Exclusive— Joe Lombardo: Biden’s Open Border, ‘Sisolak’s Soft-on-Crime Policies’ to Blame for Rising Fentanyl Deaths
Fentanyl deaths and drug trafficking are on the rise in Nevada, largely due to President Joe Biden’s open border and Democrat Gov. Steve Sisolak’s “soft-on-crime” policies, Republican gubernatorial candidate Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo told Breitbart News.
“As sheriff, I see the disastrous impact of Biden’s open border policies every single day. Joe Biden’s chaos at the border and Steve Sisolak’s soft-on-crime policies have emboldened drug traffickers and criminals who wish to do harm to our community. Nevadans are paying the price of Biden and Sisolak’s decisions,” Lombardo said.
In July alone, 2,071 pounds of fentanyl were seized nationwide, which is the equivalent of 469 million lethal doses. Last week, Nevada State Police seized 56 pounds of suspected fentanyl in Ely, and similar stories are popping up around the state. Just two milligrams of fentanyl is considered a deadly dose — “a size so small it could fit on the tip of a pen,” according to the Department of Justice.
Fentanyl is primarily manufactured in China before being flown into Mexico where the Mexican drug cartels then traffic the drug into American communities via the nation’s porous southern border. Lombardo’s campaign noted that while Biden’s “disastrous open border policies have made it easier for drug traffickers to bring drugs into the country, Steve Sisolak has made it easier for drug dealers and traffickers to operate in Nevada.”
“In 2019, Sisolak raised the substance amount required for a low-level drug trafficking charge by 2400 percent, from 4 grams to 100 grams. Sisolak also increased the substance amount for a high-level trafficking charge from 28 grams to 400 grams, a 1,328 percent increase – giving drug dealers and traffickers a huge break. Since 2019, trafficking charges with a weight of 100 grams or more have increased over 1,000 percent,” said Elizabeth Ray, Lombardo’s campaign spokesperson.
Breitbart News reached out to representatives for Sisolak and asked what he is doing to fight the fentanyl crisis and if he would like to respond to Lombardo’s accusations. He did not respond by the time of publication.
Numerous stories from local Nevada news outlets have begun to detail spikes in fentanyl deaths among young people and within the Hispanic community, which makes up 30 percent of the state’s population. In August of 2022, the Southern Nevada Health District reported that “fentanyl continues to be a significant public health concern in Clark County and is driving the increase in opioid-related deaths.” Clark County, the nation’s 14th-largest county, accounts for 70 percent of the state and includes Las Vegas.
“In 2021, there have been 619 drug overdose deaths among Clark County residents. Of these deaths opioids (prescription and illicit) accounted for 59.5 percent. Meanwhile, drug overdose deaths in Clark County increased 48.1 percent from 2019, whereas opioid-related deaths in Clark County increased by 56.6 percent in 2021. In 2021, the overdose death rate was highest in the 89101 ZIP code at 103.4 overdose deaths per 100,000 residents,” according to the Health District.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) states that nationwide overdose deaths involving synthetic opioids other than methadone, which includes fentanyl and fentanyl analogs, increased over 56 percent from 2019 to 2020. The number of overdose deaths involving synthetic opioids in 2020 was more than 18 times the number in 2013. Breitbart News’s John Binder noted in April that “four times as much fentanyl is flowing across the United States-Mexico border under President Joe Biden compared to two years prior when former President Trump was in office.”
Lombardo’s campaign said if he ousts vulnerable incumbent Steve Sisolak in November, he would add Nevada to the American Governors’ Border Strike Force, “which is an unprecedented partnership created by 26 Republican governors to target cartels and criminals seeking to take advantage of Biden’s border chaos.”
“As governor, Sheriff Lombardo is committed to reversing Sisolak’s disastrous soft-on-crime policies, which have undoubtedly contributed to the increase in fentanyl deaths in Nevada,” his campaign concluded.
EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Single Group of Nearly 600 Migrants Cross into Texas Border Town
EAGLE PASS, Texas — Over the course of an hour, a single group of nearly 600 migrants managed to cross the Rio Grande and surrender to Border Patrol agents. On Friday morning, the group of mostly single adult Venezuelan, Cuban, and Nicaraguan migrants were quickly sorted by nationality, gender, and family unit status. As buses arrived to transport the migrants to a nearby processing center, agents provided water and took basic biographical data from the migrants.
In what has become a daily routine, migrants stood in line waiting their turn to leave a rally point near a busy highway hoping to be released into the United States to pursue asylum claims. According to Border Patrol agents on the scene, the migrants are not amenable to swift return to Mexico under the CDC’s Emergency Title 42 COVID-19 authority due to their nationality. The group, according to the agents, will likely be released to the care of a non-government shelter where transportation to the interior of the United States will be coordinated.
This group of migrants adds to the more than 800 migrants crossing the Rio Grande in just three hours on Thursday. On Thursday morning, the largest of just two migrant groups making landfall was more than 500.
As Breitbart Texas looked on, the migrants smiled and waved signaling their enthusiasm at reaching the United States. Women and the few families with small children were escorted to the first transportation buses to arrive.
According to a source within CBP, the Border Patrol in Del Rio Sector was detaining more than 2,000 migrants in local stations and at a soft sided detention facility. The source says the pace of crossings is contributing to severe overcrowding. The source says areas reserved for recreation and outdoor activities are now being used to house the migrants as they await processing.

TX Border Sheriff: ‘Haven’t Seen Anything’ to Stop ‘Wave’ at Border, and Northern Cities ‘Will See It Eventually’
On Monday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Your World,” Maverick County, TX Sheriff Tom Schmerber said he hasn’t “seen anything that would stop this immigration problem coming through to the USA.” And that there is a “wave” of people coming through who “want to keep on going north. So, they will see it eventually. This wave’s going up in there in the north.”
Schmerber stated, “When it started, when I saw this problem, I was saying that it might go two years. We’re almost on the one-year period. And I’m thinking it’s going to be the second year going with this problem. Because I haven’t seen anything that would stop this immigration problem coming through to the USA. I worked with the Border Patrol, I retired from the Border Patrol and I have never seen something like this. Once in a while, I would see some kind of a — every time there was a change in administration over there in D.C., Washington D.C., we had a little problem, but would stop it right away. This is not happening right now.”
After the discussion turned to Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) busing migrants, Schmerber said, “Well, I think, there [are] two ways of me thinking. One would be, yes, he’s doing that so that people up north will see the problem that we have here over here. I mean, that’s — I see like, the northern states, they’re very comfortable. They don’t have — they don’t see these problems over here. But I do want to tell them that this is a wave. This is a wave…they want to keep on going north. So, they will see it eventually. This wave’s going up in there in the north. And hopefully, it’s not too late for them to try to control something.”

Ron Johnson: Obama Said Border Had a ‘Crisis’ When Numbers Were Less than 1/3 of What They Are Now
On Monday’s broadcast of Newsmax TV’s “Rob Schmitt Tonight,” Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) reacted to Vice President Kamala Harris maintaining the border is secure by pointing out that back in June 2014, then-President Barack Obama said there was a “humanitarian crisis” on the border when there were approximately 2,000 apprehensions per day on the southwest border, compared to the between 6,000 and 7,000 encounters per day at the border over the past two months.
Johnson said, “[T]he governors in the southwestern states there are dealing with about 7,000 people per day that they’re encountering, and because of the Biden administration’s open-border policy, processing and dispersing all around this country.”
He added, “Well, the Vice President, the president, and Secretary Mayorkas are as detached from reality as they are from the truth. The fact of the matter is that this is a crisis. Again, 7,000 people — President Obama declared it a crisis — a humanitarian crisis when it was 2,000 people a day. But what they consider a success is processing and dispersing within eight hours. They just got very efficient at processing and dispersing to all points of America, and it’s all okay. Unless they come to Democrat-controlled cities, then it’s a problem again. So, again, the hypocrisy is just jaw-dropping.”

