He is, the hand of God protected our next president last Saturday. It was nothing short of a miracle, Devine Intervention even. May he continue protecting President to be Donald Trump, as there is so much work to be done to restore this once great nation.
God Bless this woman Weston will be sorely missed🙏🏻😰🇺🇸
My heart breaks for this mother.
God Bless and hold this mom and her family!
Strong lady. Thank you for standing up n telling your story on behalf 100s of thousands. This madness has to stop. I will remember Weston.
In addition to sharing her heartfelt personal tragedy; the observation that the drug cartels are actually terrorist organizations is spot on. Thank you Ms. Funder for your remarkable and important comments.
And this adminstration has made money too
The people opening the border just don't care!!!!
God bless this brave woman!!!!
Joe doesn't care about anything but money
And power
Power too
@@davidosborn146 list the merchandise President Biden is selling to raise money.
if its bidens fault then this mother is a horrible mother and its her fault her sons dead. theres obviously issues in how he was raised
Joe doesn’t know ! The Current Administration that’s playing Joe doesn’t care !
There are far too many of us with this story . I lost my big brother 3 years ago AND I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME.
I lost my son to fentanyl, that pain will never go away, but I applaud her for her courage to speak the truth and to tell the heartbreaking story of WESTON. I’m sure many prayers went up for her family tonight.
Too many freaking comments like this!! I’m so so sorry. My brother is in Heaven and I hurt so much I cannot imagine your heartbreak. I look at my son and know one bad choice and I could be in your shoes. I pray God can help ease your grief. ❤
@@barbaramahan1589 you know how many lives were lost due to synthetic opioids when Trump was in office?
users use for a reason, home life issues etc and itr was your kids choice to use. blaming someone that isnt part of his life is called blame bc youre a bad parent.
I am so so sorry for your lost R.I.P
This mom has so much courage.. TO WESTON’S MOM .. You are a beautiful person and I believe WESTON heard every word you said as he stood right next to you on that stage😇🩵🤍 I’m so sorry for your loss💔
These people cry with her because most of us have lost someone to the drug crisis.
And the democrat cities give them the suppliea to do it in the name of compassion.
What a powerful heartfelt speech
Amen to that sister these borders should have never been opened heart goes out to you
Republican led congress has had 3.6 yrs to close the border,don't blame Joe for GOP incompetence. Congress controls the border,or are you just dense
@@lauraluffman6177 do you know how many lives were lost due to overdoses when Trump was in office?
@@lauraluffman6177 Between 2016 and 2020, annual drug overdose deaths from synthetic opioids (excluding methadone) increased by 192% (from 19,500 to 56,894), according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC data also show:
- The average annual growth rate of drug overdose deaths from synthetic opioids was 31% while Donald Trump was president.
- Between 2019 and 2020, the last year of Trump’s presidency, the increase in drug overdose deaths from synthetic opioids was 55%.
Sincere condolences to this woman and her family. May God bless.
What an incredible human being this woman is ❤
This is what happens when people vote against a President and not for a President .
Not sure I get your comment
Let me explain. If you voted for Biden just because you hated Trump. Get it now.
@@lindabell125those 81,000,000 votes should have went to a real president instead of the one we got stuck with l get it🙈🇺🇸
Good point, this is exactly what happened and is still happening. The degree of hatred in America for a one person is disgusting!!
How true 😢
So heartbreaking 💔
This was heartbreaking! Prayers to the Family.
And I always hear people say “not my kid” well it is our kids.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Too many of us share your forever pain😢
I cried with her.
Very brave woman.. ❤
Jesus the Risen Savior bring Your Holy Angels to comfort this wonderful mother. Amen 🙏✝️♥️
😢😢😢 heartbreaking
Biden is 100% RESPONSIBLE !!!
Don't forget Obama, Pelosi, and Maxine Waters who all called for violence against us. Jesus help us.
Amazing Americans!
God be close to this woman and her family, in Jesus name Amen
Sooooooo very well said Lady!!!!!
I feel your loss sorry ❤
My heart went out to her and her family. I lost my daughter to fentanyl poisoning. I understand. 💔😢
So sorry, may God give you peace🇺🇸❤️
@@sylviag3576 thank you
Teach your kids to stay away from drugs.
She's upset because she knows she failed as a mother.
May God bless these families that have lost loved one from the drugs coming through our open borders
Think about all the time and care you put in to raising your children. To lose it all
I pray i never have to feel that pain. I am so heartbroken for you and your family. I can't begin to imagine your pain. No parent should ever have to say goodbye to thier child for the last time 😢
Lost my son in law to fentanyl. This year Feb 14 2024. Valentines Day
My deepest condolences. Be strong!
