Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel has touted his agency’s efforts to crack down on illegal drug flow in the United States.

On Wednesday, Patel revealed to the Senate Intelligence Committee that nearly 5,000 pounds of fentanyl were taken off American streets in 2025.

“We seized enough fentanyl in 2025 to kill 178 million Americans. That’s a 31% increase year over year. And here’s a statistic that everybody should be proud of. Opioid overdose deaths from last year dropped 20 points,” Patel explained.

Patel highlighted the work done specifically in Oklahoma to make the Sooner State’s streets safer.
