All of the cases that were investigated were linked to Mexican cartels and to dozens of overdose poisonings.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Attorney General Merrick Garland has released details on the seizures. He said the DEA is doing all it can to get the deadly drugs off the streets.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cOver the course of these investigations, we seized over 10 million fake pills and 982 of fentanyl powder across all 50 states,\u201d Garland said. \u201cThat is enough to kill 36 million Americans.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The DEA administrator announced that two Mexican cartels are responsible for the deadly fentanyl pouring into the United States and that agency\u2019s top priority is to stop them.<\/p>\n<p>The latest warning from the DEA is rainbow fentanyl. Rainbow fentanyl is essentially rainbow-colored pills. It is believed that rainbow fentanyl was created with the goal to appeal to younger users. The bright colors resemble different types of candy. Drug traffickers have nicknamed the drug sweetarts and skittles. However, the drug has nothing to do with candy. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><\/figure>\n<p>Many people who are dying in result of fentanyl poisoning are not aware that they have taken the drug.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Attorney General Merrick Garland, left, listens as Drug Enforcement Administration Administrator Anne Milgram speaks during in a press event to announce the results of an enforcement surge to reduce the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1209,"featured_media":1889319,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1663041","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_finder_url":"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/newsroom\/dea-seizes-36-million-lethal-doses-of-fentanyl\/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=dea-seizes-36-million-lethal-doses-of-fentanyl","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1663041","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1209"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1663041"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1663041\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1889319"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1663041"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1663041"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1663041"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
