FBI Director Kash Patel Announces Major Arrests of MS-13 and Other Gang Affiliates
In a bold move marking his early tenure as FBI Director, Kash Patel has announced a series of high-profile arrests, signaling a renewed commitment to public safety and border security.
On Monday night, Patel took to X (formerly Twitter) to share that the FBI’s Virginia Homeland Security Taskforce had apprehended 39 individuals associated with MS-13 and other criminal gangs. These arrests represent the first major enforcement action since Patel assumed leadership of the bureau, and they underscore the administration’s determination to address transnational criminal activity and protect American communities.
