FBI's Record 2025–26: Crime Stats the Media Won't Tell You

The Most Dangerous Man In America? (Ep. 2540) · Jun 23, 2026 News

The FBI's 2025–26 numbers are staggering: 20% drop in the national murder rate, 45,000 violent crime arrests, 24,450 criminal enterprises disrupted, 6,900 child victims located, and 8 of 10 most wanted fugitives captured. Bongino says critics who claim 'nothing is happening' are ignoring the largest documented crime reduction in modern American history.

Where this was said

$1.2 Billion Medicare Fraud Arrest

At 1:01:40 · chapter starts 59:40

The latest addition to the 'Nothing Is Happening File' is a major one: the arrest of the individual identified as the second most-wanted fraudster in America, allegedly the architect of a $1.2 billion Medicare fraud conspiracy. Bongino notes with pointed sarcasm that the Biden DOJ had plenty of bandwidth to arrest pro-lifers outside abortion clinics but somehow couldn't find this man while he fled the country with his money. The White House anti-fraud task force is credited with the bust. It's a data point, Bongino says — one of dozens that add up to a historically productive law enforcement year.

Why the Israel-Killed-Kirk Theory Doesn't Hold Up

#2535 - Andrew Wilson · Aug 5, 2026 News

The microphone-bomb theory fails on every physical front: no smoke, no ignition, mic on the wrong side of the wound. And the .30-06 rifle round used is extensively documented by the US Army — it does not always produce a through-and-through wound. Wilson argues this is a well-studied projectile with well-understood behavior.

#2535 - Andrew Wilson · Aug 5, 2026 News

The video is so blurry they initially think a female officer fired the fatal shots. They later learn a male officer did, after Ruiz allegedly pulled a knife and stabbed officers.
