OPERATION BLACKOUT. These aren’t random scammers sitting behind laptops. They built fortified compounds, trafficked human beings, forced slave labor, and constructed an international fraud machine targeting Americans. So we’re dismantling the machine. $15+ BILLION in assets and crypto seized. 500+ fake investment sites shut down. Hundreds arrested. Thousands of trafficked workers freed. 10,000+ Americans warned before they could be robbed. More than $500 MILLION saved. And 20+ countries are now coordinating in this fight. These criminals built an industry that could target Americans from anywhere. -DKP 🇺🇸

Over 18 months ago, during my confirmation process, I told you exactly what this FBI needed to become: faster, more efficient, more accountable to the American people, less bureaucratic, free from the disgraceful weaponization of law enforcement, stronger through technology and partnerships — and most importantly, an organization that lets good cops be cops. Under President Trump’s leadership, we didn’t just accelerate that mission. We delivered. -DKP🇺🇸

Accountability. Efficiency. Transparency. → $300 MILLION in taxpayer dollars saved → FBI footprint in Washington, D.C. reduced by 1/3 → Nearly 50,000 pages delivered to Congress in just 18 months → A 350% INCREASE in transparency compared to the prior two directors combined over 11 years We’re cutting waste, moving resources out of Washington and back into the heartland, and delivering the transparency the American people deserve. -DKP🇺🇸

Indian Country will NOT be forgotten. → Nearly 500 FBI employees dedicated through Operation Steadfast Promise — the largest-ever surge to Indian Country → Rewards quadrupled to at least $25,000 through Voices Not Forgotten → More Indian Country investigations opened in the last 18 months than ever before → New full FBI field office opened in Billings, Montana → Full Law Enforcement Attaché presence now established across ALL Five Eyes partners Missing persons. Victims. Families waiting for answers. We are putting more agents, more resources, and more attention where they belong — in the field, fighting for these communities. -DKP🇺🇸

11,100 CHILDREN FOUND. Let that number sink in. In just the last 18 months, this FBI has helped locate 11,100 missing children — a 21% INCREASE. Senator Blackburn noted that under the Biden administration, north of 300,000 children could not be found. Every number represents a child. A family. A life that matters. -DKP🇺🇸

Fraudsters are stealing from Americans at home and operating scam centers around the world. This FBI is taking the fight to them. → Nearly $500 MILLION tied to Feeding Our Future fraud → About 100 people indicted and charged → 6 Most Wanted Fraudsters captured in 3 months → $2 BILLION+ in fraud tied to those fugitives → 4 joint overseas operations in 18 months → $17 BILLION in fraud, crypto, and cash seized → $1 BILLION in fraud prevented through Operation Level Up Through Operation Blackout, we’re hitting scam centers at the source — freeing trafficked workers, collecting evidence, cutting communications, and working with partners to shut these criminal operations down. -DKP🇺🇸

Credit where it’s due: Vice President JD Vance had the idea to take the success of the FBI Top Ten and use that same model to hunt down the fraudsters stealing from American seniors, families, and taxpayers. The results: → 10 of 10 FBI Top Ten Most Wanted captured in 18 months → 6 of 12 Most Wanted Fraudsters captured since June → $2 BILLION in fraud → 5,000 collective days on the run → 4 separate continents → All 6 in custody — 5 already back in the United States The Vice President had the idea. The American people gave us the information. This FBI went and got them. -DKP🇺🇸

.@FBIDirectorKash on the largest crime reduction in U.S. history under the Trump Administration: "The FBI led to the arrest of 54,000 violent offenders last year alone — that is a 90% increase."

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: The @FBI has stopped 1,100 terrorist attacks since the beginning of the Trump administration. "That's a 22% increase from the prior 18 months," @FBIDirectorKash tells me. The FBI also secured the first-ever alien REMOVAL of a terrorist. "That statue has been on the books since the 1990s," Director Patel said. "The Trump administration finally utilized this statute that passed two and a half decades ago before 9/11 to make sure not only are we prosecuting, investigating, and stopping terrorist attacks from occurring, but we're kicking people out of our country who are following terrorist ideology..." @SatAmericaFNC @FoxNews ⬇️

