I personally don’t want my hard earned tax money to be used to enable some dumbass cleutus’s in rural Tennessee’s fentanyl addiction.

Mostly white people are addicted to fentanyl? News to me.

You keep having an argument that has nothing to do with fentanyl. You're so ****ing focused on R vs D that you can just accept a simple undeniable fact. So much so that you're making MAGA arguments in a way that makes no sense. I get that you're basically trying to make the point that MAGA doesn't really care about fentanyl. Good for them. I do because I've known people who died because of it. So you're snarky little display of pseudo-MAGA POV is annoying and just plain dumb.

People who make bad choices, why should they deserve my handouts? And why is this tied to immigration? Maybe we need to just imprison a whole bunch of ruralists/fentanyl drug addicts?

I just want to make sure I’m not enabling another welfare queen from rural Tennessee. It’s crazy how I’ve lived 40 years and have never been tempted to take drugs. Probably because I knew they weren’t good. Why are so many Americans making such poor choices. Maybe we should deport these folks to El Salvador?

Oh, you think that white people are the only people dying from fentanyl and therefore it's not a problem.
A. Gross take. All lives matter including white ones.
B. You are incorrect that only white people are dying from fentanyl.

I didn’t say they’re the only ones but historically speaking, they’re the demo that has become addicted to it the most.

My point is 2 folded:

1. The way we frame drug addiction is so hypocritical. When talking about crack? It was framed by both politicians and the media as a failure of black communities. Celebrities like Bill Cosby, spoke out to shame their own people. Government intervention was seen as enabling (and still is) unless that government intervention was law enforcement and prison. In that case, government intervention was welcomed.

Yet with opioids, it’s the opposite. It’s a systemic problem, not a moral failure, that must be addressed by the government.

So which is it? Let’s pick a lane and stick with it. Is drug addiction the result of systemic failures that requires government intervention to correct, such as opioid addiction? Or is it the result of moral failures within the demographic in which case the addictions are the natural consequences of immorality?

2. Drug addiction needs to be decoupled from any talk about immigration or “dUh BoRdEr.” It’s clear that supply will follow demand no matter if we place crocs with lasers on their heads at every mile marker along every border. Therefore, talking about fentanyl along with immigration makes about as much sense as talking about cooper Flagg and Russia invading Ukraine; they’re two completely different issues.

Lastly, I think most Of you know where I stand regarding a robust social service net. But if we want to have a government that can aid with drug addiction, then we certainly can no longer empower dotards like Trump and Musk and RFK. These people aren’t serious about solving any problems, especially those complicated like drug addiction.

Btw, Trump’s Supreme Court ****ed over addicts by helping out Purdue Pharma last year. Again, we need to have memories longer than goldfish. This was the company that knew it was killing off Americans with its product. But they didn’t give a **** cuz it was so lucrative. And buying off Trump and the Supreme Court was so easy. So they got off, thanks to stupid people voting for Trump. It’s ironic, because how many of those impacted by drug addiction voted to empower Trump and this Supreme Court because they wanted a tighter border against drugs?

Supreme Court Overrules Purdue Pharma Opioid Settlement, Rejects Immunity for Sacklers

The U.S. Supreme Court has overturned the Purdue Pharma bankruptcy settlement that would have shielded the Sackler family from lawsuits over their involvement in the ongoing opioid crisis. With the agreement struck down, state and local governments that were slated to receive settlement money...

What? Haha place me on ignore then. Seems like an odd response to my post. Maybe this highlights our age difference? Throughout the 80s and 90s, it was pretty damn common to hear about “crack babies” and see celebrities like Bill Cosby beat up their own communities for their perceived moral failures. This actually contributed to Rush Limbaugh and Fox News and worldview we see today. When they talk about drug addicted communities, rarely are they talking about rural America. They’re talking about black inner cities where their moral failings are obvious and scary and must be avoided by any true freedom loving patriotic and virtuous true American living in the rural areas and burbs. In reality, we know drug addiction can be everywhere. What I’m mocking is the framing of the two. Crack and the inner cities? Scary brown black immigrants moral failings while rural (white areas) poor unfortunate souls who need help.