Vice President Harris: 'The Border Is Secure'
(CNSNew.com) - Chuck Todd, host of NBC's "Meet the Press," asked Vice President Kamala Harris in recorded interview on Friday: "Since we're here in Texas, I want to ask you about the border. Would you call the border secure?"
Harris said it was. She said:
"I think that there is no question that we have to do what the president and I asked Congress to do, the first request we made: pass a bill to create a pathway to citizenship. The border is secure, but we also have a broken immigration system, in particular, over the last four years before we came in, and it needs to be fixed," Harris replied.
Todd pushed back: "We're going to have two million people cross this border for the first time ever. You're confident this border's secure?" he asked Harris.
"We have a secure border in that that is a priority for any nation, including ours and our administration. But there are still a lot of problems that we are trying to fix given the deterioration that happened over the last four years," Harris said.
"We also have to put into place a law and a plan for a pathway for citizenship for the millions of people who are here and are prepared to do what is legally required to gain citizenship. We don't have that in place because people are playing politics in a state like this and in Congress.
"By the way, you want to talk about bipartisanship on an issue that at one time was a bipartisan issue both in terms of Republican senators and even presidents."
Todd then asked Harris why the current labor shortage -- so many unfilled jobs -- is not the "motivating force to get something done" on immigration reform:
"I do believe that, for all reasonable people, all reasonable people are motivated and desirous that we would get something done," Harris said:
"I think a big part of the problem, though, is that there's been political gamesmanship with this issue suggesting that it's a zero sum game. If you want to deal with the issue, there are practical solutions, which include creating a pathway to citizenship, fixing a broken immigration system, dealing with the root causes of why people are fleeing their home when most people don't want to leave home.
"And if they do, it's usually because they're fleeing some harm, or they simply can't take care of their basic needs if they stay. There are solutions. And sadly, this has become such a partisan issue, instead of something where we work on it together, agreeing that what we're doing is not working as a nation. It's not working."
Todd's recorded interview with Harris was played Sunday on "Meet the Press."
Shortly after taking office, President Biden directed Vice President Kamala Harris to lead the administration’s diplomatic efforts to address the root causes of migration from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. Little has happened since then.
Neither Harris nor President Biden have witnessed the daily flood of foreigners streaming illegally over the southwest border, although Harris did visit an immigration processing Center in El Paso, Texas in June 2021.
Far from discouraging illegal immigration, the Biden administration has rescinded Trump-era policies, including "remain in Mexico," that successfully reduced the number of illegal crossings.
Joe Biden Asks Congress for $ Billions More to Fund His Catch-and-Release Network
The White House is asking Congress for another $5 billion to bus, fly, and house the southern flood of economic migrants into Americans’ workplaces and housing.
Any additional funding will accelerate the federal “cheap labor distribution [network] that too many politicians in Washington are willing to participate in,” said John Feere, a former homeland security official. He now works for the Center for Immigration Studies.
The inflow of workers, renters, and consumers “benefits groups on both sides of the border — governments, human smuggling operations, and businesses,” he told Breitbart News.
The request is part of a budget request — a “Short-term Continuing Resolution” — sent by the White House to Congress. The document asks Congress to spend billions of dollars on Democratic priorities, including $11.7 billion for Ukraine and more funds to run the federal government’s off-the-books migration network.
For example, the document asks for extra funding for the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, the Emergency Food and Shelter grant program, and the William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act (TVPRA) of 2008.
The statement asks for $1.8 billion to fund the TVPRA, which relays young migrants from their cartel-backed coyote guides at the border to federal agencies. The agencies then operate the North-side migration network and deliver the migrants for free to their illegal-migrant parents, “sponsors,” and employers throughout the United States:
Language is needed to appropriate $1.8 billion to the Department of Health and Human Services for the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), Refugee and Entrant Assistance account for the Unaccompanied Children program, Transitional and Medical Services program, and Refugee Support Services program. Without this anomaly, ORR will not have sufficient resources to care for or place additional unaccompanied children in shelters during the period of the CR, or to provide cash, medical assistance, and support services to humanitarian entrants, particularly in response to the increased number of Cuban entrants
…This request would provide $2.9 billion to the Disaster Relief Fund in the Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency to address ongoing and anticipated disaster response costs.
