FBI Director Kash Patel

Advancing the National Cyber Strategy demands constant engagement with the private sector. Adversaries can compromise a single entity with cascading impacts on hundreds of organizations and millions of Americans. That’s why we launched Operation Winter SHIELD, the #FBI’s most comprehensive cyber defense initiative to date. We’re providing industry with a practical roadmap to harden their networks and build resilience now – before law enforcement responds to an intrusion. fbi.gov/wintershield #OWS

New year, same dedication to the mission. In the last 3 months, #FBI Albany has collaborated with our outstanding #LawEnforcement partners on countless investigations that delivered impactful results you can see here. And while we're proud of these results, we recognize the impact of our partnerships goes far beyond the tangible stats. We've provided expert level training to dozens of partner agencies. Everything from PIO/media training and undercover classes to bomb tech certification, SWAT and cell analysis training. Because sharing our intel and expertise ensures we can all accomplish our shared goal of keeping our communities safe the best way we know how...together. As we head into Spring, you can count on FBI Albany to continue to leverage our strong partnerships at every level of law enforcement to crush violent crime and defend the homeland.

This FBI is ready to work with lawmakers on tougher sentences for convicted terrorists as well as the denaturalization process - so that no one who shouldn’t be in this country can attack and kill American citizens. Thank you for the question @EliseStefanik.

FBI Director Kash Patel is quite literally overhauling the FBI in real time, making it more efficient, less political, and the results are record numbers of arrests, drug seizures and violent crime reduction. I quite literally voted for this.

Under President Trump, this FBI is back to its core mission: hunting down criminals and protecting the American people.

This @FBI stopped four terrorist attacks in December alone. Let good cops be cops — and they save American lives.

2 child predators captured in 1 week: rescuing 7 month infant and 16 year old foxnews.com/us/fbi-rescues…

Just 6 weeks prior to the attack at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield Michigan, @FBIDetroit hosted an active shooter training at that exact location. These trainings often go unnoticed - but this is exactly why we do them. Preparation is everything. Thank you to the brave law enforcement officers who engaged the attacker that day and no doubt saved lives.

En Washington, me reuní con el director del @FBI @FBIDirectorKash Kash Patel, en representación del Gabinete de Seguridad. Reafirmamos que la cooperación bilateral, basada en la reciprocidad, el respeto a nuestra soberanía y la responsabilidad compartida, permite avanzar con resultados concretos. Derivado de este intercambio de información, autoridades mexicanas han detenido en nuestro país a varios objetivos incluidos en la lista de los más buscados del FBI, así como la detención de otros generadores de violencia que afectan a nuestro país. Seguiremos trabajando para reducir la violencia en México, en cumplimiento de la instrucción de nuestra Presidenta @Claudiashein .

This FBI is back in the fight. Violent crime arrests up 112%. Murders and robberies down 20%. Fentanyl seizures up 31%, gangs dismantled up 210%. 6,200+ kids rescued. Predators and traffickers hunted down. We took the FBI out of DC and put it back on the streets where it belongs. Under President Trump, we’re chasing criminals. And we’re not slowing down.

This is what happens when you take the FBI out of Washington and put it back where it belongs, in the fight. • 6,200+ missing kids located, +30% • 1,700 child predators arrested, +17% • 300+ human traffickers arrested, +15% • 764 criminal networks dismantled, arrests +20% • Online exploitation & NVE arrests up 490% • 3.8M+ pedophile accounts terminated on the dark web • 435+ VCAC arrests, 300+ indictments • 322+ child victims located • 500+ child predator & HT arrests this year • Just rescued two minors, a 16-year-old and a 7-month-old We rebuilt this FBI from the ground up, pushed agents into the field, and turned every tool we have against these sick criminals. This FBI is coming for them.

.@FBIDirectorKash is right. When we empower law enforcement to do their jobs, fentanyl deaths go down, drugs and dealers come off our streets, and cartels and gangs are put on notice. The progress is encouraging, but the fight is far from over. Fentanyl claimed more than 2,000 lives in Pennsylvania in 2024. I look forward to working with Director Kash to keep this poison off our streets.

President Trump promised to crush the fentanyl crisis. Thanks to his administration’s leadership, interagency partnerships, and frontline law enforcement personnel all over the country - that’s exactly what we’re doing. We seized enough fentanyl to kill 178 million Americans.
