Patel Shuts Down Criticisms With Long List of FBI Wins [WATCH]

Patel was ready.

During this week’s Senate Committee on Appropriations hearing, FBI Director Kash Patel came prepared to knock down criticisms of the Trump Admin’s FBI, even holding up a list of wins when confronted by Washington Senator Patty Murray during a tense exchange.

“This is what real leadership looks like at the FBI,” Patel said, holding up a printed list. “20-point drop in the homicide rate. 45,000 violent offenders arrested last year, twice as many as in 2024. 2,450 criminal gangs disrupted — that’s a 322% increase from 2024. 6,900 child victims have been located since I’ve been in the seat — that’s 144% increase. 2,900 child predators and human traffickers arrested — that’s a 70% increase. And we’ve arrested 8 of the top 10 most wanted fugitives in the world in 14 months.”

“The mission has never been better.”
