Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino has wrapped up his 3rd month in his new role and just revealed all that the FBI has done in the last three months of his tenure.
It’s somewhat lengthy but there’s some good overall stuff in this. Also, it’s great he’s being as transparent as he can:
As I wrap up my third month in the Deputy position in your FBI, I want to update you on some of the actions the Director and I have taken to reform the FBI, while keeping the heat on violent criminals, terrorists, and foreign threat actors.
Some of these action items you may have read about, some you may have not.
-Operation “Restoring Justice” apprehended 205 child sex predators and 764 purveyors, while rescuing 115 children. Operation “Soteria Shield” resulted in the apprehension of 244 child predators, and 109 children were rescued. This is just the beginning. If you’re preying on children, we are coming for you.
-We warned those violently acting out in the recent riots that we would not tolerate it, and we would not forget. Over 700 arrests have been made in coordination with our federal and state partners. Many of those arrests are members of organized groups, and we are pouring through data in pursuit of more bad actors. We are not done. We are in the process of identifying and moving in on those who threw rocks at law enforcement officers and damaged property. I told you we would not forget. I wasn’t kidding. Stay tuned for more.
-We are making progress on a number of high profile cases – including the COVID coverup, the Dobbs leak, the pipe bomb investigation and more. More updates coming.
-We located and apprehended three of the FBI’s top ten “most wanted” and hope to have more updates very soon.
-In conjunction with our federal partners, we apprehended, imprisoned, and deported thousands of illegal aliens. Many of these illegal immigrants had extremely violent criminal histories. We told you that the rioting was not going to slow us down. It has not. We are fully engaged.
-We made numerous personnel changes to the leadership of the FBI, and we reorganized the structure of the FBI to ensure the mistakes of the past are corrected, penalized, and not repeated.
-We are closing the FBI headquarters building and moving to an alternate location which will save the taxpayers billions of dollars. We are also moving people out of headquarters assignments and back into operational law enforcement and counter-terror roles.
-We arrested multiple foreign intelligence targets engaged in illegal activities which presented a danger to the Homeland. Many of these critical cases were covered by the media. Some will not be made public.
-We are in the process of rolling releases on items of public interest as we add resources to our transparency reform efforts. We completed the JFK files, the RFK files, the China 2020 election IR, and we are rolling out much more on January 6th, Crossfire Hurricane and more.
-We are rolling out a nationwide summer violent crime crackdown as the murder rate plummets to an all time low. We will not let up.
-We are making changes to the hiring process, and the physical fitness requirements. We are eliminating DEI and getting the FBI back to its roots – chasing criminals and terrorists.
-We are remaining hyper-vigilant in protecting the Homeland given the current global climate, while we deal with investigations related to the rioting, the Washington DC murders, the Palm Springs bombing, the Boulder attack, the Minnesota murders, and our daily case work.
-There’s a lot more work to be done. A lot. Stay tuned on disclosures, and the public corruption fronts. For those who have been patient with us, thank you. For those who are out of patience, thank you too. Believe me, we understand.
God bless America, and all those who defend Her. ????????
