🚨 Tech Titans Unite! Trump's team is reaching out to the biggest names in tech—Google, Microsoft, and Meta—to join forces against online drug sales. 📱💊
President-elect Donald Trump's transition squad is setting up a mid-December meetup with these tech powerhouses to tackle the ever-growing issue of drugs being sold online. Jim Carroll, who was the drug czar during Trump's first term, is leading the charge. 🚀
They've also dialed up Snap and TikTok 📞, hoping to get everyone on board. But so far, no word back from the companies. 🕵️♀️
Trump isn't messing around when it comes to combating fentanyl trafficking, especially from Mexico. 🇲🇽 He's even threatened to slap tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada if they don't step up to curb the flow of fentanyl and illegal migration. 💥
He's also launching a U.S. ad campaign to show the real dangers of fentanyl use. 📣
This move comes after Meta faced investigations earlier this year over drug sales on Facebook and Instagram, and eBay settled with the Department of Justice for a whopping $59 million over similar concerns. 😱
Looks like the tech world and politics are colliding once again! Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story. 🔥