I'm so very sorry. 😢
It was very devastating for my daughter and her kids. He was 41 years old. He worked in the Icu Unit at the hospital as a nurse. I'll never understand why they tamper in this stuff. You think it will never happen to your family. He didn't get from the hospital I don't think. Toxicology report said it was laced with something else besides Fentanyl.I probably don't want to know what it was. This has over taken America. Killed so many. Sad day it was
My daughter and her kids were devastated. He was 41 years old. He work at the hospital as a Icu nurse. Toxicology report said he taken something laced with Fentanyl. Don't know what the other something was. I don't believe from the hospital. I'll never understand why people tamper in this stuff. It's taken over America. You never think it will happen to your family. Sad day it was
Where did his drugs come from?
I don’t think there’s a mother out there that didn’t want to cry with this poor mom-heartbreaking.
Everyday Don Jr goes on TV in a coked up haze. He can’t save his own kid.
“ I ALSO HAVE A SON” THAT IS 34 OF AGE, THAT WOULD BE MY WORST NIGHTMARE TO LOSE MY SON IN THAT WAY. I BLAME BIDEN AND KAMALA ALSO! 😡😡👎🏻👎🏻

Thank you for sharing ! 🙏
Heart felt sorrow…😢
Sorry for your family 😢 it never gets better 😢😢😢😢😢❤ my heart goes out to you ❤
Hit the like...didn't seam right.
Sorry for your loss. A parent should outlive their child. You're a brave strong woman to tell your story in front of that crowd.
They should be legally responsible. Sorry.😢
Hitting the like will help share this lady's story and others like her.
You aren’t liking the death you are liking the woman strength for sharing the story and trying to spread awareness.
G-d bless America and maybe Weston Rest in peace. You are a brave man. All the love and prayers go out to you and yours.
Sorry for this mom, family and friends. Tragic
RIP sweet boy 😔
Anti-Trumpers are already insulting this woman in disgusting ways. We are fighting against people who are incapable of shame.
The people standing up for her.
😭. My sincere condolences to this lovely woman and her family.
🤔?? I’m so sorry for her loss. When we look at states like Ohio, understand that the issue of substance use is much deeper than the border 🤷🏽♀️
Yes, I don’t understand blaming it on the president. Drugs get here no matter what president.
Wow...i had missed this. My heart breaks for her 💔...close & secure our borders NOW!
So very sorry.
I am sooo sorry!! A brave courageous lady to get out and tell her story.God bless u !!❤
Amen!
So sad
Biden is responsible
So no drugs came over with Trump as president? Biden forces people to take drugs?
You are beautiful strong very woman and my condolences to you and your family
Brave woman
God bless this lady and her son may he rest in peace... IJNIPAMEN
God bless this precious mom of Weston. God give her and her family strength and peace.
Her speech brought tears to my eyes
Powerful
Heartbreaking
I don’t want to hear this, I am so sorry. We all have to hear this.
Growing up we would hear the song “God Bless America” that song is never heard anymore going back many years!
Wow she delivered one of the most powerful story ive ever heard...
Bless this Woman 🙏🙏🙏
Wow
Very well said🙌🙌🙏
God Bless you young lady
My heart goes out to her for her loss, however how can you blame someone else for a decision your son made to try drugs!!!!!!!!!
My thoughts exactly. Al anon teaches the 3 C's..... Hope this mom seeks the support needed. She can't go around blaming others for her sons choices. Drugs are everywhere...... borders open or closed
I am starting to see many stories of young people dying from Fentanyl poisoning. It's being put in pills and patches, and these people don't have any idea about how lethal this drug can be. I'm imploring people not to take a pill that has not been prescribed to you or purchased in a store. My condolences, mother, on the loss of your wonderful son, Weston.
I hope very mother hears this story and votes to save their son or daughters life. Every child should be given the chance to grow up in America without the threat of drugs.
My heart breaks for this mother, for her family. GOD give her heart some peace ❤
Yes , I hear all that she said.❤
As a mother of 5 my heart goes out to you and your family. I am crying with you MaMa. I whole heartedly send my condolences to your family... especially your son's father. To lose a son/child is one of the most tragically devastating experiences a family can go through. GOD BLESS...
My heart bleeds with you.
God help America
God bless her and her family.
Amen 🙏
Has anyone ever realized this. They banned cigarette and tobacco ads from television. But, alcohol and pharmaceutical ads are all over the place. Tv, movies, billboards, ect. The the have addiction ads for those suffering from alcohol and drug abuse. This has become a country of pills and booze. The ads need to stop. We need to look out for one another and our countries youth.
joe has been a disaster
Joe you did this
So sad. You’re a strong MOM.
Sorry for your loss 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️
