of entry. An all of the above approach is required.

"Fentanyl seizures are rapidly increasing, and most occur at ports of entry."

My mistake, I quoted 2017 numbers, not 2018.
Hundreds of pounds of fentanyl smuggled into the U.S. last year and seized by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) came directly from Mexico.
Customs authorities seized a total of 1,188 pounds of the synthetic opioid in fiscal year 2017, a 150 percent increase over the previous year.
“Half of the total seizures in term of weight happened at the U.S. Mexico border,” a CBP spokesman told CNSNews.com.
