And President Trump has decided what intel priorities agencies like the FBI and CIA are to act upon.

That type of leadership is what has led to the historic reduction in crime.

That type of leadership is what led to us capturing six of the FBI's top 10 most wanted fugitives.

That type of leadership got us, the Abbey Gate bomber and the Benghazi bomber, on top of the six.

That type of leadership, Dan, you know this,

enabled us to do the Maduro operation, which the FBI played a role in, and all these other operations, most of which we can't talk about, but that type of leadership led to a 35% increase in espionage actors by this FBI alone.

And what the president doesn't get enough credit for is he's the one that directs the intelligence in the presidential daily briefing to set the priorities for this FBI to act.

And this FBI is able to act because he has the foresight to see

what evidence, what intel needs to be actioned, and what evidence and what intel is garbage.

And he has the audacity, and I think rightly so, to call out some of the false reporting that's in this or some of the mediocre reporting, which is why we have, and we don't have time to talk about it today, but you know this, we've reformed the Directorate of Intelligence.

That's rolling out this year.

We're sending 1,000 more personnel out into the field to support the staff and support operations.

But it's intelligence-driven.

We started the program talking about intel, and it's a good place to end the program.

But the president's daily briefing is directed by President Trump, and that's what led to this success.

Dan, I'm glad to be back.

And I just want to let your audience know this historic year, obviously not possible without President Trump, but definitely not possible without you as the deputy director.

We missed you and we're glad you're back on the air, though.

And we'll look forward to coming back soon.

Sean, without polluting the investigation, I will say we have made substantial progress in these last 36, 48 hours thanks to the technical capabilities of the FBI and our partnerships.
