Well, of course you speak the most honest truth and the 25th would be fine, all except for that one little problem in the room-- --
We both know that democrats have long since abandoned common sense and decency nor any concern for anything which does not add to their power. So to that effect, it is not a matter of reasoning with anyone because no one can be diametrically wrong at every turn 100% of the time unless it is deliberate, and so, it now must be a matter of sheer survival, from an enemy who is out to destroy you, because America cannot exist in any shape or form of itself as known for the past 250 years and the radical left achieve any part of its goals as they desire.
You're right, tbf. I've been looking up the 2022 stats on fentanyl overdosing, but for some reason stats don't seem to be available, so I had to go on the 2021 stats to find this:
The Fentanyl Crisis in America is Getting Worse
10.20.22
Our Commitment to America is to Secure the Border, Stop the Scourge, & Save Lives
The fentanyl crisis is killing more people than ever and plaguing communities across America – and it’s being fueled by President Biden and his failure to secure the southern border.
In
2021, nearly 108,000 people died of drug overdoses; 71,000 of whom
died from fentanyl or fentanyl-related substances. Illicit fentanyl overdose deaths among teens accounted for 77% of adolescent overdose deaths in 2021. Illicit fentanyl overdoses are now the
number one cause of death among adults 18-45 – more than COVID-19, cancer, heart disease, and all other accidents.
The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) recently
issued a report on the opioid crisis, including the worsening fentanyl crisis.
Here’s what you need to know:
- “Deaths involving opioids increased dramatically during the pandemic, driven by a sharp increase in fatalities involving fentanyl.”
- “A fourth wave of the crisis seems to be emerging, one characterized by the use of illegally manufactured opioids in combination with psychostimulants such as cocaine and methamphetamine.”
- “In September 2021, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) issued a public safety alert about the increase in counterfeit prescription pills that contain fentanyl and methamphetamine.” This was the first public safety alert in six years.
- “Mexico is the primary source of illicitly manufactured fentanyl, which is made from precursor chemicals that are largely purchased from China.”
- “Fentanyl can be produced more cheaply than heroin because it is made from ingredients in a lab. In addition, the chemicals required to make fentanyl are not always regulated and can be acquired relatively easily from countries that produce chemicals and pharmaceuticals— allowing fentanyl manufacturers to adjust if the supply from a particular source is reduced.”
- “The supply of fentanyl and related substances increased because of changes in the market for those drugs. The ability to purchase such substances online (and the associated use of shipping services for distribution) has facilitated the purchase of fentanyl, related substances, and the precursor chemicals for making fentanyl, because they are relatively cheap to transport over long distances by mail and parcel delivery.”
In short, the report further reveals how fentanyl is easily and cheaply made, easily smuggled across our southern border from Mexico, and easily accessible through online platforms like Snapchat and Instagram.
To protect communities across the country, House Republicans’ Commitment to America is to secure the southern border and help stop the record amount of fentanyl killing more people than ever, including children and young adults.
The HALT Fentanyl Act, led by E&C Leaders Morgan Griffith (R-VA) and Bob Latta (R-OH), would make the emergency class-wide scheduling order for fentanyl-related substances permanent and give law enforcement the tools they need to keep these extremely lethal and dangerous drugs off our streets.
Because of their soft-on-crime agenda, Democrats blocked this three times on the House floor. They refuse to help address record-high overdose deaths from deadly fentanyl-related substances crossing our border.
We’re also demanding Big Tech platforms do more to crack down on illegal fentanyl sales and prevent criminals from exploiting these platforms to sell this deadly poison. They are buying counterfeit pills from drug dealers on Snapchat, TikTok, and Instagram that they believe are something else but are laced with fentanyl. As the DEA’s Public Safety Alert warned, these counterfeit pills are killing children and young adults instantly.
Bottom line: Americans want a secure border and safer communities, and they want leadership that reflects these priorities, which includes keeping dangerous drugs – like fentanyl – from entering our country and poisoning our loved ones. House Republicans are committed to delivering on this promise and keeping our families safe. After a year marked by tragic death, it’s time we retake control of our communities.

Why are the Democrats playing all this down? They control all the information, and I can't find the 2022 so-far-stats-info on fentanyl. All I saw was a claim the death rate is exponentially up. Stats: none. The Democrats control information, and it's more important to them to brag on how Steve Bannon was sentenced to 4 months for some minor infraction involving the truth he was telling about their discouraging derelection of duty. If they think they're smelling like roses on election, I hope the American people send them the message that the public is not ignorant of their extreme hatred for half of the people in this country who vote Republican. May God bless our sad country as we bury hundreds of thousands of children since Biden opened the border to the drug lords, rapists, murderers, and we likely never will know how many of them died on the trip before they got to the border. There is one good thing about recent crossers one of my stats lookups said, and that is there are fewer children and more adults pushing through illegal channels to get here. For some reason the Democrats are discouraging Venezuelans for the moment before the voting day approaches a couple of weeks from today (10/22/22). The people I've met from Venezuela in years past became good citizens, and they're very alert.
