"Fentanyl is just the cover for what's really wrong"

Sat Mar 15 2025

Blazing Reader,

Trump slapping a 25% tariff on Canada over fentanyl crossing the border didn't sound at all right to me. I started to question whether fentanyl is a cover story for what is really being negotiated behind closed doors.

Marc Cohodes, legendary short seller and investor recently voiced my suspicions on The Daniela Cambone Show:

"Fentanyl is just the cover for what's really wrong — what's really wrong is massive money laundering from the CCP [Chinese Communist Party] on a huge, huge, huge scale. Fentanyl is just one part of it."

In the same interview, Marc Cohodes is joined by former Vancouver Sun journalist, Sam Cooper. Sam Cooper's Substack page, The Bureau, is loaded with evidence showing how corrupt and lawless Canada has become. They are calling it the "Arctic Mexico."

Watch the interview or read Cooper's Substack for a shocking look at what these so-called "trade wars" may really be about.
