Biden's killer border policies
Republican Tennessee Senator Bill Hagerty decried the Department of Homeland Security’s response to the surges of illegal migrants attempting to cross into the United States, saying that the effects of the border crisis “are killing our kids here in Tennessee.”

“They’ve been doing their best to hide it. Senator Marsha Blackburn and I have been all over this trying to get more clarity out of the Department of Homeland Security—out of DHS,” he said. “They have been not forthcoming on this, but they continue to move people across the border.”
Hagerty also claimed that fentanyl deaths in Tennessee continued to rise, which he pinned in part on the large amount of the illicit drug that is smuggled over the border.
“[The] incidents of fentanyl overdoses and deaths continue to rise month after month. If that’s not a surrogate, I don’t know what it is, but they are killing our kids here in Tennessee,” he said.
Just last week, Border Patrol agents arrested two men for attempting to smuggle over $80,000 of illicit narcotics near the El Centro sector, including fentanyl, heroin, and marijuana.
“The 33-year-old male driver and 39-year-old male passenger were in possession of .68 pounds of fentanyl (approximately 3000 pills) with an estimated street value of $46,410, 4.45 pounds of heroin with an estimated street value of $36,360, 2.01 grams of methamphetamine with an estimated street value of $80.40, and 5.5 grams of marijuana with an estimated street value of $1.23,” Customs and Border Protection reported.

Texas has also been complaining about fentanyl imports that are happening because of Biden's open border policies. The President appears to have made the decision that importing immigrants to change the demographics in red states is more important for Democrats than stopping killer drugs and the Mexican cartels who are also making money off the migrants.
