The American Mom Podcast With Anne Fundner

Anne Fundner is a mother from California who gained public attention for speaking at the 2024 Republican National Convention about the tragic loss of her 15-year-old son, Weston, due to a fentanyl overdose in 2022. During her speech, she attributed her son's death to what she described as the consequences of open border policies under the Biden administration, linking the availability of fentanyl to illegal immigration and drug trafficking. Her emotional address was part of the convention's narrative focusing on crime, border security, and the impact of drug policies. Fundner's story has been highlighted by various figures and media outlets, especially within conservative circles, as a poignant example of the human cost associated with these issues. Her speech and the subsequent attention underscore a broader political discourse on immigration, border control, and drug enforcement policies in the United States.
