The fentanyl crisis is now worse than ever, as seizures of the illegal drug have skyrocketed since Biden took office.

From Breitbart. Four times as much fentanyl is flowing across the United States-Mexico border under President Joe Biden compared to two years prior when former President Trump was in office.

During the launch of Reps. Darrell Issa (R-CA) and Ken Calvert’s (R-CA) congressional caucus dedicated to the fentanyl crisis, U.S. Border Patrol Agent Mark Dunbar of the Murrieta Station in southern California noted that the level of fentanyl seizures has skyrocketed in the last year.

“Across sectors, we’re seeing the amount of fentanyl coming across the border almost doubling,” Dunbar said. “What we’re seeing coming across is equal to the amount of Americans who are dying from it in the U.S.”

In Fiscal Year 2019, about 2,800 pounds of fentanyl was seized at the border. The following year, that figure capped out at 4,800 pounds of fentanyl seized. By Fiscal Year 2021, which represents most of Biden’s first year in office, fentanyl seizures skyrocketed to about 11,200 pounds….

The figures indicate that fentanyl seizures under Biden, last year alone, have quadrupled since Fiscal Year 2019 when Trump was in office.

As Dunbar noted, fentanyl is primarily flown into Mexico from China before the Mexican drug cartels then traffic large quantities across the southern border. Only a fraction of the fentanyl trafficked across the border is seized…

Father, change our leaders’ hearts about the border. Change their uncaring attitude; it the dangers to people before their eyes to see the danger to their children and grandchildren. Open their hearts to you and if they will not listen, replace them. Hear our prayers, O Lord. Protect our children and our citizens.

Lord Jesus, You alone know the issues that face our nation. We pray fervently that, by your grace and mercy, that something be done to stop this fentanyl flow across our border. It would appear, in the natural, that satan is having a field day. We, as Your children who are called to be intercessors, know not to be deceived by this. We put ALL our hope, faith, and trust in You.
