Trump Announces Which City Is Next As Part of Ongoing Crimefighting Push

“If you look at the past four years of the Biden administration, [there were] 16,000, 17,000, 15,000, 15,000 … arrests year over year of violent felons in this country,” Patel said, according to Fox. “You have 28,600 arrests of violent felons in just seven months alone because of your leadership and the dedication of the men and women at the FBI who want to go out there and do the job they were prevented from doing. … This number is historic by every metric.”

Patel also emphasized the FBI’s efforts to locate missing children, stating that 5,400 have been found since January.

“That is a 30% increase year to date over the last administration,” he said. “Violent crimes against children arrests alone are up 10% [and] gang arrests are up 210% in the last seven months alone. … Mr. President, you said we have to go after the worst of the worst. … This is just the beginning.”
