Scathing details reveal why Biden appears 'silent' on China's role in fentanyl crisis: book
Fox News
Peter Schweizer's new book "Blood Money: Why the Powerful Turn a Blind Eye While China Kills Americans" alleges that the Biden admin’s “silence" on the fentanyl crisis is due to Chinese connections.
Brianna Herlihy is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
In one chapter of the book, which was reviewed by Fox News Digital, Schweizer says the Biden administration has not taken "aggressive action" against China combating the fentanyl crisis, which the administration has previously said "bears responsibility."
"Joe Biden was outspoken in 1992 when it was exposed that Beijing was involved with the heroin trade. The then senator from Delaware showed initiative in calling out the Communist leadership for its illicit activities," Schweizer writes. "But now with the far more deadly fentanyl crisis, he has grown silent."