Since Biden’s inauguration, his deputies have allowed at least 3 million migrants to cross the southern border in search of jobs and housing.
That huge economic shock — when combined with the inflow of legal immigrants and visa workers — has delivered roughly one migrant for every two Americans who turned 18 in 2021 and 2022. In turn, that huge foreign inflow helps to reduce Americans’ wages and workplace automation and to inflate their housing costs — while steering more wealth to coastal investors.
Much of the inflow has been funded by quietly transferring money from other federal programs to fund the buses and non-profit shelters that are used by officials to smuggle migrants northwards. The money is often given to nonprofits to run portions of the government’s migrant network. In May, Politico reported:
The redirected funds include $850 million that Congress originally allocated to rebuild the nation’s Strategic National Stockpile, the emergency medical reserve strained by the Covid-19 response. Another $850 million is being taken from a pot intended to help expand coronavirus testing, according to three people with knowledge of the matter.
“The mass influx of illegal immigrants is creating extra costs on state and local levels, and the Democrats are hearing a lot of complaints from Democrat city officials,” Feere said. “Democrats have likely calculated that providing increased taxpayer monies to these local politicians is one way to keep them quiet about this administration’s ongoing effort to encourage illegal immigration,” he added.
For example, the Hill played up the Democrat’s claims that economic problems caused by Biden’s migration are the fault of Republicans who oppose the migration:
A group of House Democrats on Friday called on Congress to provide $50 million in federal funding to house and feed migrants bused to northern cities from Texas and Arizona.
…
“Instead of helping forge immigration solutions that work for Texas and the country, Gov. Abbott’s stunts are costly, ineffective, distracting and dangerous. They’re meant to create headlines and whip up resentment from the MAGA base rather than create good policy or advance the best interests of Texans, let alone immigrants and asylum seekers,” said Mario Carrillo, campaigns director for America’s Voice, a progressive immigration advocacy group.
The Democrats prefer to blame the GOP governors of Texas and Arizona for the flood of migrants who have been invited and admitted by President Joe Biden’s pro-migration border chief:
Since mid-April, the governors of Texas and Arizona have exploited and harmed approximately 10,000 vulnerable people fleeing desperate and dangerous situations in their home countries for political gain by busing them to D.C., New York City and Chicago.
The narrative-promoting article was written by Rafael Bernal, a recent immigrant who has covered migration, and corporate priorities issues for several years.
“The problem for the GOP is that they haven’t pushed back on the funding of open-border NGOs,” said Feere.
GOP legislators tend to remain passive as Biden’s deputies welcome, transport, and integrate economic migrants into Americans’ society, he said.
They haven’t demanded an increase in funding for [border enforcement] for example … The GOP needs to be focusing its energy on increasing resources for federal law enforcement if they wish to see illegal immigration curtailed. But it feels way too often as if the GOP is simply letting the mass immigration crowd get whatever they want.
There’s no doubt that well-moneyed interests are pressuring both political parties to keep cheap labor flowing into the United States. Of course, a number of Republican politicians are buying into this argument — that there’s a lack of labor and that the only fix is a massive increase in foreign labor and amnesty.
In reality, there’s no lack of labor. And the politician should be telling these business owners that they need to start offering better wages and improve working conditions to attract lawful residents to these jobs. They could invest in automation, which we’re seeing in a number of industries. But that requires an upfront cost and there’s little incentive for businesses to invest in automation when the federal government continues to deliver a dependent labor force.
The budget request is likely to get some support from Republicans.
They include Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), retiring Sen. Roy Blunt (R-MO), and threatened Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK). The spending plan is also backed by pro-migration House Republicans, including Adam Kinzinger (R-IL), Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-IA), Fred Upton (R-MI), Rep. Peter Meijer (R-MI), Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), Jenniffer Aydin González Colón (R-PR), and John Curtis (R-UT).
