Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., has been deployed to the southern border as a member of the Air National Guard four times now, and says he's never seen more drug smuggling and human trafficking than he did on his most recent deployment this month.
There were a lot more drugs. Youd see people drop bundles, the Illinois Republican told the Washington Examiner. He was referring to large bags of narcotics that had been carried from Mexico and dropped from planes flying over Arizona or by groups on foot for the next smuggler to move further north.
Kinzinger, a lieutenant colonel with the Wisconsin National Guard, said even though large groups of families and children have been arriving in recent months, he observed more people who were trying to avoid detection.

He also said the people they encountered were not families or groups of minors seeking out agents most were actively avoiding being caught. Many wore camouflage-print clothing from head to toe and even tied pieces of carpet to the bottoms of their shoes to avoid leaving tracks in the sand.
Thanks for posting. Are his democrat colleagues calling him a liar?
We didn’t shoot down the first planes to drop drugs, so the “war on drugs” never started.
