    It's pretty obvious that this Trump guy doesn't really care about anyone's ability to do their job, and help the American people. It's been said that loyalty is the number one criteria, but clearly that is second to overlooking Donald Trump's crimes.

    Calling this Patel guy a hack is doing a disservice to hacks.

    Good game, America.



    President-elect Donald Trump said Saturday that he intends to nominate Kash Patel to serve as FBI director, in an extraordinary announcement that once in office Trump would move to replace the current director, Christopher Wray, before his term expires.

    Trump’s interest in Patel speaks to his urge to fill top law enforcement and intelligence positions with supporters who may be open to carrying out his demands for specific investigations as well as inoculating the president against possible future probes.

    Patel rose to prominence within Trump’s orbit in 2018, when he served as an aide to Rep. Devin Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee at the time. Patel played a key role in Nunes’ efforts to discredit the FBI’s Russia investigation into the Trump campaign, including a controversial classified memo that alleged FBI abuses of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrants on Trump advisers.

    can you imagine being senior fbi staff maybe 2 - 4 years from being vested for retirement?

    entire criminal gangs and prosecutions will be let go. Proud boys, they are good people, no reason to investigate them.

    professionals throughout the fed gubmnt have to be wigging out right now

    He might be a hack, but he is definitely better than Comey

    You cannot find a more loyal, ask no questions, toady for trump if you tried. If he swears an oath to the Constitution he is lying.

    Remember when he said he was there when trump verbally declassified all those documents found at MAL? Then had to take the 5th in front of the grand jury when questioned about it?

    Yay, the Director of the FBI having to take the 5th when questioned about espionage. Great pick
