During the 'Everyday Americans' portion of tonight's RNC line up, American Mom Anne Funder told the story of losing her son to poisoning by fentanyl.
The raucous room was almost silent listening to Anne share her heart and her loss.
As the camera scanned the crowd, there was hardly a dry eye in the house as other parents felt her pain.
Close the border and protect America's children.
Anne did all the right things. She was involved in her child's school. She had the conversations about saying no to drugs. It was a one time terrible mistake and her son was dead.
I have chills watching this beautiful mom, Anne Fundner, who lost her sweet child to fentanyl, speak at the RNC.

The love and support from the audience, the standing ovation is wonderful.
Of course, there had to be some Democrats who stuck up for Biden and preferred to blame the victim rather than blame Joe for not securing this country for its youngest citizens.
Yeah, it’s unfortunate Anne Fundner’s son died, but when your kid is over the age of like 6 they need to take some responsibility for themselves to not do hard drugs. You can’t pin this on #Biden and Harris.

Here's an idea! Perhaps our leaders should enforce the laws and kids won't be exposed to dangerous substances seeping through the border.
Anne Fundner just gave a pretty amazing speech at the RNC

Fentanyl is not a blue or red issue, it’s a red white and blue issue.
It’s the number 1 killer of Americans between 18 and 45.
Why is Anne Fundner not accepting responsibility for her child’s death due to fentanyl-laced pills? Instead she rather blame others. She failed her child.🤷🏾♂️

Of course, like any Mother who loses her child too soon, she likely goes through all the 'what ifs' everyday. No mother can be with her child every second. We should be able to depend upon our elected officials to help keep our families safe. Biden and his Border Czar, Kamala, failed.