Many polls show the public wants to welcome some immigration. But the polls also show deep and broad public opposition to labor migration and the inflow of temporary contract workers into jobs needed by U.S. graduates.
This “Third Rail” opposition to the government’s extraction migration policy is growing, anti-establishment, multiracial, cross-sex, non-racist, and class-based. The opposition is bipartisan, rational, persistent, and recognizes the solidarity that American citizens owe to one another.

1300 Pounds of Meth Seized at Texas Port of Entry — Most Ever for Town
U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers in Del Rio, Texas, seized more than 1,300 pounds of methamphetamine being smuggled across the port of entry from Mexico into Texas on Labor Day. The drugs represent the largest seizure of methamphetamine in the history of the Del Rio Port of Entry.
CBP officers working the Del Rio International Bridge on Labor Day observed a 2016 Kenworth tractor hauling a shipment of diesel tank reservoir containers approaching from Mexico for entry into the United States, according to information obtained from CBP officials. The officers referred the driver to a secondary inspection area where for inspection by a K-9 team and a non-intrusive system.
During the search, the officers found 320 packages suspected of containing drugs. The 1,337 pounds tested positive as being methamphetamine, officials stated.
Officials estimate the value of the drugs at $11.9 million.
“This is a massive seizure of methamphetamine, it is (the) largest in the history of the port and it reflects the steadfast commitment of our officers to the CBP border security mission and their effective application of technology, training, and experience,” Port Director Liliana Flores, Del Rio Port of Entry said in a written statement.

J.D. Vance: Tim Ryan Claims to Back ‘The Working Man’ But Has No Plan to Secure Border, Tackle Fentanyl Crisis
J.D. Vance, the Republican running against Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) for Ohio’s open United States Senate seat, said recently on the campaign trail the impact of drugs and migration is “hugely negative” for Ohioans.
Vance, during his Wednesday appearance on Fox News Channel’s Mornings With Maria Bartiromo, spoke about the impact of an open U.S.-Mexico border, which has resulted in nearly five million border crossers and illegal aliens arriving since President Joe Biden took office and now more than 100,000 Americans dying annually from drug overdoses, many linked to fentanyl.
“This is one of the things that really bothers me about Tim Ryan. He says he stands for the working man,” Vance said, explaining that it is also “hugely negative” for Ohioans.
Vance noted that the millions of illegal aliens crossing the southern border under Biden are flooding the U.S. labor market, driving down wages, and forcing working class Americans to compete against a growing number of foreign workers for American jobs.
Ohio, Vance said, also remains the “third leading state when it comes to opioid overdose deaths.”
“Let’s actually secure the border so that we don’t have 100,000 Americans dying of fentanyl overdoses,” Vance said:
Joe Biden and Tim Ryan have basically turned the U.S. southern border into the drug and sex trafficking capital of the world. We have got to shut this down. We can’t run away from the border issue because it’s making our country poor. [Emphasis added]
Indeed, while multinational corporates, Wall Street, and real estate investors are the biggest beneficiaries of mass immigration to the U.S., working and middle class Americans suffer the most as wages are dragged down, the job market gets more saturated, and investment shifts increasingly to the coasts outside of middle American states like Ohio.
Corporate special interest groups, lobbying for an amnesty for millions of illegal aliens, have shown that such a plan drives tens of billions in investment to coastal states like New York and California while further gutting middle American states.

San Diego: Fentanyl Seizures Up 323%, Overdose Deaths Up 2,375%
(CNS News) -- San Diego and Imperial County comprise the epicenter of fentanyl drug trafficking in the United States, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ), which reported that seizures of fentanyl in San Diego were up 323% in FY2019-FY2021 and that fentanyl overdose deaths increased 2,375% in San Diego County between 2016 and 2021.
“A decade ago, we didn’t even know about fentanyl, and now it’s a national crisis,” said U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of California Randy Grossman. “The amount of fentanyl we are seizing at the border is staggering. The number of fentanyl seizures and fentanyl-related deaths in our district are unprecedented.”
