E1571: Numbers Coming From The Border Are Staggering!

The chaos at the southern border grew in August, according to new numbers the Department of Homeland Security released Monday that showed record levels of fentanyl and illegal immigrants being smuggled into the U.S. The fentanyl numbers were particularly troubling, setting yet another monthly record and topping July, which was already the worst month by far and Customs and Border Protection said it nabbed 203,597 people at the border last month and has now encountered more than 2 million illegal immigrants in fiscal 2022, which still has a month to go. It’s the sixth straight month that encounters topped 200,000. Hosted on Acast.
