WISCONSIN: Biden Can’t Escape Blame for Open Borders, Fentanyl Crisis

Opioids, drug cartels, and illegal aliens are contributing to an unprecedented crime wave across America, and voters know who’s responsible

Yet more proof we’ve been transported to the ‘70s, crime and novel drugs are tearing families apart and terrorizing our streets. Look no further than Milwaukee, the opioid capital of Wisconsin and one of the cities most devastated by America’s overdose epidemic, with over twice the number of overdose deaths than the rest of the state.

And like the 1970s, much of the garbage poisoning our youth comes from Latin America—only this time with aid from the communist Chinese and our own President’s open borders policy.

Fully 70 percent of likely Wisconsin voters rate Joe Biden’s handling of both borders as weak, per a new poll from Steve Cortes’ populist League of American Workers, which surveys an even number of Democrats and Republicans.

Some 9.3 million illegal aliens have attempted to enter the southern border since Biden took office in Jan. 2021. At least 6.3 million of them were granted access by federal agents defanged by this regime practically from its first day in power. Recall that Biden quickly reimplemented “catch-and-release,” which funnels illegal aliens into U.S. towns while they await court hearings often years in the future. And all of this was avoidable, the result of the radical Left’s anti-American agenda.

The immigration crisis has also opened the floodgates to illicit drugs, most alarmingly fentanyl and nitazene, the deadliest opioids in our nation’s history. Just last year, Border Patrol confiscated 27,000 pounds of fentanyl—it only takes a few grams to kill an adult—enough to kill 6 billion people.

With so much in the country, it’s affecting even non-drug users. An 8-year-old boy in Kentucky died last week from ingesting fentanyl hidden in strawberries at a school fundraiser. Earlier this month, an Alabama man was arrested after police discovered 176 fentanyl pills he’d stashed in easter eggs, which look oh-so-much like candy to tiny eyes.

58 percent of Wisconsin voters believe Biden bears “some” or a “great deal” of responsibility for the 1,600 Wisconsinites who overdosed from drugs last year, according to the Cortes poll. That figure rises to 75 percent if one includes voters who say only he had “not much” of a role in their deaths; less than a quarter say he isn’t at all to blame.
