President Donald Trump has taken to his Truth Social platform to celebrate what he describes as the FBI’s ‘historic results’ since the start of his administration in January.

On Monday evening, Trump shared that over 28,000 violent offenders have been apprehended, a ‘record-breaking’ figure, and more than 6,000 weapons have been confiscated in the process.

Included in these arrests are more than 1,700 individuals identified as ‘child predators’ and 300 involved in human trafficking, according to the president.

Trump further noted that efforts have resulted in the rescue of 5,000 children, the disruption of 2,000 criminal networks, and the seizure of 1,900 kilograms of fentanyl. He highlighted the potential danger of the fentanyl, stating it was ‘enough to kill 125 million people.’

‘The FBI, under my Administration, is doing an incredible job,’ Trump stated emphatically.

He continued by asserting that his administration is restoring ‘LAW AND ORDER’ to the nation. Trump extended his commendations to FBI Director Kash Patel, Deputy Director Dan Bongino, and Deputy Director Andrew Bailey, along with ‘the men and women of the FBI’ for their dedication to ‘MAKING AMERICA SAFE AGAIN!’

The bureau’s successes have been well documented, with Attorney General Pam Bondi announcing in May that the Justice Department seized 3 million fentanyl pills as part of the largest-ever multi-state drug operation in U.S. history.

She said the operation spanned at least four states and was being run by a group of drug traffickers that included half-a-dozen people in the U.S. illegally.

He also praised the ‘men and women of the FBI for ‘doing a tremendous job MAKING AMERICA SAFE AGAIN!’

‘This multi-agency operation – led by DEA with our local, state, tribal and federal partners – targeted one of the largest and most dangerous drug trafficking and foreign terrorist organizations in our country,’ Bondi said in a press conference on the historic operation.

She added: ‘The DEA seized 11.5 kilos of fentanyl, including an astounding approximately 3 million fentanyl pills – the largest seizure in our nation’s history.’

Bondi said the seizure and arrests are ‘the most significant victory in our nation’s fight against fentanyl and drug trafficking to date.’

In January, the FBI also announced that a Missouri man on the bureau’s most wanted list for child sex trafficking had been nabbed after two years on the run.

Donald Eugene Fields II, 60, was arrested in a routine traffic stop in Florida, two years after he was federally indicted. 

He now faces charges of child sex trafficking, with an indictment accusing Fields of ‘knowingly attempting to recruit, entice, provide, patronize, and solicit a minor into engaging in a commercial sex act from about January 2013 until June 2017,’ the agency said.

Fields also faces charges including statutory sodomy, statutory rape, child molestation, and witness tampering in Missouri’s Franklin County Circuit Court.

The president is now hoping to continue his law enforcement record, with a brutal migrant crackdown in Chicago, where ICE guards were seen dragging people off the streets as vigilante groups fought back.

Trump has described the Windy City as ‘the most dangerous city in the world,’ adding: ‘I have an obligation. This isn’t a political thing.’

‘I have an obligation when 20 people are killed over the last two and a half weeks and 75 are shot with bullets.’

Chicago is notorious for its gun crime and its poor suburbs have long been regarded as the most dangerous urban area in the United States. 

According to data published by the Chicago Police Department, violent crimes including murder and criminal sexual assault committed between October 6 and October 12 have fallen by 32 percent compared to the same dates in 2024.

The same period has also seen a massive 58 percent reduction in shootings compared to last year.

But as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents round up increasing numbers of illegal immigrants for deportation, they are being confronted by a growing army of liberal vigilantes who are trying to halt deportations.

They have accused ICE agents of brutality, using smoke grenades, tear gas and pepper balls to turn the city into what they describe as a ‘war zone’.

ICE’s agents have also been accused of wrongfully targeting American citizens, including a TV producer who was ‘violently assaulted’ by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers and had her backside exposed in the scuffle.

Veteran WGN-TV producer Deborah Brockman was seen being slammed to the ground as mask-wearing Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers cuffed her in the Chicago suburb of Lincoln Square.  

She ‘adamantly denies’ any assault allegations on the federal officers, and her legal team added she ‘was the one who was violently assaulted.’

‘This incident should be alarming and horrifying to every single person in this country.’

The local TV producer was detained and held in custody for seven hours before she was released without charges.

The CBP agents who were patrolling the area have claimed Brockman threw something at their vehicle – despite the producer’s legal team saying she was simply walking to the bus stop when she was assaulted.

ICE’s alleged brutality has become such a problem in the city that many of its residents are starting to fight back, according to the New York Times. 

The newspaper reported that Chicagoans have begun forming volunteer groups to monitor ICE activity, posting their findings on Facebook and Signal group chats when agents are seen. 

If agents are spotted, motorists reportedly press their car’s horns to warn that they are in the area. 

Last month, Chicago city council member Andre Vasquez even sponsored a ‘community defense workshop’ that aimed to inform residents of their rights and teach them how to politically organize. 

He told the New York Times: ‘Chicago’s been doing just fine, and then these guys showed up. 

‘There is big concern about what these unidentified, masked men are doing in this city without accountability. 

‘Chicagoans are just trying to live their life. We’re not going to tolerate unconstitutional authoritarianism.’

It now remains unclear when the operation in Chicago will come to an end.
