With all signs indicating that President Joe Biden will run for reelection, he has apparently come to the conclusion that he must pay a first-ever visit to the wide-open southern border and feign some concern. And while the immediate impact of 5 million-plus illegal immigrants may not be felt right away by most Americans, the record levels of fentanyl flowing across the border is a whole other matter.
Fentanyl use is up all across America, as are overdoses of the highly dangerous drug — even in the classroom, as seen in November when an art teacher overdosed on fentanyl.
Frank Thompson, who teaches at Roosevelt Intermediate School in Westfield, overdosed in front of students while in the classroom. Students found the suburban New Jersey middle school teacher unconscious, according to the Westfield Police Department. When officers arrived, an unresponsive Thompson was being treated by a school nurse. One of the officers recognized the signs of an opioid overdose and administered Narcan, a potentially lifesaving nasal spray medication that can revive someone who has overdosed on opioids.
