@sweetcarolinatv @StephenKing Fentanyl seizures from Canada are about 0.5 %. That is from us data. This is about NOTHING to do with fentanyl and everything about trying to seize Canadian resources and land.

@StephenKing So you are against helping to stop drug flow into the U.S.?

@SenatorCollins Hey Susan, could you ask your boss to stop threatening the sovereignty of Canada? Seems very dictator ish to me. We do NOT want to be part of the US. You are treating us like an enemy. Perhaps you should think back to Afghanistan where our troops died supporting you.

I am pleased that the Trump Administration is pausing the tariffs on Canada to evaluate the economic impact on both our nations.
In my many conversations with Administration officials over the weekend, I sought to make them aware of the potential costs of these tariffs. From home heating oil, gasoline, and petroleum products, to Maine’s paper mills, forest products businesses, and agricultural producers, the proposed tariffs on Canada would be detrimental to Maine families and our local economies.
As the Administration assesses next steps, I’ll work to ensure Mainers have a seat at the table.
Sen. Susan Collins@SenatorCollins
The Maine economy is integrated with Canada, our most important trading partner. Certain tariffs will impose a significant burden on many families, manufacturers, the forest products industry, small businesses, lobstermen, and agricultural producers. For example, 95 percent of the heating oil used by most Mainers to heat their homes comes from refineries in Canada. The Air National Guard Base in Bangor depends completely on jet fuel and diesel from Canada. From fisheries to potato farmers to paper mills, these tariffs will have a significant impact on Maine’s economy and risk increasing costs for our residents. I am working with the Trump Administration to help its officials better understand the potential ramifications of certain tariffs on Maine and to find out more about their implementation, scope, duration, and other important information, including any exemptions they may make for northern border states, certain industries, agricultural producers, and others who rely on trade with Canada.

Raise your hand if you voted for Trump to foment a trade war with Canada until it surrenders it's sovereignty and joins the U.S. as "the cherished 51st State?"
But if you voted for him because prices were too high, you're about to be royally pissed!

Pay attention to all of the voices on the right insulting NATO.

They say we get the leaders we deserve.
Either that has just been disproven, or this is not the America we all thought we were living in.

After last night, I have taken a long look and made a decision:
I’m doubling down. We will protect our democracy, and never give up.
NEVER
