    Drugs are infused in America now more than ever. Joe Biden is allowing China to get these drugs in through Mexico and into the back door of America.. The Bidens are making millions on the death of America’s youth. China is eliminating 2 generation of America’s MOST precious commodity. Our kids and their (will NEVER be)kids

      Lol the drug problem in America has nothing to do with Biden lol this been goin on since the 80’s and before and he wasn’t president then

    • Jules says:

      I’m asking from whomever posted a comment about Biden is allowing drugs to enter America….drugs have been flowing into America since the 80’s and every president has allowed if that’s who you think is responsible. There is no one to blame except the insatiable need for drugs in america. Biden is no more guilty than trump the traitor and every president before him. That’s ridiculous to put that out as a comment. Research history before you make a statement like that

          Every generation it is a different drug that becomes a epidemic. It’s sad that the grandparents know their child is on drugs and allows the grandchildren to be exposed. If people would start calling in CPS. Then All theses innocent children will stop being neglected and dying. I am a Grandma (MEME). I personally would call authorities on my son if He was on drugs. I don’t watch the news much anymore Bc it all about drugs and murders. And it’s become so normal that no one is shocked or effected by another toddler dying. And in no way can anyone blame the president for it.

        Why don’t you do your research before making a ludicrous statement Trump is a traitor!!! You are obviously a liberal uneducated puppet who believes everything fake Biden and the Biden crime family has done which includes pedophilia, drugs, underground torture tunnels. Biden is as evil as they come. Trump is trying to save America and it is you who is a traitor okaying America at a 70% inflation increase, open borders allowing drugs and sex trafficking coming in all day everyday.
        Biden has invited drug lords and sex traffickers to come in. Start educating yourself on the real truth. Guess it’s ok for illegals to bring in crime, drugs and sickness every day. I’m praying daily that Trump and God will save America.
        You make me sick with your total lies!

          So ridiculously foul! If you people put as much faith in Jesus Christ as you do Trump, the world would be a better place. Donald Trump is not a savior. His ignorance divided our country like nothing I have ever seen. His outlandish behavior allowed all of the closet racists to come out loud and proud. It’s sad. Never put your faith in man.

    It’s bad enough that they are killing themselves with these nasty drugs, but now they are killing their helpless children. When is this going to stop!!! It is poisoning this whole generation. Don’t do drugs, but most important, if you do, keep the poison out of reach of your children. God help us!!!

  3. Greta Lowe says:

    I don’t think the drug problem is Biden s fault. The drug problem is bipartisan. It crosses all socioeconomic groups. One thing is for certain is this area is in the grips of it. The methamphetamine problem is worse than the opioid problem. Since it is entirely impossible to obtain opioids easily they have turned to
    methamphetamin now.
    What’s needed is more support for the addicts so they can get into treatment.

    • Toby says:
      3 years ago

      Of course the drug problem is Biden’s fault. He and his administration are the ones who are responsible for the boarder being open, and all of the drugs that are pouring into the country as a direct result of the open boarder policies. If you are so unaware of what is going on at our Southern Boarder. I suggest that you try news sources other than CNN and MSNBC. You are obviously a very uninformed person.

      • Jan says:
        3 years ago

        110% correct. Biden opened the border up after President Trump had closed it allowing all the even deadlier drugs in along with Covid. Those that disagree need to do a bit more research or pull their heads put of their arses.

  4. L. Gibson says:

    I disagree with Greta. The addict has enough support already. Treatment centers are on every corner these days. Yet they continue to do the poison. Lock them up . Then they will be forced to get clean.

Also caffeine cigarettes etc anything up ur before the almighty is a sin so right or wrong u do it and think it’s wrong it’s sin and oh yeah judgement is kinda funny bc from the book I read those judging is more guilty then those who actually doing it and who was it they arrested who oh yeah wasn’t Jesus him self once arrested (Matthew 26:47-56 but oh forbid me talk about that right it’s different y’all wake up help more with kindness n love then hatred love is god those that know not love know not god.

No such thing as normal either ppl grow up with different bk grounds taught. Different things like across seas they get aks at 4 and here toys only know what u are taught and around take that in consideration before throwing your little stumbling blocks besides I bet all y’all sin daily like myself i by no means have a heavenly ticket but seems like some y’all need wake up n take ur own inventory before condemning someone else have a good day we need no more hypocrites today or pots calling a kettle black

    Its coming across the mexican boarder like never before. It is totally Bidens fault. Trump had the boarder under control. Please stop watching the mainstream media’s fake news. Biden’s press secretary lies through her teeth. Kamala’s over the boarder and she’s also a disaster but they’re both the preferred color regardless of talent. Anyone who watches these two clowns knows what im saying is true. NBC,CBS,ABC,MSNBC,and CNN are spinning and censoring the news for the upcoming mid-terms. BTW arent the TV commercials these days pathetically funny? Another spin from the fake media.

  8. Debbie says:

    I think all of you are right. Drugs in America is a complex problem. Yes, it did start way back in the 80’s and the government made a lot of noise about stopping it, but did little else. Biden’s open borders has added to the problem allowing drugs, guns, human trafficking, and criminals come right on in. The treatment centers that exist are not affordable to most. There is much work to be done. Getting the govt to Really be on board would be a good first step

  9. Bobbi D says:

    To all you idiots out their that want to blame Biden for the drug problem we have in America. If you’re gonna blame our current president you need to blame all the presidents before him including the asshole president thats saying the election was stolen from him. We’ve had a drug issue in this country dating back to the 60’s when people were dropping acid. When ever a new drug comes along thats better and easier to make its gonna run rampid in this country and there is nothing you can do about it and no one but the manufacturer is to blame.

  10. Dawn says:

    The drug problem does not lie at the feet of any one person or one president. A completely open border DOES make the problem worse but even with a more strict border, the drugs were only slowed down. Yes the problem goes way back. And the lure of $$ corrupts many people including politicians, border agents, mayors, police, CIA, FBI, foreign countries etc. Money is made by turning the other cheek. Hook a country on drugs and they are more easily conquered. Weak people give into the lure of drugs. This is chemical warfare and part of a goal to destroy the sovereignty of the United States of America.

  11. K says:

    Clearly our current president and past presidents do not take the drug epidemic seriously or the US would not be supplied with drugs from other countries. At the end of the day…someone is allowing the drug problem to grow since the 80s. Big Pharmaceutical companies is our biggest enemy.
