New York state seized record amount of fentanyl in 2022: DEAAuthorities seized record amounts of fentanyl-laced prescription pills and powder in New York state in 2022, fueling more than 2,300 fatal overdoses in New York City alone, officials say.

This must be misinformation because I just watched Biden on TV saying they have X-rays to catch these illegal drugs. He said something like 20,000 lbs was seized that could kill a thousand people. Does he have a clue? Hey Joe, enough to kill everyone in America…wow Democrats aren’t going to do anything about it.
