In a truly bizarre and disturbingly inaccurate tweet, Marjorie Taylor Greene recently claimed that people are being "poisoned" with drugs laced on car door handles. She claims that a group text she was sent proves this, but the kind of drugs in question aren't even capable of being absorbed through human skin unless there was continuous contact FOR HOURS. She's using this as an excuse to attack Biden, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

So last week, Marjorie Taylor Green tried to take a shot at the Biden administration by sharing a story that nobody is able to corroborate, where she actually put a screenshot of a group text, not a group text that she's on as far as I know, but a group text where one person in the text is telling the rest of the family that so and so was at the TJ Max parking lot, touched their car handle and got fentanyl poisoning and almost died. So here is what Marjorie Taylor tweeted out along with that image of the alleged group chat. Fentanyl poisonings aren't just something you see on the news. It's now so common. It's in your family group text. No one is safe. Over 300 people are dying every day because the Biden men refuses to secure our border because, you know, people are touching their car handles and dropping dead because criminals are just out there putting fentanyl, expensive fentanyl that they could make money off of.

But instead of that, they just wanna kill people, right? I mean that's, that's how drug dealers work. They're not in it for the money. Conservatives are the dumbest people and no one should ever listen to them. Because here's the thing, now medical experts in response to Marjorie Taylor Green's idiotic tweet, have had to come out and say, Fentanyl is not absorbed through the skin unless you get a prescription fentanyl patch. In which case it has to sit on you for hours for it to enter your bloodstream because powdered, fentanyl pill, fentanyl, whatever it is, doesn't go into your skin. Now if you had an open wound, you know, an actively bleeding open wound, you could probably get some fentanyl in your bloodstream that way they say, um, if you had it on your fingers and then, you know, touched your nose, really kind of, I guess, shoved it up in there, you could get poisoning that way if there was enough there.

But it would, it would take a decent amount more than you could probably get to sit on a car door handle. But other than that, there's no way this story could possibly even be true. It's also not true, by the way that Biden's just letting all this fentanyl come across the border. You know how we know that? Because every couple of days we get news about a big fentanyl bust, people trying to bring it across the border and they get caught. And then what conservatives do is they'll put that out there on Twitter and be like, See, this is what's happening in Biden's America. If you've spent any time on Twitter in the last eight months, you've seen these stories and you've seen the idiot conservatives trashing Biden because border patrol caught people trying to bring drugs. Like the drugs aren't making it to the street. They were caught, they were seized, they're being destroyed. And the

Republicans are like, See, this is what happens. What? That we actually catch criminals. Now that biden's in power, this is idiotic. Of course they're doing it right before the election because immigration, the border is the number three issue that voters say they care about. Crime is number two. And this fits both descriptions, right? You get to trash Biden for something that's not even true, cuz you know your idiot base is gonna believe it.
