While onboarding and hiring over 40 AUSAs, NDTX has had a banner year. Our @AGToddBlanche has empowered us to fight crime! Compared to 2024, cases filed are up 50%. That means we are putting more and more bad guys behind bars to protect the 9 million North Texans under our charge. Our priorities are clear: fight violent crime, eliminate cartels, and prosecute fraudsters who steal from American taxpayers and harm Main Street Americans. @FBIDirectorKash @OIGatHHS @HSI_Dallas @FBIDallas @FBI @FDICgov @IRS_CI @USMarshalsHQ @ATFDallas @FBIDallas @DEADALLASDiv @DEAHQ @NDTXnews @SecretService @USPIS_HQ @TSA @StateDeptDSS @HSI_HQ @HSTaskForce @PADAGMcCotter @TxDPS @TXAG @OIGatHHS @SECGov @CFTC @DallasPD @fortworthpd @LubbockPolice @AmarilloPD @SanAngeloPolice @WichitaFallsPD @abilenepd @Potter_Sheriff @tarrantcountyso @DEAHOUSTONDiv @USDOL @SBAgov @DOJCrimDiv @USAttorneys @EmilyCovPA

It’s an all-of-government approach in Texas to protect our students and empower parents. #ProjectSafeSchools. More work to do! Glad to have teammates in this fight @NDTXnews @USAttyReitz @USAttorneys @TxDPS @TexasEd911 @TrueTexasTea @FBIDallas @HSI_Dallas @GovAbbottPress @KenPaxtonTX @AGToddBlanche @realmitchlittle @TeamBettencourt @Burrows4TX @realBrandonGill
A society that protects its children is a society worth having.
Here are a few clips from Tuesday's TX Senate Education Committee hearing on SB 571 - the Educator Misconduct bill that passed in 2025 following exposure of a serious abuse crisis in our public schools. The progress made under 571, in just months on the job, by IG Levi Fuller and his team is hard to describe.
God bless and keep IG Fuller and all who are boldly and tirelessly undertaking this dark and serious battle.
Thank you to all.
Great hearing.
Big hope for excellent 90th Legislation.
Keep turning the screws.

P.S. The "surprise" we teased didn't make the clips, but Sen. Bettencourt announced US Dist. Atty. Reitz was interested in helping. (We need Western and Eastern USAO, too!)
Civil enforcement is a key tool in the tool belt for recouping money lost to fraud, waste, and abuse. @NDTXnews @AAGShumate @USAO_EDTX team up to recoup $20 million related to allegations of billing for medically unnecessary services. @AGToddBlanche @OIGatHHS @SecKennedy @DrOzCMS

Today NDTX announced the indictment of 19 defendants for running an entrenched drug-trafficking and money laundering operation in Dallas. @TheJusticeDept @FBIDallas @DEADALLASDiv @IRS_CI @USAttorneys @NDTXnews @FBI @ChiefComeauxDPD @revenue_irs @DEATerryCole @FBIDirectorKash @DallasPD @AGToddBlanche
.@USAttyRaybould: “According to the allegations, these 19 defendants operated one of the most entrenched drug-trafficking networks in Dallas. This case reflects a very hard truth: when drug trafficking enters a neighborhood, that’s when freedom leaves it—and in this case, freedom didn’t just fade; it was forced out directly and deliberately by this criminal enterprise.”
