FBI Director Kash Patel has broken his silence regarding the swatting incidents targeting major conservative figures across the country.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, several conservative figures including Nick Sortor, Gunther Eagleman, and Shawn Farash have been swatted over the last couple of days.
Catturd and Gunther’s brother Mike were also swatted this morning. This is the fourth time Catturd has been a victim of this left-wing terrorism.
This comes after Infowars journalist Jamie White was brutally murdered in Austin earlier this week while another journalist from the organization got swatted twice.
Independent Journalist Breanna Morello notes there have been at least six switching incidents in the last two days, with many more conservatives scared to come forward.
BREAKING@catturd2 was swatted for a fourth time last night.
Many conservatives aren’t willing to go on the record when they’re swatted.
I can confirm about 6 incidents in the last 48 hours.
What’s the FBI doing about this?
Well I asked, but the FBI has not issued a…

Now, Patel has just issued a response to the swatting incidents that should give comfort to conservatives across America.
“I want to address the alarming rise in ‘Swatting’ incidents targeting media figures,” Patel wrote on X. “The FBI is aware of this dangerous trend, and my team and I are already taking action to investigate and hold those responsible accountable.”
“This isn’t about politics—weaponizing law enforcement against ANY American is not only morally reprehensible but also endangers lives, including those of our officers. That will not be tolerated,” he added. “We are fully committed to working with local law enforcement to crack down on these crimes.”
“More updates to come.”

Time for arrests and prosecutions next.
p
Kash....you BETTER START ARRESTING!
Figure the FBI will not do much...
SWAT the ones responsible for the swatting.
Call it what it is: domestic terrorism. Treat it appropriately.
Hey, Kash, start pulling people in and grilling them. Let’s see some heat, some pressure. You know like cops always do when they want to get the ball rolling?
Kash....you BETTER START ARRESTING!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Exactly right. We don’t need media sound bites we want to see arrests being made. Bondi and Kash need to bring the heat, like NOW!
I will be shocked to the core if the FBI gets motivated and catch anyone, figure they will slow walk any investigation.
Remember, “swatting” is using militarized local law enforcement to potentially kill a citizen who does not respond correctly
The people who call in these reports are evil and wretched
But it couldn’t happen without having local SWAT cowboys, armed up, playing Seal-Team Six, responding like they have a tip that someone has found Abu al-Zarqawi in Fallujah.
I am wondering if when the swatting is indicated, the cops could show up at the billing address for the cell phone owner?
“Radical leftists” = the Democrat Party.
Wow, where did all the know-it-all tough guys come from in these responses?
Does anyone believe the FBI doesn’t want to make an example out of these swatters?
Settle down, and let them do their job. Yelling at Patel & Bondi may make you feel better, but I doubt it’s doing much to solve the problem. #keyboardgeniuses
Conservative Benny Johnson’s family was targeted last summer while he was at the RNC. Pregnant wife and 3 small children.
Perhaps this has been posted before.....but.....
Is the method(s) used by these cowardly terror swatters so foolproof that we NEVER hear of anyone being caught for it AND prosecuted and punished? Please correct me if I am incorrect and people are being caught and successfully prosecuted for it.
Did I miss the catches of perps and their prosecutions?
Any caught?
Who was the punk kid arrested some months back for SWATting? Seems he was using phone tech to hide his location. I wonder if he’s in jail.
If I have a ‘Pizza Delivery’ at My door I’m dialing 911.

No Delivery
No Tip.
The same thing happened to talkshow host Joe Pags a couple of nites ago.
