The FBI was weaponized in horrifying ways during Joe Biden’s Presidency.
The Trump administration is now turning the page.
And Kash Patel’s FBI launched a manhunt for a scary fugitive whose identity will shock you.
New FBI Top 10 Most Wanted
Newly-minted FBI Director Kash Patel is trying to burnish the image of the bureau.
Instead of focusing on political witch hunts, Patel said that he would tell the agents under his leadership to “go be cops.”
The entire purpose of the FBI was to catch criminals who travel across state lines, serve as secret police by surveilling parents who protest at school board meetings.
And the FBI just added a new fugitive to the Top 10 Most Wanted List.
Former Olympic snowboarder Ryan Wedding is wanted in connection with international drug trafficking and alleged murder.
The FBI released in a statement: “Former Olympic snowboarder and Canadian national, Ryan Wedding, 43, has been added to the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list. . .Ryan Wedding, whose aliases include ‘El Jefe,’ ‘Giant,’ ‘Public Enemy,’ ‘James Conrad King,’ and ‘Jesse King,’ was born in Thunder Bay, Canada, and competed in the Giant Slalom snowboarding competition during the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah. At present, Wedding is wanted for allegedly running a transnational drug trafficking network that routinely shipped hundreds of kilograms of cocaine from Colombia, through Mexico and Southern California, to Canada and other locations in the United States, and for orchestrating multiple murders and an attempted murder in furtherance of these drug crimes.”
The FBI announced that there is a $10 million reward for Wedding.
From snowboarding to trafficking – FBI launches a manhunt for former Olympian
Akil Davis, the Assistant Director of the FBI’s Los Angeles Field Office, said in a statement, “Wedding went from shredding powder on the slopes at the Olympics to distributing powder cocaine on the streets of U.S. cities and in his native Canada. . .The alleged murders of his competitors make Wedding a very dangerous man, and his addition to the list of Ten Most Wanted Fugitives, coupled with a major reward offer by the State Department, will make the public our partner so that we can catch up with him before he puts anyone else in danger.”
Wedding’s life seems to be a mystery after competing in the 2002 Winter Olympics.
In 2006, he was investigated for growing large amounts of marijuana, but was never charged.
In 2010, he was charged with attempting to buy cocaine from an undercover officer in 2008, and was sentenced to four years in prison.
It has seemingly been all downhill since then.
The FBI added: “In June 2024, Wedding and his second-in-command Andrew Clark, 34, also Canadian, were charged in an indictment out of the Central District of California with running a continuing criminal enterprise; committing murder in connection with a continuing criminal enterprise and assorted drug crimes; and conspiring to possess, distribute, and export cocaine. Clark, who was arrested last October by Mexican authorities, was among the 29 fugitives whom Attorney General Pamela Bondi announced had arrived in the United States from Mexico last week.”
This is another reason why the southern border needs to be secured.
Illegal immigration is only part of the problem.
As it stands, it is too easy for drug traffickers to go back and forth between the United States and Mexico.
The Trump administration has used the threat of tariffs to spur the Mexican government into action and help secure the border.
