I lost a brother to a #fentanyl overdose as well, 7 years ago. History will judge us very badly for treating drug addiction as a crime and not a sickness.

This new feature is months in the making, and it's just the beginning of our reporting on how these opioid settlement funds are flowing through cities and towns ...
#TRUMP ADDED 10% #TARIFFS ON ALL IMPORTED #FENTANYL?? #SAYS_IT_ALL!
IMMEDIATELY! | #KROGER THE #REAL_ANIMALS! YOU #KILL A #CHILD OR #HUMAN_BEING IT will #NOT be #BUSINESS_AS_USUAL IN 2023, 2024, 2025 >>..?
#BOYCOTT_KROGER: YOU ARE #GUILTY of Murder of a MINOR Child! We have been posting online PUBLICALLY 24/7 since 2015 about KROGER SPEARHEADING #OVERDOSE_EPIDEMIC!
#Kroger #Reaches Agreement in Principle?? for Nationwide #Opioid_Settlement | AKA #DRUG_DEALERS IN #WHITE_LAB_COATS?
BTW TALKING OUT OF BOTH SIDE OF YOUR FACES IS DIQUSTING -- Instead of OPENLY admitting your #wrong_doing you try to protect and defend your #GUILTY #DISGUSTING ASSES!
What about the #Mothers lives you have infected. Their morning is #UNENDING. The Mothers will never #heal from the sorrow of lost ones.
Paying out fines over 6-11 year of installments is like SPITTING IN THE MOTHERS FACE for their PRECIUOS losses!
YOU SHOULD ALL BE IN #PRISON FOR WHAT YOU HAVE #DONE!!
~This settlement is not an admission of wrongdoing or liability by Kroger and Kroger will continue to vigorously defend against any other claims and lawsuits relating to opioids that the final agreement does not resolve~
#OVERDOES GONE WILD !
HOW MANY OF THESE DEADLY #ADDICTIVE PILLS WERE DELIVERED TO PATIENT DOORS.. no less??
#DEATH FOR #PROFITS! BY #KROGER!
AKA #DRUG_DEALERS IN #WHITE_LAB_COATS
#Kroger has agreed to pay up to $1.2 billion to states and subdivisions and $36 million to #Native_American_tribes in #funding for #abatement_efforts (both to be paid over 11 years in equal installments), and approximately $177 million to cover attorneys' fees and costs (to be paid over 6 years in equal installments).
The timing of the settlement payments over multiple years, most of which are tax deductible, results in an after-tax net present value to Kroger of approximately $870 million. Initial payments would begin in December 2023.
Kroger expects to recognize a $1.4 billion CHARGED during the second quarter of 2023, which will #negatively impact #earnings per diluted share of $1.54 on a GAAP basis. This does not affect adjusted earnings per diluted share results for 2023, which are provided on a basis that excludes adjustment items.

Reading an article about a conservative Gen Z influencer who became far-right after someone "who appeared to be on fentanyl" punched him in the head. That guy is probably dead or dying, but this dude will only ever care about a bruise long gone.
NBC News reported a "dramatic plunge in #Fentanyl Deaths."
But before the #DonTheCon Administration starts taking bows, check the date span of that plunge: #ThankYouJoe #Biden
I was reading about Xi Jinping's life (eventful!) and thinking about Trump's life and I think I know who is going to win this....
The WH clarified that the 125% tariff rate on #China is in addition to Trump’s previous 20% tariff on China for its role in supplying #fentanyl & fentanyl precursors. So Trump has added #tariffs of 145% to China since coming into office.
This is on top of levies Trump put on China in his 1st term, which ranged up to 25% They also go on top of other tariffs the US has put on Chinese products for violating #trade rules, as well as Trump’s #tariffs on #steel, #aluminum & #cars.
"Additionally, all talks with China concerning their requested meetings with us will be terminated!"
Probably including any chance of China agreeing to clamp down on fentanyl precursor exports to the United States.
@randahl Surprise! he said literally that he set a tariff on import of #fentanyl #LoserTrump

Impeachment is STILL an option.
Maybe not over the tariffs [1] per se. But absolutely because the insane stink of this may be the smelling salts some GOP holdouts need to stop looking the other way on the felon's MANY impeachable crimes, not wanting the smell to rub off.
Plus the outcomes of the Wisconsin and Florida votes [2] could give them hope a primary threat can be beat. And they might FINALLY feel their greatest security is not as Friends of The Felon. Even though Dems lost the special elections, it was not by much. The GOP needs to read the room.
And the Dems need to throw them a lifeline if they try to act sanely. It would be terrible to lose democracy over a gripe about a few individuals who took way too long to see reason but finally did, and angry Dems thinking it was more important to see that injustice righted than Democracy saved. Politics is messy, and right now it matters to save the Constitution.
Well, not that I think impeaching the felon would put the Constitution in the clear. Vance is still a VERY dangerous guy [3] who wants an empire, not a republic. But one problem at a time.
It's really time for an impeachment.
Or even use of the 25th amendment, though on different grounds. The fact that he launched a trade war with penguins is one. [4] The biz about tariffs on smuggled fentanyl is another. [5]

“The president has justified the imposition of these #tariffs on, in my view, a made-up emergency,” said Senator Tim Kaine, Democrat of Virginia & the lead sponsor of the resolution. “The #fentanyl emergency is from #Mexico & #China. It’s not from #Canada.”
The resolution… seeks to revoke the emergency declaration &, with it, #Trump’s ability to enforce the tariffs set to go into effect on Wednesday.
Huh, looks like US #fentanyl deaths are way down bc of measures the Biden admin took. Wonder why #Trump is saying there’s an emergency and it’s #Canada ‘s fault?
