If I'm ever in combat, I hope like hell the only things they drop on me is fentanyl.

I want the Epstein files released too but idk how I feel about this being posted on things like this since its setting up for an invasion of a sovereign country, likely to cause uncountable innocent deaths. Not to mention the fact that this also sets a pretext for our country being invaded as well (I see you're also a .ca'er)

So I guess that means hospitals cant use it anymore.
Sucks for everyone with a major injury.

So, can some folks here correct my ignorance. I was under the impression that most of the fentanyl entering the US is being manufactured in China. It doesn't sound crazy to me that this is some sort of conspiracy to weaken the American public.

I'm not sure why we can't just decriminalize drugs so folks and do heroin in peace. Or maybe fix some of the problems that are causing people to do drugs.

Ok but where exactly did you get that impression and what evidence have you seen to actually prove it? If we didn't want drugs in our country it would be easy to prevent, but we're busy using their presence as a justification for mass incarceration/slave labor and our foreign policy so it would be inconcenient for the supply to suddenly dry up. You should be extremely skeptical of anything US media says. The obvious answer to the second part is "money"

If this is a preamble to justify a new decade of carpet-bombing a third world country again: I sort of really hope it the final straw that finally gets NATO to intervene; treating the USA as a global threat. I know it's just a pipe dream, but I can dream nonetheless

Cutting USAID was a weapon of mass destruction. Estimated 500.000 to 1.000.000 deaths. Source

What kind of powers and exception to the "rules" does he get to target someone "shipping a WMD" not that he needs to really bother.

See what happens when you put past war criminal presidents on pedestals without any consequences?

Donnie wants that too.

Well done USA.
