FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino shared the following update on Friday July 25th; “As promised, I want to provide an update on our efforts out of @FBI to defend the homeland and protect Americans from threats here at home and around the world. We’re right around the 6 month mark, and thanks to the leadership of this administration and the work of our men and women of law enforcement, there is no doubt our country is safer today than it was in January.
– Immigration Enforcement: Since January 20, the FBI has assisted our partners at @DHS in over 21,900 immigration enforcement-related detentions and arrests. We surged resources at never before seen levels to meet the need after four years of a crisis at the southern border. Our agents and field teams did a tremendous job rising to the challenge.
-Violent Crime Arrests: From January 20th- present, there have been over 12,400 arrests in the violent crime and gang program. We’re crushing gang operations at the source and taking them off the streets.
-Illegal Drug Seizures: Between January 20th to last Friday July 18th, the FBI has seized 1,430 kilograms of fentanyl – an increase over the same timeframe from last year (1,089 kgs). This work is saving lives.
-Additionally, in that same time frame, the FBI has seized over 62,000 kilograms of cocaine, 5,000 kilograms of methamphetamine and 12,600 kilograms of marijuana.
-Because of these successes, and others, we continue to be on pace for one of the lowest murder rates ever recorded in the U.S. That is no accident.
We have so much more to do. The work will continue. God bless America, and all those who defend her.”

The evil of human trafficking cannot be overstated. It’s modern-day slavery. By leaving our borders open and even encouraging people to come here illegally, Biden enabled the largest human-trafficking operation in modern history.⁰⁰We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to… pic.twitter.com/EQnIy1RzZg
