Leavitt: Tomorrow, the President will be implementing a 25% tariff on Mexico, a 25% tariff on Canada, a 10% tariff on China for the illegal fentanyl they have sourced and allowed to distribute into our country that has killed tens of millions of Americans.

I can’t believe even his followers would fall for that one. 🤦♂️
Even if he says a billion Americans have died, trust and obey.
There is a good headline.
It never mattered what Biden did... it will be all gone... His time would have been better spent taking Trump down and protecting America. He was too busy overachieving!!!
They are once again lying through their teeth in an attempt to justify their insanity.

From the time of Nancy Reagan "say no to drugs" campaign to today the market for illicit drugs in the USA remains.

He is a Fool!
And when you have alienated most of the rest of humanity that does not already detest you, I do hope you can look back with great satisfaction on what you have achieved.
She’s going to keep lying about everything

I think it’s around 1M
I question her basic math comprehension.

They are fucking stupid and dangerous!
I mean if you start with a lie….
People say Vance is just as bad, and yes, some of his ideas are, if anything, even crazier. BUT…he can't hold the GOP together. They'll split along the fault lines—unable to pass anything, and the WH advisers will go back to squabbling.
Deaths caused by fentanyl WILDLY overstated.
Trump is very efficiently fucking EVERYTHING up, all at once, and his idiot voters can’t tell the difference.
Thats the government’s own data.
Fucking idiots 😆😆😆
They’re con men.
Maybe Canada and Mexico should implement export tariffs to the USA for the guns they’ve allowed to cross our borders.
But this is also why countries are starting to make deals without the US. No one needs America.
Here’s hoping I’m wrong.
One question.
Why aren't U.S. border guards siezing it???
Could it be the very stress inducing environment that they live in, where money is more important than living a decent Life!
The first you already live. The second is where you work so that you can live your life decently. Where the time you work allows you time to really live your life, with holidays that are decent.
He can't even get basic cover facts correct
Not even making an effort to cover up Putin's directions

This is a "distraction" in the same way that being run through with a sword would be a "distraction."
There’s a Fox entertainer in charge of our transportation dept and our defense department.
What could possibly go wrong? 🤷🏻♀️

What is their obsession with fentanyl ?
This is about making Canada America's Belarus.
True North, Strong And Free.
We didn't do jack
It makes him feel powerful when we gotta grovel
He's a POS
To answer your question: tariffs are against select legally imported goods (citizens pay for tariff) & that's supposed to pressure CA/MX/CHN address the illegal activities on their end (like they aren't already)
I don't think so.
These are lies from Trump, just like when he claims that the U.S. subsidizes Canada despite the fact that it's simply a question of trade balance: this is propaganda to eventually "justify" an armed invasion of my country. Mark my words.
"Trump Calls Canada a Big Player in the Fentanyl Trade. Is It?
President Trump has threatened to impose tariffs on Canada over drug trafficking, equating it with Mexico. U.S. government reports do not support the claim."

I'm a proud Canadian and I love my country.
Scarramucci, anyone?
The media never pushes back on the lie that immigrants are responsible.
How does customs know what to do when there is chaos?
P.s. The lies this administration makes are astronomical and will have disastrous impact.
Then if it doesn't move the Hippopotus, then 25% on exported electricity from Ontario, Quebec and NewFoundland.
And make it unstable also.
You can bet he wouldn't apply his stupid tariffs to energy imports.
But WE can raise the price consequently.
And that pronunciation drives me crazy too. But that's how everybody says it – news reporters, commentators, the people being interviewed about it, pretty much anyone who says the word. I wonder if it's bleeding over from alcohOL, or the many other drugs ending in OL (or both).
While no number is good, tens of millions isn’t even a decent guess. It’s careless to just Sean Spicer your way through facts.
Here are the numbers from 2003-2023.
The number of overdose deaths decreased for the first time in 2023.

Anyone?
I don't know anybody killed by fentanyl specifically.
All the drug users I know it's either meth or weed.
They will never lose a grift opportunity
BRICS is an intergovernmental organization consisting of ten countries—Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran and the United Arab Emirates. ...
Sooner rather than later, Trump will be unalived by his own supporters , or, a bounty will be put on his head by other countries…
So I am going to say they are exaggerating the numbers a bit, if over 50+ years, there aren’t even 10 million deaths-let alone “tens of millions.”

I don't think this has anything to do with our border but breaking us economically. We will not bend we will fight back.
Their approach is not only revolting but has led to rethink my values.
It's time to take the hit and cut the cord.
We can leave the americans to their racist, fascist and disgusting values.
