Attorney General Pam Bondi<\/a> will stop at nothing to eradicate fentanyl<\/a> from the streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Wednesday, Bondi revealed that she carries around a vial of fake fentanyl to show that just a tiny amount can be deadly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While appearing on Fox & Friends<\/em> from the White House lawn, Bondi discussed the importance of recent drug trafficking busts in several states that turned up massive amounts of fentanyl, cocaine, and guns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To illustrate her point, she said she keeps a small bottle of \u201cfake fentanyl\u201d to remind herself how just a tiny amount can prove deadly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cEach pill has the potential to kill a human being. A human life. An American life. I\u2019ve been carrying around a little vial with fake fentanyl in it, the amount it takes to kill you, and it looks like a couple of grains of salt,\u201d Bondi told Fox & Friends<\/em> co-host Lawrence Jones.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday, Bondi announced that authorities made one of the biggest fentanyl busts in U.S. history with the seizure 409 kilos of fentanyl pills and 11.5 kilos of fentanyl powder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bondi said that around 35 kilos of methamphetamine, 35 kilos of meth, 7.5 kilos of cocaine and 4.5 kilos of heroin were also seized along with $5 million in cash and 49 rifles and pistols.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sixteen people were arrested in the operation. Six of the individuals are in the U.S. illegally, Bondi said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bondi also teased a joint announcement with FBI Director Kash Patel<\/a> of a major child exploitation ring bust later in the morning, while urging parents to take notice of their children\u2019s online habits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cYour kids have no right to privacy on the internet,\u201d she said, adding, \u201cChildren are getting recruited on the internet from being on games, social media or any social media platform. Parents, you\u2019ve got to monitor what your kids are doing because they think they are talking to other children and they are not. They are talking to monsters often.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve gotta be all in your children\u2019s business,\u201d Jones added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attorney General Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel announced<\/a> Wednesday that 205 alleged child sex predators who preyed on children online have been arrested in the last week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The Department of Justice will never stop fighting to protect children and we will not rest until we find and prosecute every child predator who preys on the most vulnerable.

Thank you to the @FBI<\/a> for incredible work. https:\/\/t.co\/N018H6mbzl<\/a><\/p>— Attorney General Pamela Bondi (@AGPamBondi) May 7, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote>
