What was said
"Yes, there are weapons that are tiny that you would never believe exist, and they deliver a lethal action in a number of different ways. Some of them deliver a lethal dose of poison, some of them deliver some sort of lethal impulse that throws off your heart and puts you in cardiac arrest."
When asked directly about miniaturized weapons depicted in spy films, Bustamante confirmed the CIA possesses weapons small enough to conceal in clothing buttons. He specified these devices can deliver poison, cardiac arrest-inducing electrical impulses, or agents that blind or confuse targets, validating what is typically dismissed as Hollywood fiction.
