It has been one year since FBI Director Kash Patel completed his term. As a badge of honor, Patel is constantly attacked by partisan Democrats and other conspiracy theorists – including even some idiots on the right. In contrast to this smear, Patel has courageously and decisively led the FBI back to where it should be: the premier law enforcement agency in the world.
After many long days of working to ensure our American athletes and dignitaries stayed safe at the Olympic Games in Italy, Patel was invited into the locker room of the U.S. men’s hockey team following their gold medal victory over Canada. Because this was the first gold for the American men since the Miracle on Ice team in 1980, this became an important moment. Patel rightly allowed himself to bask in the historic moment of American patriotism and pride. The athletes clearly enjoyed the presence of a senior American official (and fellow hockey player), which became even more important when Patel called President Donald Trump to praise the gold medal-winning American team.

Democrats, who are quicker to defend a sitting Democratic U.S. senator sharing margaritas with an alleged human-trafficking and wife-beating illegal immigrant than a senior U.S. government official celebrating a U.S. gold medal with U.S. Olympians, predictably attacked Patel for his actions in the locker room after the game. It is clear to anyone with a heart for the cause that too many of today’s Democrats are nothing but horrible, anti-American Marxist losers. It’s hard to imagine anything lower than beating a senior American official for celebrating an iconic American victory at the Olympics.
In response to Patel’s (and America’s) haters, this is a good time to educate America about Trump FBI Director Kash Patel’s unprecedented success in his first year.
On September 10, 2025, Charlie Kirk was murdered by a degenerate. Thousands of Americans attended the event on Utah’s campus. The FBI took command under Patel’s leadership. Within two days, police took 22-year-old Tyler Robinson into custody. His father turned Robinson in after the Patel FBI broadcast footage from many video surveillance sources to the public. Robinson now awaits the swift justice he richly deserves. Despite the cheering of online conspiracy instigators, there are virtually no unanswered questions in the Kirk case, thanks to Patel’s quick and decisive leadership.

Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro became a main culprit in the massive importation of illegal drugs into the United States. Last month, the Patel FBI – with the help of military special forces – arrested Maduro and his wife at their fortress in Caracas. U.S. forces quickly rounded up the Maduros and extracted them from Venezuela with no U.S. casualties. They are now in a jail in Brooklyn. They faced a 2020 federal indictment but remained free for the entire Biden administration. This operation adds to Patel’s record of more than 2,100 pounds of fentanyl seized (up 31%), enough to kill 150 million Americans, and to the disruption of 1,800 gangs and criminal enterprises, up 210% year-over-year.
The FBI’s Ten Most Wanted list represents the worst of the worst when it comes to fugitives. Murderers, pedophiles, drug lords and terrorists make up the majority of the residents. Under Patel’s leadership, six of the Ten Most Wanted, collectively on the run for more than 50 years, are now being captured, exceeding the number of arrests in one year during the Biden administration (four in four years). Drug traffickers like Ryan Wedding, a former Canadian Olympian, attract media attention when they are captured, but other barbarians are off the streets thanks to Patel’s leadership.
FBI DIRECTOR KASH PATEL: WE MADE AMERICA SAFER IN JUST ONE YEAR
Just last month it was Alejandro Rosales Castillo’s turn to appear in court. This coward hid in Mexico for almost a decade after killing a 23-year-old co-worker in Charlotte, North Carolina. Cindy Rodriguez Singh, another monster, suffered the same fate. Singh is said to have murdered her 5-year-old child and fled to India. Thanks to Patel’s FBI, she was captured in New Delhi less than two months after her addition to the list. Overall, arrests under Patel’s FBI have increased 197% annually and more than 6,000 child victims have been located, a 22% increase year over year. Dedicated ‘crimes against children’ operations such as Restore Justice, Enduring Justice and Relentless Justice resulted in 730 arrests and over 450 victims identified.

For years, the domestic terrorists that make up Antifa have wreaked havoc in American cities. On July 4, 2025, two dozen of them allegedly attacked the Prairieland Detention Center, an ICE holding facility in Alvarado, Texas. The domestic terrorists allegedly shot at ICE agents, and a responding police officer nearly lost his life after a terrorist allegedly shot him in the neck.
It is critical to remember where the FBI had degenerated during the Biden administration. The Biden DOJ has spent years wasting enormous FBI resources tracking down every individual who took a selfie in the Capitol on January 6, 2021, even if the individuals had not acted violently. Other FBI resources went to investigating parents at school board meetings and mass-attending Catholics, out of alleged concerns that the parents and devout Catholics were becoming domestic terrorists.

Biden’s special counsel Jack Smith spent more than $50 million on an ultimately failed effort to jail President Trump. Prosecutors use law enforcement to conduct investigations, and Smith had the FBI at his disposal. Even before Smith’s arrival in November 2022, the FBI had raided President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home on the orders of Biden Attorney General Merrick Garland.

The FBI is no longer wasting its resources. Under Patel’s leadership, officers are not targeting pro-life Christians; they arrest foreign drug lords and narco-terrorist leaders. Officers do not investigate parents during school board meetings; They bring to justice parents who murdered their children. Cops don’t waste years on January 6; they spend time bringing violent domestic terrorists from Antifa to justice and arresting murder suspects like Tyler Robinson on short notice. Cops don’t join Jack Smith’s witch hunt; they investigate the perpetrators of Obama and Biden’s unprecedented, republic-ending legal action.
Special operations and wave initiatives, such as Summer Heat, have resulted in almost 9,000 arrests in just three months, while more than 450 human traffickers have been identified (up 23% year-on-year), and spy arrests have increased by 35% year-on-year. Patel has led a rapid turnaround of the FBI from a declining and weaponized organization back to an organization that Americans respected in their youth. Patel deserves enormous credit for that.
