Biden must be held accountable for enabling operations of the drug cartels and the resulting deaths.

Biden's open border policy is killing Americans.

Happy Birthday, Melania!

Happy Birthday to former First Lady, Mrs. @MELANIATRUMP! She deserves far more credit than she gets for all of her historical renovations & additions to the preservation of the White House & for her commitment to #opioid abuse awareness & helping America’s children via #BeBest! pic.twitter.com/tYUxMDI98m

Big Pharma Executives and 'Pillbillies'

The opioid crisis hit rural America the hardest. The indifference to life by these companies shocks the conscience. https://t.co/q2AMlGFA0Y

Disgusting.

Melania Trump Booed at Baltimore Event

This is disgraceful.

From Breitbart:

First Lady Melania Trump was met with boos from Baltimore high school students ahead of her planned speech addressing the nation’s opioid crisis on Tuesday.

The incident occurred as the first lady was announced on to the stage for B’More Youth Summit at the University of Maryland’s Baltimore County Event Center.

The event was organized as part of Trump’s “Be Best” campaign, which focuses on online safety and opioid abuse, and was co-sponsored by the Mark Wahlberg Youth Foundation and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).

Wow.

The behavior of these Baltimore students is off the charts terrible. Absolutely despicable.

What did Melania Trump do to them?

Where were the adults to reprimand these boors for their horrible behavior?

I'm angry about this.

Booing our First Lady insults all Americans, or at least half of us.

I'm glad Eric Bolling followed the thug and confronted him.

We must call out evil when we see it.

Opioid Crisis

Perspective | The other opioid crisis: pain patients who can’t access the medicine they need https://t.co/iPu0yr3RHf

— Washington Post (@washingtonpost) March 12, 2018

So many people are suffering needlessly.

It's wrong for pain patients to be penalized like this.

There's medication that can help, but they can't get it.

That's a crisis, too.

Tom Petty - Accidental Drug Overdose

This is heartbreaking.

A statement from the Petty Family is available at https://t.co/dUQukjayNE pic.twitter.com/L9HNJP3dIW

Our family sat together this morning with the Medical Examiner – Coroner’s office and we were informed of their final analysis that Tom Petty passed away due to an accidental drug overdose as a result of taking a variety of medications.

Unfortunately Tom’s body suffered from many serious ailments including emphysema, knee problems and most significantly a fractured hip.

Despite this painful injury he insisted on keeping his commitment to his fans and he toured for 53 dates with a fractured hip and, as he did, it worsened to a more serious injury.

On the day he died he was informed his hip had graduated to a full on break and it is our feeling that the pain was simply unbearable and was the cause for his over use of medication.

We knew before the report was shared with us that he was prescribed various pain medications for a multitude of issues including Fentanyl patches and we feel confident that this was, as the coroner found, an unfortunate accident.

As a family we recognize this report may spark a further discussion on the opioid crisis and we feel that it is a healthy and necessary discussion and we hope in some way this report can save lives. Many people who overdose begin with a legitimate injury or simply do not understand the potency and deadly nature of these medications.

On a positive note we now know for certain he went painlessly and beautifully exhausted after doing what he loved the most, for one last time, performing live with his unmatchable rock band for his loyal fans on the biggest tour of his 40 plus year career. He was extremely proud of that achievement in the days before he passed.

We continue to mourn with you and marvel at Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers incredible positive impact on music and the world. And we thank you all for your love and support over the last months.

Thank you also for respecting the memory of a man who was truly great during his time on this planet both publicly and privately.

We would be grateful if you could respect the privacy of the entire Heartbreaker family during this difficult time.

Dana Petty and Adria Petty
