Opioid crisis: North Carolina congressman, doctor says 'every city is a border city' amid rising overdoses

Rep. Greg Murphy, R-N.C., says “every city is a border city” when it comes to the record amount of dangerous opioids flowing into the U.S. from Mexico and China.

"It affects every community, and the fact that this has been opened up along a very porous border … further reiterates the fact that every city in this country is a border city, every street a border street." Murphy told Fox News Digital in an interview. "And so as the Biden administration continues to ignore this, which is what they're doing. They're hoping it will just go away, and that people won't talk about it. … The mainstream media is not talking about it because again, as usual, they're protecting and the Democratic arm of this government. And that's a tragedy."

The North Carolina congressman feels the current administration is "very complicit in the death and destruction not only of life but of living for a generation of Americans."
