FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino has revealed the FBI has made 28,000 violent crime arrests this year, and the year is far from over. The past 3 or 4 years, Bongino claims, the FBI averaged around 16,000 violent crime arrests per year.
Bongino said, “It shows that when you get a president, an attorney general, a deputy attorney general and an FBI leadership team that lets the FBI do FBI work, instead of getting into other nonsense like in the past. Look what happens. Your cities get cleaner.”
FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino is touting the the number of violent criminals arrested so far this year by the FBI, noting that the 28,000 arrests are nearly double the yearly average under Biden.
Bongino told Fox News that, over the past 3 or 4 years, the FBI would average 15,000 to 16,000 arrests of violent criminals but noted that this year’s arrests are nearly double, saying, “We’ve made 28,000 violent crime arrests in 2025, and the year’s not even over.”
