stuff, we were talking about how bad it was. it takes forever for this stuff to reach him and then what are his solutions? they are all old solutions. spend more money. more drug sniffing dogs. you have to understand that fentanyl is tiny. it s not just about the border. you can have the tightest border and that stuff is still coming through. jesse: can dogs even smell fentanyl? is it effective? greg: there are these lies of omission. he has no plan for fentanyl. he has no plan for the border, no plan for crime so that s why he has to keep it down low. but then he talked about and this is the bigger lie about the declining inflation, gas prices dropping, job numbers increasing. all of these variables are improving from the damage during his two years. that s a deception. it s like a guy stealing your car and then the next day throwing you a hubcap.
off his lips. but at the same time he s not protecting the border by the way, one of the things we said about the border is that apparently since we launched our new border plan, unlawful migration from cuba, haiti, nicaragua has come down 97%. they said no, that s not the true number. he s just making these numbers up to sound like he s tough on the border. in the end, what he s got to do is do something effective. he s talking the talk. he doesn t walk the walk. jesse: it s a defensive position to say we re going to have higher drug sniffing dogs and do detention. you got to go into china and deep into mexico to stop it. dana: one of the things that has been a knock on president biden even at the beginning, the question pollsters ask, do you believe the president cares about issues that you cl care about. the answer is always no. there has never been a majority

well, alex, it s very hard to find drugs or illegal immigration when you re checking for tire pressure. so these additional inspections were conducted after u.s. customs and border patrol already did their drug sniffing dogs, their x-ray machines. these were nuisance inspections instituted to check for brake light problems, to make sure paperwork was in order. they did not have the jurisdiction to go into those trucks and really look at what was in them. so this really did engender the ire of a lot of texas and mexican business people, especially in the ephemeral world of produce, because days of sitting at the border meant a lot of produce was at risk of spoilage. i m going to get to that in just one second, but before i do, give me a sense of the economic impact of this eye-rolling policy on businesses
for driving in the left lane of the local interstate. not for speeding or texting on her phone or something that might have actually put herself and other drivers at risk. simply driving in the left lane. she was one of over 400 people the brookside p.d. ticketed for driving in the left lane between 2018 and 2020 according to al.com. if all this sounds like a police state nightmare, may i remind you that a riot-controlled tank, the s.w.a.t. training that brookside s officers have gone through and the not one, but two drug-sniffing dogs the department have but don t need don t pay for themselves. joining me now is carla crowder. she s the director of the alabama applecede center for law and justice. thanks for coming on the show tonight. in an interview with alabama.com, brookside police chief mike jones, who has run the department during this massive surge in police recruitment, he told the website about the money that they re making from ticketing people. quote, i see a 600% increase.
