BEIJING — China announced on Monday that it would ban all variants of the powerful opioid fentanyl, a move that could slow the supply of a drug that in recent years has caused tens of thousands of overdose deaths in the United States.

By declaring that all varieties of fentanyl are now controlled substances, China made good on a pledge that the Chinese leader, Xi Jinping, made to President Trump late last year.

China’s export of the drug, which American officials say accounts for the vast majority of the fentanyl that ends up in the United States, has long been a source of tension in relations. More recently, it has also become tangled up in the continuing trade war.


damn trump and his ability to do good things for america. he deserves no credit for this whatsoever.

This is actually a huge concession from the Chinese and step forward. Trump deserves immense praise for getting this done.

Sad that you're forced to slam good news for America since your TDS has rendered you insane.

Thank God, the supplier is shutting down. This is good news for a change. Good on China's Jinping for living up to his pledge to Trump last year.

Now if we could only do something about all of the American doctors who prescribed the damn stuff in the first place. This whole epidemic was avoidable if the medical community hadn't had its head up its ass.

American doctors were prescribing heroin and counterfeit prescription drugs sold on the street?

Illicitly produced fentanyl is smuggled into the United States primarily from China by way of Mexico, according to the D.E.A. But it is also shipped directly to the United States from China, in smaller quantities. It used to be mostly sold mixed with heroin, but is increasingly showing up in counterfeit prescription pills and other drugs, though users often do not realize it.

How did the intense consumer demand for fentanyl originate?

It doesn't bother me to be called names. I'm aware that this is good for America, I just don't really give a shit. Trump nut huggers get so amped up about every little win that it's embarasing. The president is suposed to do things that are good for America. It shouldn't be news worthy.

Damn those commies for interfering with the free market.

Remember when @UCFWayne created a thread to celebrate the "win" (his words) that a report came out stating that Trump probably isn't a Russian spy.

That's how desperate these people are. "Probably not a Russian spy" = "winning"

Is that why we never heard about Obama doing anything good for America? He did so much and it wasn’t newsworthy so we never knew about it?

You’re confusing this with the meeting with North Korea

I’m sure that you’ll call that a failure too even though I can’t remember the last time a ballistic missile was fired. Do you have a graph for that one? There are a lot less variables, more reliability and it’s not as open to interpretation as your previous graphs

Lol this is great for the people of America and yet the liberals still whine like Little fuking bitches.

How predictable. Sorry excuses for Americans

It's fine. Y'all act like we just landed man on the moon anytime Trump shows up to do his job.

Been there done that. Mars is the new moon

Democrats want to take a trip to the sun

Trump tried to tell them that they would burn up if they went.

Nancy Pelosi called Trump an idiot. She told him that “they were planning on going at night.”
