Federal Bureau of Investigation, also known as FBI, is a state-owned entity headquartered in the US, founded in 1908 and employing approximately 9,430 individuals. The agency's primary function is law enforcement, serving as the US domestic national crime agency.
On April 25, 2026, FBI Director Kash Patel engaged in a heated exchange with an NBC News reporter during a press conference regarding a $250 million defamation lawsuit against The Atlantic magazine and its staff writer Sarah Fitzpatrick. The lawsuit targets the publication over an investigative report, which the journalist involved continues to defend. Earlier, on April 24, 2026, security agencies from 10 countries, including the Department of Justice, National Security Agency, and the NCSC, issued a joint advisory titled “Defending against China-nexus covert networks of compromised devices.” This advisory warned that Chinese state-sponsored threat actors are using botnets of compromised IoT and SOHO devices at scale to steal data and disrupt activities. Separately, a report published on April 24, 2026, revisited the 1977 incident where hair samples purportedly from Bigfoot were sent to the FBI for testing, bringing a unique historical inquiry into the agency's records.
