One prime culprit: \u201cthe disaster Biden unleashed on our southern border.\u201d \u201cOverdose deaths from fentanyl coming across the border hit record levels in 2021,\u201d and the crisis has forced Customs and Border Protection to \u201cshift resources away from drug interdiction.\u201d Meanwhile, \u201cthe same cartels are engaged in both human and drug trafficking\u201d and use caravans to distract CBP and let shipments slip through. Finally, urban drug gangs supplied by cross-border shipments regularly engage in gun violence. \u201cUntil Democrats reverse course on border security \u2026 the crime wave will continue \u2014 as will Biden\u2019s collapse in the polls.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conservative_Corp_Americas_Woke_Racism\"><\/span>Conservative: Corp.
