I’m a former FBI agent. Kash Patel’s problems go beyond his incompetence

Kash Patel, Angela McArdle, Clint Russell & Bret Weinstein

"We will go out and find the conspirators - not just in government, but in the media... we're going to come after the people in the media who lied about American citizens, who helped Joe Biden rig presidential elections... We're going to come after you. Whether it's criminally or civilly, we'll figure that out. But yeah, we're putting you all on notice, and Steve, this is why they hate us. This is why we're tyrannical. This is why we're dictators... Because we're actually going to use the Constitution to prosecute them for crimes they said we have always been guilty of but never have” Kash Patel, Trump’s half-witted pick to lead the FBI

The sycophantic Republican Senate must vote on the objectionable nomination & intimidating totalitarian POTUS Trump will just have to fire the worthy current FBI director Christopher Wray, before the nitwit geek, ‘elite’ Trump loyalist, weird ingenue & cheesy pseudo author takes over & destroys whatever woeful security we have. Yet who thought that the world would be led by demented gunslinging bellicose psychopaths & the egregious egomaniac emeritus’ hegemony will lead to maleficence, AI, plagues, detainees, nuclear war & the end of civilization? Hey, is this nihilistic twist of fate the way we want? Yow!
