This FBI, thanks to what we stood up over the last year, has made significant headway under the NSPM 7 process in looking at those who funded these streams and are starting to arrest people who used their funds to incite violence in the guise of political peaceful protest.
Well, it's not hard, Dan, as you know, as an 1811 and a former police officer, it's not hard to do the job you signed up for if you're allowed to do the job you signed up for.
And President Trump and this administration backs law enforcement and gave us the resources at this FBI and gave us the autonomy in you and I and running this building to remove the red tape, to remove the unnecessary approvals and to get a thousand extra agents.
That's what we did, Dan.
We put a thousand agents into the field from Washington, D.C.,
We permanently, permanently removed them from the national capital region and sent them across to every single field office.
And what did that do?
It allowed people to hit the streets and investigate crimes.
And it led to this.
And I know you've seen this, but this is one year in the making of true historic reductions in crime.
And you're talking about a 20% reduction in murder rate.
You're talking about a 32% increase in fentanyl seizures, enough to kill 150 million Americans.
Dan, you're talking about four top 10 arrests in one year, but as soon as you left, I had to add two more.
So now we're up to six.
You know, I couldn't let it stand at four.
So in one calendar year, we arrested six of the FBI's most-run fugitives in the world.
You got to let them know, those six go to you.
You laid the groundwork for it.
You work quietly behind the scenes.
I'm just telling you.