I wish we would see drug addiction as something that needs to be addressed by government in a fair, competent, and equitable manner. NOT as a cudgel to dehumanize minorities or demonize the border or immigrants. See the difference?

If Americans are serious about drug addiction, why vote for republicans? They’ve shown zero care about bolstering the social safety net (the opposite actually, DODGE has cut programs) and have sought to help out evil companies like Purdue Pharma, who knew their product was killing off people. If Americans are serious about drug addiction, why mix it with immigration or the border? Why do we have a double standard when talking about crack epidemics (moral failings, lock em up) vs opioids (aww poor forgotten man people who just need government help)?

Again, I think my stance on bolstering the social safety net is clear. But let’s apply it consistently to all drug addiction (all lives matter!). And let’s empower leaders who actually care about helping those addicted to drugs. Let’s stop empowering those who are merely using drug addiction as a cudgel to beat up Hispanics or impose white nationalism onto the country.

One of the great mysteries of history, lol. I’m sure some see the con, but it’s not going to affect their support.

What leaves me slack jawed, right from the start of his political career, was his MO of actually talking his reality into existence. And it has worked. I know he didn’t win in 2020. I know the stock market is Trump’s stock market. But it’s more than just “repeat a lie often enough”, although it’s also that. What’s unique, in my experience, is it’s a non stop effort to shape reality. Is this what post truth looks like? It becomes irrelevant if a statement is the truth or a transparent obvious lie? It just doesn’t matter. I mean we’ve had the Washington Post keep track of the count, the number of lies, off the charts obviously, and still the press just talks to him like this is normal. So, this is how a dictator comes to power? Not by the sword but the mighty tongue of bull****?

You are projecting what you think people think onto people.
Hard, addictive, destructive drugs are bad. Doesn't matter if it's fentanyl, crack, PCP, or whatever. Most people think this. Most people don't make it a black or white issue. If there is less fentanyl then that's a good thing for everyone regardless of who takes credit for the decrease or how the decrease of achieved.

I disagree that supply will follow demand for certain. Demand is driven highly by the supply/addiction.

If someone is addicted to fentanyl but can not get fetanyl then in time the addiction subsides as does the demand.
 
Good news everyone. Here is a news source of what is actually happening in the Trump admin. None of the spin your yahoo, MSNBC, NY times sources put on it.

No Wonder Why the Liberal Media Thinks Trump's First 100 Days Are a Disaster

It’s no mystery why the media is out with their latest psyop about President Donald Trump’s first 10
townhall.com townhall.com

It’s no mystery why the media is out with their latest psyop about President Donald Trump’s first 100 days. They’re calling it a disaster of historic proportions or something. It’s another moment for the legacy media to debase and humiliate themselves, providing another window for more Americans to flock to alternate information ecosystems. When you boil down why the press is so mad, it’s simple: Trump is doing the opposite of what Biden would have done.

  • Hyundai announced a $20 billion investment in the U.S., which will create 14,000 new jobs. The investment includes $5.8 billion for a new steel plant in Louisiana, which will create nearly 1,500 jobs.
  • TSMC announced an unprecedented $100 billion investment in U.S.-based semiconductor chip manufacturing.
  • Apple announced a historic $500 billion investment that will create 20,000 new U.S.-based jobs.
  • CMA CGM announced a $20 billion investment in U.S. shipbuilding and logistics, which will create 10,000 new jobs.
  • Eli Lilly and Company announced a $27 billion investment in its U.S.-based manufacturing.
  • Wisconsin-based Clarios, a leader in low-voltage energy storage, announced a $6 billion plan to expand its U.S.-based manufacturing
  • After meeting with President Trump, car maker Stellantis announced it will reopen its assembly plant in Belvidere, Illinois — putting 1,500 employees back to work — and build its next-generation Dodge Durango in Detroit, Michigan.
Yet, I think the immigration overhaul is the most satisfying accomplishment after four years of sustained invasion. The border wall has resumed construction. Welfare for illegals is ending, and the cockamamie game known as ‘catch-and-release’ is over:

  1. Reduced Illegal Border Crossings by over 95%.
  2. 99% increase in arrests of criminal aliens.
  3. 137% increase in arrests in the interior of the country.
ICE arrested 370+ illegal immigrants as part of a major operation in Massachusetts — many of whom have serious criminal convictions and charges, including murder, child rape, fentanyl trafficking, and armed robbery.

