Kash Patel Brings Receipts: The FBI Is Working Hard, Making America Safe Again

Kash Patel was happy to credit Bongino with creating the FBI’s strategy to crack down hard on violent crime. And the results speak for themselves, in cold, hard facts.

Anyone who checked in on Bongino’s tweets over the past few months would get little glimpses of what they’ve been up to, as results from one city or another’s ‘Operation Summer Heat’ started showing up on the scoreboard. This many arrests. This many guns taken off the street. This many drugs seized. This many women or children rescued from the grips of traffickers… and so on.

This week, Trump welcomed the head of the new-look FBI to the Oval Office to bring an update to how things have been progressing under the new management. And they came with a fat stack of ‘receipts’ and hard numbers.

And that’s just PART of the success story we’ve been seeing this week.

Some of Summer Heat’s success, by the numbers…

That ‘Children Recovered’ stat would be worth celebrating, even on its own. But when we realize that a very small percentage of total crimes are commited by habitual offenders, in some cases, multiple times a day, getting this many criminals off the street will make a massive difference in making the streets safe again.

Kash Patel puts this massive effort in historical context. This CRUSHES what we have seen in the past. ‘Historic by every metric’.

BREAKING: FBI Director Kash Patel just REVEALED how much Operation Summer Heat accomplished, and it's HISTORIC!

– Arrests of violent criminals: 8,700
– Firearms seized: 2,200 (permanently removed from streets)
– Fentanyl seized: 421 kg (enough to kill 55 million Americans)

On top of that, we’ve got John Bolton facing Espionage Act indictments, and the July 4th anti-ICE violence that nearly killed law enforcement (Dems only care about such issues if they happen on one day in January, apparently) has resulted in terror charges for a couple of people with alleged Antifa connections.

Add in the other routine coordinated efforts of inter-agency police work, like the massive move being made to liberate 60 victims (including a 14yo girl) from the clutches of an international human trafficking ring posing as ‘massage parlors’…

…and we have one HELL of a context against which tom easure Bongino’s challenge ‘judge us by our results’.

We’ll still have the habitual nay-sayers who spend most of their lives picking fly poop out of pepper, but by any metric? This is a great win for anyone who takes the safety and wellbeing of private citizens seriously.
