Egg interceptions up 116% so far this year, while seizures of fentanyl down 32%
When you’re looking for fentanyl but all you find is EGGS!
Gotta stop them poachers, I reckon.
I honestly don’t understand the focus on eggs. It makes even less sense than toilet paper during COVID.
Look, I get that for some people eggs are a cheap source of protein. But you don’t need eggs, and the cheapness also limits the possibility for profeteering.
So you smuggle some eggs across the boarder and sell them for double. How much have you actually made? I don’t see the reward outweighing the risk here.
I was curious about that, and found this article:

Yet more proof that we are living in Bizarro World. Imagine travelling ten years back in time and trying to convince people this would happen.
God forbid eggs get across the border. So glad Trump is stopping these monsters
Carney can tell Trump he wants boarder guards watching the boarder to prevent the theft of eggs!
