Police in Auburn, Maine arrested a couple last Friday after their 9-month-old baby overdosed on the highly-potent synthetic drug fentanyl, NEW CENTER Maine reports. It only takes the equivalent of four grains of salt of fentanyl to kill the average American adult.

Auburn’s fire department was soon called to the couple’s home last week where the child was found unresponsive, according to the news channel. The baby received Narcan, an antidote to the drug, at the hospital, and is said to be recovering, the report noted.

Police found traces of fentanyl in the home after carrying out a search warrant. Matthew Mcleod, 30, and Valene St. Onge, 29, were arrested and their baby was taken from their custody. The two face charges of furnishing schedule W drugs. St. Onge was also charged with endangering the welfare of a child, according to the report.

In 2018, Sara A. Carter produced the documentary “Not in Vein” to showcase the devastation the trafficking of narcotics into this country wreaks on our nation.

In the midst of the epidemic of the novel coronavirus, there exists a worsening epidemic of drug addiction to opioids. The Washington Post released a report Wednesday that detailed the overwhelming spike in overdose deaths since the start of the COVID-19 lockdowns.

“We’ve literally run out of wheeled carts to put them on.”

Columbus, Ohio coroner Anahi Ortiz, who is featured in Carter’s film, told The Washington Post, “We’ve literally run out of wheeled carts to put them (bodies) on.”

New House Judiciary Report: Biden-Harris Funneled Taxpayer Money to UN to Support Open-Border

A new report released just before the weekend details how the Biden-Harris administration funneled millions in taxpayer dollars to the United Nations to support their open-border initiatives.

The House Judiciary Committee’s GOP members released the 12-page report Friday, titled “Inside the Biden-Harris Administration’s Open-borders Alliance with United Nations Bureaucrats”.  The report shows how there have been an estimated 5.8 million illegal aliens released into the U.S. since January 2021, with an additional 1.9 million illegal aliens deemed as “gotaways.”

“The images of mass illegal immigration and chaos at the southwest border became a political liability for President Biden and Vice President Harris. But rather than fix the actual problem of illegal immigration, the Biden-Harris administration engaged in misdirection – teaming up with open-borders bureaucrats at the United Nations to allow aliens to bypass the southwest border altogether,” the report states in its executive summary.

Approximately $67.1 million of U.S. taxpayer dollars was spent by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to fund the Safe Mobility Offices (SMOs), with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) spending another $14.6 million in taxpayer funds for the initiative, equating to over $80 million in total.

The report goes on to note the State Department announced the Safe Mobility Initiative in June 2023, a plan to allow illegal aliens to “sidestep” the southern border. It was implemented under the direction of the Biden-Harris administration.

TheUNHCR reportedly said the initiative would let migrants “avoid the risks associated with onward movement,” meaning undocumented migrants were swiftly moved from the southern border and into the interior of the U.S. to avoid the “damaging optics at the border.”

The initiative further enables aliens outside of the U.S. to consult with foreign nationals working for the UNHCR, and the International Organization for Migration. These organizations facilitate illegal migrants to resettle in the U.S. through various means, including labor pathways and family reunification.

According to the report, the Safe Mobility Offices are located throughout Guatemala, Costa Rica, Colombia, and Ecuador and are all paid for with taxpayer money. The committee estimates under the Biden-Harris administration, more than 18,000 aliens from Central and South America have resettled in the U.S. through the initiative.
