"Centuries ago, there were the Opium Wars that almost brought a dynasty to its knees, and I think that China is now exacting that same fate on the West [and] on America… they're bringing in the majority of the precursors that it takes to create the fentanyl.

They give it to the cartels in Mexico, and then Mexico is producing the product that they're transporting into Arizona and America," Lamb told Breitbart.

In 2021, there were roughly 2,000 fentanyl-related deaths in Arizona. Meanwhile, there have already been at least 7,000 deaths from the fatal drug in 2022.

Fentanyl is 50 times stronger than heroin, just two milligrams (smaller than a penny) can be enough to be fatal.
