FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino revealed on Saturday that in the initial three months of his and Director Kash Patel’s tenure, the agency executed extensive operations targeting sex predators. They also made several high-profile arrests, including those on foreign intelligence and the FBI’s “most wanted” list, while supporting efforts in immigration law enforcement.
In an X post, Bongino said two child sex predator stings resulted in the rescues of hundreds of children.
During Operation “Restoring Justice,” the agency successfully apprehended 205 child sex predators and 764 individuals involved in their activities, rescuing 115 children in the process. Another initiative, called Operation “Soteria Shield,” led to the capture of 244 child predators and the rescue of 109 children.
“This is just the beginning,” Bongino wrote in the post. “If you’re preying on children, we are coming for you.”

“We are not done,” Bongino said. “We are in the process of identifying and moving in on those who threw rocks at law enforcement officers and damaged property. I told you we would not forget. I wasn’t kidding. . . . We told you that the rioting was not going to slow us down. It has not. We are fully engaged.”
Though the FBI acknowledges there is more work to be done, he said to stay tuned on disclosures and the public corruption fronts.
“For those who have been patient with us, thank you,” Bongino said. “For those who are out of patience, thank you, too. Believe me, we understand. God bless America, and all those who defend Her.”
