> Trump has indeed declared a national emergency at the border. But there is nothing "extraordinary" or "unusual" about either illegal migration or cross-border fentanyl smuggling
Yes really. Illegal migration is not extraordinary or unusual in any definition of the terms; the fentanyl crisis can't be stopped at Mexico's border according to the DEA's own words[0].
Consider actually researching the topic at hand before responding to it for the purposes of defending a politician. This is the same flytrap that catches liberals who rush in to defend Chomsky or Žižek after they make a vague and absent-minded claim. Think before you take a bullet for some fickle swamp creature, and maybe you'll come to learn what self respect is.
> The #1 cause of death of working age adults during the pandemic was not covid. It was opiods.
How scandalous! Imagine if the United States was complicit in the manufacture, prescription and distribution of opiates to their own citizens and nations abroad. It's a real shame that there's nothing the United States government can do to stop their citizens from getting addicted to extremely potent, expensive and lethal drugs. Absolutely nothing - their hands are tied, guys.
Really?