ICE arrested 32,809 illegal immigrants — nearly 75% of whom were accused or convicted criminals — virtually the same number of arrests over the entirety of Biden’s final year in office.
  • Los Angeles Times: “California-Mexico border, once overwhelmed, now nearly empty”
  • Bloomberg: “US-Bound Migration Plunges 99% Along Panama Jungle Route”
  • Illegal border crossings have declined to the lowest level ever recorded — down 94% from last February and down 96% from the all-time high of the Biden Administration. In one sector, illegal border crossings are down 99% over 2023.
  • Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin: “If Fox were to send me down there right now, I would have trouble finding a single migrant on camera.”
  • CBS immigration reporter Camilo Montoya-Galvez: “Typically, when we go to the U.S./Mexico border, we at least see one group of people who are trying to cross into the U.S. illegally. We did not see a single migrant.”
Egg prices are down, illegal aliens can no longer receive mortgages, and let’s not forget the great work the Department of Government Efficiency is doing auditing the government’s finances, uncovering a sordid web of wasteful spending and pork projects whose sole purpose was to enrich the political elite and their allies. It’s why the reaction to USAID’s extreme overhaul was met with such fury from the DC cabal. No one cared—there’s a reason for that:

Wholesale egg prices continued to drop, falling to an average price of $3 per dozen — or nearly 60% since January amid the Trump Administration’s efforts to combat the avian bird flu and repopulate the chicken supply.

[…]

$150 billion in DOGE savings … President Trump and DOGE stopped the waste, fraud, and abuse happening within USAID — ensuring taxpayers are no longer on the hook for funding pet projects of entrenched bureaucrats, such as:
  • $10,000 to the “Bearded Ladies Cabaret”
  • $168,000 for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit
  • $2M for sex change operations in Guatemala
  • $20M for Sesame Street in Iraq
  • The Department of Labor canceled nearly $600 million in “America Last” grants, including millions for “gender equity in the Mexican workplace” and “assisting foreign migrant workers” in Malaysia.

  • President Trump secured the safe return of NASA astronauts who were stranded in space for nine months by the previous administration.
  • The Department of Justice seized hundreds of thousands of dollars of cryptocurrency intended to support Hamas and other terrorist organizations.
  • President Trump signed an executive order to crack down on price gouging and ticket scalping in the entertainment industry.
  • Signed Laken Riley Act, requiring ICE to detain illegals who committed theft or violence.
  • Only two options for biological sex on US passports.
  • The Department of Homeland Security unveiled the CBP Home App, which repurposes the Biden-era CBP One App to give illegal immigrants the option of self-deporting.
  • Ordered government workers back to the office for 5 days a week.
  • President Trump instructed the Secretary of the Treasury to stop production of the penny, which costs 3.69 cents to make.
  • Following a meeting with President Trump, the United Arab Emirates committed to a $1.4 trillion U.S. investment framework over the next decade.
  • Secured more than $1.5 trillion in foreign investment commitments. That’s $3,000 per American.
  • Food stamps not allowed for junk food The Department of Health and Human Services announced states can bar welfare recipients from using taxpayer dollars to purchase unhealthy soft drinks.

It's easy to see why the media views this as a chaotic mess. It’s everything that’s not ‘woke’ or left-wing garbage -- policies that enhance public safety, grow the economy, expand freedom, and return common sense to society. We no longer have COVID vaccine or mask mandates in schools.

It’s a battle between normalcy and the lizard people. And most voters support Trump’s policies. That’s a fact. Sorry, who would be against seizing the funds of terrorists? Oh, sorry, I forgot about the Ivy League; the people who work and attend school there might be upset about something like that.

The ‘media is anti Trump’ ******** is another one. Give me a ****ing break, the media made Trump, they are the ones who normalized him. Media completely betrayed the American people by going for clicks and drama instead of actually calling Trump what he is or not allowing him to lie constantly with no recourse. The fact that his sycophants actually believe that he is treated unfairly by the media instead of with the absolute softest kid gloves possible is another baffling thing these idiots just eat up.