More fentanyl is seized in San Diego and Imperial County than in any of the 300-plus ports of entry into the U.S., said Grossman's office in a press release.
In the firsts nine months of FY2022 (October 2021-June 2022) Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) captured 5,091 pounds of fentanyl. That "amounts to about 60 percent of the 8,425 pounds of fentanyl seized around the entire country," said the DOJ.
According to the Drug Enforcement Agency, "Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that is 50 times more potent than heroin and 100 times more potent than morphine. Just two milligrams of fentanyl, which is equal to 10-15 grains of table salt, is considered a lethal dose. Without laboratory testing, there is no way to know how much fentanyl is concentrated in a pill or powder."
In San Diego, the CBP said fentanyl seizures went up 323% in the last three years, "from just 1,599 pounds in FY 2019 to 6,767 in FY 2021."
In addition, the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office said that "fentanyl-related overdose deaths have increased 2,375 percent in San Diego County, from 33 in 2016 to at least 817 in 2021," according to the DOJ.
The DOJ also reported that Mexican drug cartels are heavily involved in fentanyl manufacturing and trafficking in the U.S., and that much of the precursor chemicals needed to make fentanyl come from Communist China.
“Fentanyl is an extremely dangerous narcotic that kills indiscriminately,” said HSI San Diego Special Agent in Charge Chad Plantz. “Fentanyl is not the type of drug you experiment with, and it is only a matter of time before drug users consume a fatal dose. This deadly drug does not discriminate nor do the transnational criminal organizations (TCO) who smuggle this dangerous drug."
These organizations "have no regard for the lives taken and the violence created by this illegal enterprise," said Plantz. "We will continue to work with our law enforcement partners and prioritize investigations targeting the drug cartels who are smuggling fentanyl into the United States and bring to justice any organization or individuals who seek to profit off the sale of this dangerous narcotic.”
Grossman's office explained that its is focused on prosecution of the criminals trafficking in fentanyl and prevention for the people tempted to partake in drug use.
“We continue to work with our law enforcement partners to pursue justice for the victims who die as a result of fentanyl trafficking and to prosecute the people responsible for this crisis," said Grossman, "from the Mexican drug cartel leadership, to the couriers, to the street dealers who distribute the fatal doses."
He added that in the Southern District of California over the last five years there has been a 1,600% increase in prosecutions of people engaged in fentanyl-related crimes.
Heroin is not produced in the United States. Every gram of heroin present in the United States provides unequivocal evidence of a failure of border security because every gram of heroin was smuggled into the United States. Indeed, this is precisely a point that Attorney General Jeff Sessions made during his appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on October 18, 2017 when he again raised the need to secure the U.S./Mexican border to protect American lives.”
Michael Cutler …..FrontPageMag.com
From April 2020 to April 2021, more than 100,000 Americans died from drug overdoses, according to data from the National Center for Health Statistics. An overwhelming majority of those deaths came from opioids, and fentanyl smuggling has surged at the southern border since the start of Joe Biden's presidency.Joseph Simonson and Collin Anderson
“Joe Biden is great on immigration. I guess depends on your perspective. If you’re a human trafficker, or drug dealer, you’d give him an A-plus, but theAmerican people would give him an F. The crisis at our border was not only entirely predictable, it was predicted. I predicted that if you campaign all year long on open borders, amnesty, and health care for illegals, you’re going to get more migrants at the border. That’s what’s happened since the election.”
SEN. TOM COTTON
Likewise, the Biden-Harris plan for national immigration policy — which seeks to drive up legal and illegal immigration levels to their highest levels in decades — offers a flooded labor market with low wages for U.S. workers and increased bargaining power for big business that has long been supported by Wall Street. JOHN BINDER
These so-called undocumented immigrants are becoming legally indistinguishable from citizens as they openly reside in 500 sanctuary jurisdictions, receive welfare, education and medical care, are granted drivers licenses, and given tuition breaks at public universities as they, not legal immigrants or American citizens, are exempt from federal immigration, health and travel laws.
