This includes over 40,000 pounds of marijuana, \u206313,000 \u2062pounds of meth,\u200d 11,000 pounds of cocaine, and a staggering 2,700 pounds of fentanyl.\u200b It&#8217;s important to note that these figures only account\u200b for\u2062 drugs discovered between ports of entry, not\u200c at official entry points.<\/p>\n<p>Fentanyl, a highly potent \u200dopioid, is so deadly that a lethal \u2064dose\u2063 can\u2063 fit on the tip of a pencil. \u2063Moreover, it is often mixed with other drugs, making it even\u200c more dangerous as users may unknowingly consume \u2063fentanyl. The Drug Enforcement Administration states that just two milligrams of fentanyl can be fatal. Considering \u200dthe 2,700 pounds of fentanyl confiscated at the border,\u200b it is enough to potentially kill nearly double the \u2062entire population \u200cof the United States.<\/p>\n<p>This shocking statistic \u200dis just the latest in \u2064a series of \u200calarming\u200d news \u2063emerging from\u2064 the \u200bsouthern \u2062border, shedding\u2063 light on the crisis involving migrants,\u2064 drugs, and other \u2063illicit \u200bitems entering the country.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, \u2063distressing photos surfaced of \u200da Border Patrol agent who was \u200creportedly brutally attacked \u2063by \u200dan illegal immigrant,\u2063 leaving \u200bhim bloodied and injured.<\/p>\n<p>Sources revealed to \u200dFox News that there were a \u2064staggering 11,000 migrant border crossings\u2063 in\u200c a \u2064single day, marking\u2062 it as the &#8220;single \u200bhighest day in\u2063 recent \u2064memory.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite internal documents showing that the \u2063Biden administration was aware of the impending surge and failed to take action,\u2064 Democrats are pointing fingers\u2063 at\u2062 Republicans for the\u200d border crisis.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> \u2063 What impact will\u200b the seizure of such a substantial amount of drugs have on disrupting the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/colombian-authorities-seize-80m-in-cocaine\/\" title=\"Colombian authorities seize M in cocaine\">illicit drug trade<\/a> and preventing\u2064 these \u2062substances from reaching our streets?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Onfirmed\u200b that they recently seized\u200b\u200c a record amount of drugs\u200b at the \u2064southern border.
