" The idea that an American company is selling masks away from our hospitals...doctors...the real heroes on the front lines is... really criminal." — Jared Moskowitz

TRUMP TWEETS ABOUT IT:

“We hit 3M hard today after seeing what they were doing with their Masks. ‘P Act’ all the way.’ Big surprise to many in government as to what they were doing - will have a big price to pay!” Trump said on Twitter.

Great. 3M tells the team that they are making masks for the U.S and then sells them to another country. Real classy, that.

Peter Navarro announced at President Trump’s presser today that President Trump has already issued a DPA EO clobbering 3M, AND said EO includes orders for the Feds to track down all transportation of shipments of these materials extracted from 3m up to and including customs officials at the ports and seize said materials ... President Donald Trump IS REALLY PISSED!

My father would not buy from Standard oil company because their logo was on Japanese ships during WWII. 3M is looking to do the same?

There was a Forbes article about a day in the life of a mask broker and on a single day, 43 million N95 masks in New Jersey were sold overseas. There wasn’t one American buyer because the American buyers didn’t have permission to buy right then and there. Just a joke, basically.

Many other countries stopped N95 mask exports. South Korea initially allowed 10% exports then 0% a couple days later. Crazy that the USA is still exporting medical equipment that is in short supply in the USA. Kind of like the article yesterday about USAID sending medical equipment overseas while we were asking the same countries for the same aid.

This isn’t 3M’s fault.

3M = Minnesota Mining and manufacturing. Appears that disgraceful globalist filth is running it now.

No, distributors are selling the masks.
3M is just letting them.

Very unAmerican.

I come from a 3M family. Worked there for 3 generations.
I am VERY sorry that 3M isn’t steering their stock away from ruthless distributors.

Watch 3M blame it on their distributors.

Can’t price gouge in the US? Fine, we’ll price gouge somewhere else.

I don’t know what a “P Act” is but I hope Trump and DOJ take some heads.

Principles may count again.

Managers, investors and politicians have been partnering with foreign communist enemies against us for over 40 years while calling us communists.

Besides colluding with foreign communists for so long, they also destroyed our families with the changes in law and policies of the divorce/cohabitation/feminist paradigm. It’s all about contemporary slavery and the tactics used to implement it.

Trump should tell 3M that the ‘My Pillow’ guy is now the new CEO of 3M.

The packaging for the 3M masks that I have on hand say they are made in the USA from “globally sourced” materials.

What is going unsaid here is the it is the bureaucracy that is causing this issue. They are saying that other countries are getting preference because they are paying cash. My guess is that they are getting promises from state governments that can’t process the purchases in short order.

Not saying it is right but cash talks BS walks.
