Fmr. Clinton and Bush Drug Czar: ‘Control of the Border Will Discourage People from Trying to Penetrate with Drugs’

‘200 people are dying a day of overdoses let alone uncounted thousands being addicted and people are saying this isn’t a real problem’

EXCERPT:

KILMEADE: “John, this is not going to help to put up some type of barrier?"
WALTERS: "Yeah. That’s ludicrous. We are losing strategically now because we got too many people on guard duty between the ports of entry and we are not channeling people into areas that we can sort them and analyze correctly. Obviously, a fixed barrier and a control of the border will discourage people from trying to penetrate with drugs; 200 people are dying a day of overdoses let alone uncounted thousands being addicted, and people are saying this isn’t a real problem. That’s kind of horrifying that our national leaders are just dismissing the massive amounts of death here, and if we don’t change the strategic landscape on the ground, less guard duty, more control and sorting, channel at controlled ports of entry, we're going to continue to have unbelievable and historic carnage of death from drugs alone."
