The FBI arrested 62% more “violent criminals” in the first five months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 following President Donald Trump’s return to office, Deputy Director Dan Bongino said Thursday.
Trump’s FBI has arrested 14,000 violent suspects, including cartel leaders, child predators and anti-deportation rioters, Bongino announced in a Thursday X post. The former conservative media host celebrated the numbers as indicative of a return to proper FBI priorities after the Biden administration frequently launched politically-charged criminal probes.
“We are mission-focused on crushing violent crime and making your neighborhoods noticeably safer … This is not a victory lap, we are doubling down hard,” Bongino said. Bongino highlighted early data showing the possibility of a record-low murder rate in the U.S. in 2025.
