The Trump administration disbanded Task Force KleptoCapture, shifting focus to drug cartels and espionage.

The Trump administration's Justice Department has disbanded the Biden-era Task Force KleptoCapture, which aimed to seize assets from Russian oligarchs in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Attorney General Pam Bondi stated that resources will now focus on combating drug cartels and international gangs. This move is part of a broader shift in priorities, including the discontinuation of the Foreign Influence Task Force, as the administration emphasizes traditional espionage over registration violations under the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
