Published | Video Starts at 00:51

We had to spend the money as a state to basically go defend our own border. The amount of drugs and fentanyl crossing that border every single day. I talked about Fentanyl, the number one killer of 18-45 year olds in this country. Fentanyl, poisonous. And we have a federal government that knows fentanyl is being made in China, shipped through three cartel families in Mexico, coming across our southern border and killing our kids. (00:51–00:57)

CLAIM

Asserts that fentanyl is the leading cause of death for individuals aged 18-45 in the U.S.