🚨WEEK IN FRAUD🚨 ✅$100M Most Wanted Fraudster Emylee Thai 👉CAPTURED BY @FBI/@FBIDirectorKash in Vietnam. ✅ @VP’s $245M @SBAgov/@SBAOIG/@TheJusticeDept takedown in Kansas City (which included 80 fraud defendants charged in 80 days). @USAO_WDMO. ✅12 “Ghost Daycare” operators charged and arrested for felony fraud offenses in San Diego (@SDCAnews/@HSI_HQ/@IRS_CI). ✅ 3 charged, with multiple arrests, in Los Angeles (@USAO_LosAngeles/@HUDOIG / @IRS_CI / @FBILosAngeles) for roles in schemes to steal over $10M from homeless assistance programs. ✅Data sharing agreements entered with more great fraud-fighters, including @NeTreasurer & @MissouriSOS. 🤜 ✅Chinese national sentenced to 10 years for defrauding elderly Americans (@NDOHnews). ✅The House passed a bill to make the National Fraud Enforcement Division (@DOJFraudDiv) a permanent force for the taxpayers in the @TheJusticeDept. ✅Health care fraudster sentenced to 14 YEARS behind bars and ordered to pay restitution totaling ~$55 MILLION (@DOJFraudDiv/@USAO_AZ). ✅MANY other FRAUD charges, pleas, and sentencings in just the last 5 days. A GREAT week for America in the fight against fraud. But we aren’t satisfied. We’re not patting ourselves on the back. We’re charting our next takedowns right now — and we won’t be stopping anytime soon. 🇺🇸

WE ARE STOPPING SCHOOL SHOOTINGS BEFORE THEY HAPPEN. North Carolina — and roughly half a dozen other states. We increased the FBI’s use of AI by 605% to triage threats, get critical information to the field, and STOP people from killing children in our schools. This is not political. This is the mission. We will use every lawful technological tool available to safeguard our most precious resource: our children. -DKP🇺🇸

THE RESULTS AREN’T UP FOR DEBATE. 54,000 violent offenders arrested — UP 90%. We put our people in the field. We strengthened our task forces. And we worked shoulder-to-shoulder with our state and local partners. The result: a historic reduction in violent crime across America. We’re going to keep arresting violent offenders and delivering for the American people. -DKP🇺🇸

THE LAW HAS BEEN ON THE BOOKS SINCE THE 1990s. We are using every lawful tool available to investigate, prosecute, and stop terrorist attacks — and to remove people from our country who promote terrorist ideology that inspires crimes and attacks against Americans. -DKP🇺🇸

THE RESULTS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES. Our partnerships with state, local, and international law enforcement are what make this mission work. 54,000 violent offenders arrested last year alone. The largest FBI-led historic reduction in crime in U.S. history. While some want to argue, we’ll keep delivering for the American people. -DKP🇺🇸

These attacks DID NOT happen because the FBI and our partners stopped them. → 8 extremists disrupted before the UFC Freedom 250 event → 5 arrested in the Michigan “Pumpkin Day” plot → 4 separate terrorist attacks stopped in ONE MONTH — California, Texas, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania → Another alleged ISIS-inspired attack disrupted in Pittsburgh this weekend Our agents and partners work around the clock to find these threats BEFORE innocent Americans are killed. Find the threat. Stop the attack. Protect the homeland. -DKP🇺🇸

Foreign partnerships produce results. → 100+ calls to foreign counterparts in 18 months → 86 Foreign Transfers of Custody executed overseas → Extraditions UP 54% That means violent offenders, terrorists, narco-traffickers, gang members, child predators, and cybercriminals brought back to face American justice. The worst of the worst can run overseas. They cannot hide. Pick up the phone. Work with our partners. Bring them home to face justice. -DKP🇺🇸

They said the Director was “missing in action.” The record says otherwise. 4 personal days off this year. Less personal travel. More days working. And the mission results that were laid out today: → Murder down roughly 20% → 54,000 violent felons arrested → 11,000 child victims located → 6 Most Wanted Fraudsters captured—tied to $2 BILLION in alleged fraud → Enough fentanyl seized to save countless American lives We have the calendars. We have the receipts. And most importantly—we have the results. The men and women of this FBI are working every day to crush violent crime and defend the homeland. -DKP🇺🇸

🚨 THEY SAID THE FBI DIRECTOR WAS “MISSING IN ACTION.” Then Kash Patel dropped THIS on the Senate. Watch the media bury it. Predecessors took 33 days off a year. Kash: 4 days this year. They used Reagan National like a personal lily pad — $3.5 MILLION of YOUR money. He killed that. Andrews and government fields only. Taxpayers off the hook. Least personal travel of ANY FBI Director in history. Highest work days. Highest results. 📉 Murder rate down 20 points 💊 Enough fentanyl seized to kill a quarter million Americans — 20% fewer kids dying of overdoses 🎯 ALL 10 of the FBI’s Most Wanted captured 💰 Six of the world’s top fraudsters — $2 BILLION stolen from Americans 👶 11,000 child victims found and located 🚔 54,000 violent felons arrested by the FBI alone — 90% increase in 18 months That is making America safer than it’s ever been. Media won’t run this. You will. 🎥 Watch him say it. Then RT it. #MAGA# #FBI# #KashPatel# #AmericaFirst# #DrainTheSwamp#
