FBI Director Kash Patel announced on Thursday that the agency has arrested more than 6,000 people, including hundreds of alleged gang members, as part of its "immigration efforts" since President Donald Trump took office.

Patel thanked the president and Attorney General Pam Bondi for the push to crack down on illegal immigration.

"FBI leadership just received an update on our immigration efforts since January 20, 2025. As of this morning: Over 6,000 subjects detained and arrested 310 Tren de Aragua members and 136 MS-13 members," Patel wrote on social media.

"We have so much more to do," he added, "But thanks to the leadership of this administration and [Bondi], your hardworking FBI teams, and our regional law enforcement partners, we're making America safer every single day."

That’s good. Glad to see it. But so far, not a single arrest about the Epstein list, the stolen 2020 election, nor the massive theft and embezzlement DOGE has discovered.

Take a couple minutes to document that they are illegals, then get them out of here.
The same processing Joe & Co. used to decide every single gang banger was a “political refugee”. Adios, don’t come back or it’s tent city behind razor wire.

I hope it is just 6000 for crimes and ICE is arresting and deporting themselves of thousands. We need to pick up the pace if we hope to deport even a significant percentage of the 20 million that are here.

Get the criminal bad guys off the street. Make the streets safe. And, get the bad guys out of the FBI and DOJ. Those guys are gumming up the works.

Why would the FBI do that?

I just saw a story where that head of the offices in the FBI in at least three states are telling their agents they can refuse to help ice. Compared it to Nazis.

Check back in a couple of years and let me know who got arrested for the Epstein list, the stolen 2020 election, nor the massive theft and embezzlement DOGE discovered will have been prosecuted.

The pattern is obvious to all but the blind now. They throw us a bone of a few street level people, but DC and intelligence criminals walk freely.

Link would be great if you have it—better yet it is worth a separate post....

I certainly hope that it’s only the beginning.

In order to deport just the illegals that Biden brought in, we need to start deporting 10,000 illegals a day, EVERY DAY to rid the country of 14 million illegal aliens in the next 4 years.

There were at least another 20 million already here when Biden was installed.

I’m guessing that President Trump wants to have his authority validated by SCOTUS before speeding up deportations.

Shutting off federal benefits will probably get most of them out, God willing.

“Gang members under Trump”? Makes Trump sound like a gang leader. Better headline warranted, maybe?
