A two-milligram dose of fentanyl can be potentially fatal. The day before, 150,000 pills were found hidden in a vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re going to continue to employ the strategy that we\u2019ve been employing, which is aggressive prosecutions and prevention,\u201d U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of California Randy Grossman told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/arizona-border-officers-find-more-than-fentanyl-pills-hidden-train-arriving-mexico\">Fox News Digital<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very focused on making sure that we deter crimes at the border, including the scourge of fentanyl trafficking that\u2019s killing our residents, as well as preventing deaths in our community by getting into the community through an abundance of outreach programs in partnership with our law enforcement agency partners,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The Drug Enforcement Administration <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-11569627\/US-border-guards-700-000-fentanyl-pills-196lbs-meth-hidden-inside-train.html\">stated<\/a> that 50.6 million fake prescription pills laced with fentanyl and 10,000 pounds of fentanyl powder had been found this year. Fentanyl can be as much as 50 times as strong as heroin.<\/p>\n<p>Drug cartels pushing fentanyl have even entered the world of comic books; a comic book centered on a vigilante tracking down fentanyl dealers at the southern border went looking for public funds to support it, only to get banned on Twitter, then reportedly get shadow-banned on Indiegogo. Then the comic book was banned by Kickstarter after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodintoto.com\/private-american-censored-elon-musk-twitter\/\">leftists complained<\/a> the book featured a \u201cracist\u201d tone.<\/p>\n<p>The Left-wing Daily Kos <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailykos.com\/stories\/2022\/12\/7\/2140583\/-Punisher-creator-Mike-Baron-releases-another-Racist-AF-comic-book\">described<\/a> \u201cThe Private American,\u201d whose protagonist is a Cuban-American and ex-Green Beret who suffered tragedy at the hands of drug cartels before seeking them out, as \u201cracist propaganda and stochastic terrorism disguised as a funny book.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a classic vigilante story in the American mode,\u201d Mike Baron, the book\u2019s author,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=EC8b5TkPEsc\">stated<\/a>. \u201cI used to write \u2018Punisher\u2019 for Marvel, and this is the same type of character. In fact, this book came about when I asked myself, \u2018What would the punisher be doing today?\u2019 He\u2019d be down on the southern border trying to stop the flow of fentanyl into the country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s nothing against the immigrants who are trying to cross over just to get a better life; in fact, he\u2019s there to save them, and that\u2019s when we first meet him. He\u2019s saving a young girl from being raped,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials, a train heading into Arizona from Mexico this week was caught transporting hundreds of thousands of fentanyl pills and 196 pounds of methamphetamines.
