FBI Director Kash Patel Defends Record Against 'Missing in Action' Claims

Kash Patel posted crime stats and work attendance to counter Senate criticism, sparking a split reaction with supporters citing results and critics mocking absences or questioning priorities.

“They said the Director was “missing in action.” The record says otherwise. 4 personal days off this year. Less personal travel. More days working. And the mission results that were laid out today: → Murder down roughly 20% → 54,000 violent felons arrested → 11,000 child victims located → 6 Most Wanted Fraudsters captured—tied to $2 BILLION in alleged fraud → Enough fentanyl seized to save countless American lives We have the calendars. We have the receipts. And most importantly—we have the results. The men and women of this FBI are working every day to crush violent crime and defend the homeland. -DKP🇺🇸”
