Fentanyl Declared Weapon of Mass Destruction in US

USA – On Monday Dec. 15, Donald Trump signed an executive order designating fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction.

He signed the order during an Oval Office event decorating US military personnel involved in border security operations, warning that fentanyl poses a deadly threat to the country.

“No bomb does what this is doing,” Trump said, adding that “200,000 to 300,000 people die each year.”

“We took the worst border in the history of our country, and in a period of two months, we turned it into the strongest border in the history of our country,” he added.
