The deputy director stated the U.S. is “tearing apart the international drug trade infecting our communities.“
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino confirmed the progress the bureau is making against Venezuelan money laundering. A years-long investigation, begun in 2019 by the FBI’s Miami Field Office, has resulted in the indictments of two men in Florida last month. The two men were alleged to have ties to Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Wire transfer activity triggered Suspicious Activity Reports in the U.S. banking system.
Earlier this month, Director Patel stated, “Maduro isn’t just corrupt – he’s an indicted narcoterrorist dictator with a $50M DOJ bounty. Under my leadership, the FBI is choking off every dollar, every account, every enabler. America will never be a safe haven for his blood money.“
Deputy Director Bongino stated, “We are tearing apart the international drug trade infecting our communities, piece by piece, tendril by tendril.“
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For Director Patel and Deputy Director Bongino as they seek to prevent the use of the U.S. banking system for money laundering by Venezuelan drug traffickers.
- For FBI officials and agents as they investigate and gather evidence to prosecute narcoterrorists.
