No.. People's decisions and personal choices are responsible for Fentanyl crisis. Try again governor dinkus. When is this guy getting indicted for freezing his own constituents to death (While keeping empty office building with full power while his bloated daddy Cruz runs to Cancun anyways?
Both the user and the seller are equally guilty. No one forces those from south of our border to smuggler drugs into the U.S. How about staying on topic? It has nothing to do with Governor Abbott himself. Nice deflection though. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Some times you and I agree though both of us may deny it.
One little problem however. They guys running the drugs are not from south of the border. At this point it is reported that most of those running the drug import system are bi-ntional...US and Mexico. The thinking is that those interested in that business have achieved US citizenry or at least got their children in.
So basically our legal immigrants or their children run the drug imports.
I think to some degree you have to understand that in the SW US much of the population follows standards different than the US and Mexico.

Cool story, but wrong. Mexican cartels are using their own members and other illegal aliens, like those who can't afford the smuggling fee to pass through cartel controlled territory in Mexico.
Derek Maltz, former head of the DEA’s special operations division said in March:
Quote:
“The open border is a disaster. It just increases the [cartels’] ability to move drugs freely into America.
“Also, most importantly, it allows them to get their command and control operatives in the [United States] to establish the stash houses, the distribution outlets, the money collection points, so they have lots of people in America who are able to operate freely around the country.”
Quote:
The cartels control the southern side of the U.S.–Mexico border and anyone who crosses illegally has to pay them. Many can’t afford the smuggling fees and become indentured to the cartels once they reach the United States.
All reporting shows that opioids come primarily through ports of entry, not between ports of entry. I could have sworn there was bipartisan interest in strengthening border security where it counts for something.
He blamed the Biden administration for diverting law-enforcement resources toward accommodating migrants at the expense of border security. Abbott asserted that fentanyl, a highly addictive synthetic opioid that is sometimes incorporated into other drugs, is infiltrating Texas’s interior.
Yeah, let's pamper these so-called migrants and worry about getting them into our country and providing for them rather than the drugs coming through our border addicting and killing Americans.
No more money for the border wall to help stop this nonsense instead Biden chooses to do this......
Biden’s fiscal package includes financing, $4.3 billion worth, for refugee services to help resettle 110,000 more migrants than was the case under Trump, as well as $861 million to increase security and economic support for Central American nations (which has never worked). It also diverts $891 million to hire more immigration judges and support staff to process court backlogs.
Yeah, Biden wants them processed to he can release them faster into our country.
China has been the primary source of fentanyl for the past decade.
Most opioid/ opiate ODs are attributed to fentanyl.
The current situation at the border is as insane as it was in 2019.
Did everybody miss the opiod crisis during the last Presidents term or something? This isn't new. We're actually in the third wave now.
Indeed.
The demand for powerful opioids/ opiates by US people is insatiable.
Well more than $1 trillion has been spent on the failed War on Drugs since the 80’s.
