Exactly - funny how all their good ideas are stolen from those they oppose...then they steal the ideas and put on a show to pretend they care for the safety of their subjects.

Um, maybe he could TIGHTEN UP THE BORDER?


Exactly what I was thinking. Sanctions on China prior to negotiations, but don’t close the rat-line of importation. Just another “shiny object” for the pleebs to fixate on. I hate these people, really.

That is a crazy amount of the drug.

If Chinese companies refuse to cooperate with our efforts to deal with this situation, if they are non-compliant to reasonable requests, then by all means, sanction the heck out of them.

The Democrats don’t want the president to have any foreign policy success, regardless of the cost. Their hate of the president is beyond sanity. Schumer is okay with drugs from Mexico.

Feds have STOCK PILES of all the Potent Pain meds. Incase of War.

Big issue with Fen is it enhances the effects of Meth, Coke, Heroin or any other Illicit drug it’s added to.

It affects those with Heart conditions the hardest. My Cardio has Blacklisted it and Morphine for his patients. Dilaudid is his preferred pain med if it’s needed.

What they don’t want is a Intractable Pain Patient to know Oxycontin or Oxycodone is safe and effective. IP Is a MEDICAL DISEASE, Failure to treat it is Medical Malpractice.

The other reason is government wants to promote MMJ and tax the H out of it, and your Ins isn’t going to pay for it.

These drug problems go back to the Physicians AND the government's lax policy allowing these drugs into the mainstream as if they were aspirin.

Same thing with e cigarettes.

We got China to label fentanyl— as a controlled substance, and NOW Schmuckie wants to rub their nose in their own internal and external export illegal production distribution?

Schmuckie is IN the illegal drug trade—there can be NO other explanation than the kind of money the chi-com gangsters he and DiFi are partnered with, can make distributing illegal fentanyl over the Mexican border to the US. And it is also WHY he and Pelosi and all the leftie demonrats do not want a Wall.... It is their MEALTICKET, for the donations and cash flow to their party and their own offices. Criminal behaviour.

So, just HOW does illegal chinee fentanyl make it to Mexico in the FIRST place? What port? Does it come through the Panama Canal (since Hutchison-Whampoa controls both ends— a chi-com front company, that also controls container ship ports there as well as in the Bahamas (in Nassau to be exact)?

Build the Wall.

Well, it would be true McConnell could stop it— if it was in HIS interests (which are seriously linked through his wife, Elaine Chao’s fathers container shipping company, which has had new ships built BY THE CHI-Coms).

McConnell, being from the fentayl epidemic opiod capital state of the US— Kentucky— OUGHT to stop Schumer’s “bill” by simply saying “you are screwing with Foreign Policy that is to prevent the importation of a National Emergency terrorist weapon of mass destruction—hundreds of which pounds have been seized, that, if they were to be released in our water supplies would kill millions of Americans. Millions. Aside from fentanyl’s primary use— to cut the strength of imported heroin, with a synthetic heroin like compound, this fentanyl and derivative designs can, under cover of illegal dope shipments actually be brought into the US as a WEAPON.

So, it IS a National Emergency. And, from schmuckies little “bill” it is evident they will not come to agreement on the Wall. GAME ON!!

“”Chuckie doing his little part to blow up China trade talks. Pitiful.””

Can’t you just see the smirky one sitting and pondering just what he could do to mess this up for the president and then having an Ah! Ha! moment - I GOT IT!!!

“”would direct U.S. officials to publicly identify foreign opioid traffickers “”

No, Chuckie - they are keeping THOSE NAMES secret from you and the rest of the demon-rats! Is he kidding? Time for him to be sent out to pasture - preferably in some other country!

Schumer needs to be Drug Tested

The Chemicals needed to make this crap appear to be widely available:

https://www.therecoveryvillage.com/fentanyl-addiction/related-topics/what-is-fentanyl-made-of/

So what is fentanyl made of? Essentially, chemicals.

The chemical name for fentanyl is N-phenyl-N propenamide. It was synthesized originally following a four-step process that included condensing N-benzyl-4-piperidone and reducing it with LAH, and the final step included performing the Finkelstein reaction.

While fentanyl is synthetic, it is synthesized from the opium poppy, which is why opioids all have similar effects and characteristic
