‘All It Takes Is One Grain Of This Junk To Kill You’: Pam Bondi Explains How China’s Most Lethal Export Enters US

Attorney General Pam Bondi explained on Fox Business Monday how China’s most lethal export enters the United States.

The Trump administration closed a longstanding tariff loophole that let China ship cheap goods and deadly drugs into the U.S. without paying duties or facing customs checks. During an appearance on “Kudlow,” Bondi raised alarms over China’s role in America’s fentanyl crisis as she said China manages to ship fentanyl to the U.S.

“The precursors are all made in China. It’s shipped to Mexico, into our country, or through, now, India, other routes, ports of entry, USPS, coming into our country, and they’re killing our kids, and it’s got to stop,” Bondi told host Larry Kudlow.

Bondi said she blamed China for fueling the deadliest drug epidemic in the U.S by flooding American streets with illicit fentanyl precursors.

“People in China don’t get addicted to fentanyl. because they’re shipping it to our country to kill 18-to 34-year-olds. 75,000 Americans are dying every year because of fentanyl. It is a weapon of mass destruction, in my opinion. It’s destroying lives. It’s costing our taxpayers trillions of dollars. And it’s killing our kids, 18 to 34, number one cause of death,” Bondi said.

Holding up a single grain of table salt during the segment, Bondi issued a warning.

“It takes one grain of fentanyl. I put it in here to show you earlier. You can barely see it. It looks like one grain. This is salt, not fentanyl. One grain is all it takes to kill an American citizen, and that’s what these people are doing,” Bondi said.

Bondi also blamed the rise of counterfeit pills and laced recreational drugs for catching young people off guard.
