I was trying to figure out why Kash Patel had thrown a Jan 6-er under the bus in a bid to keep his job. But I think I see now lmao . . . .
This is one republican Trump likely won't be pardoning.

Like wise, Trump is doing one illegal ICE, CBP and National Guard occupation after the other.
I see each and every soldier following those illegal, immoral, wasteful orders just like an armed burglar breaking into people's homes and vehicles (while taunting all by standers)
While I can agree its illegal to unalive a storm trooper, much like Luigi and that health care ghoul its hard to have a single shred of sadness for dead storm troopers killed while actively following illegal immoral orders.
See, I tagged this all #DumbNews, because this was all a dumb and painfully stupid situation.
Right on time here comes Kash Patel is here to make sure we all know just how seriously this administration takes this sad situation.
FBI Director Kash Patel Waived Polygraph Security Screening for Dan Bongino, Two Other Senior Staff
---
As the FBI’s deputy director, Bongino receives some of the country’s most sensitive secrets, including the President’s Daily Brief. His ascent to that position without passing a standard bureau background check is unprecedented, insiders say.

Either you support the release of the Epstein files or you support child sex trafficking and pedophilia.
There’s no middle ground.
And those who continue to work to cover up for the people named in the Epstein files are also complicit in the sex crimes that were committed.

Top ofcls met in the White House #SituationRoom on Wednesday with Rep #LaurenBoebert (R-CO) who is backing an effort to force a House vote on whether to demand the release of the files.
She was *summoned* to sit down with top #DOJ & #FBI ofcls, acc/to 2 people familiar with the matter. One of the people said the session included AG #PamBondi & FBI Dir #KashPatel.

The #FBI forced out a senior official overseeing aviation shortly after #KashPatel grew outraged about revelations of his PUBLICLY-AVAILABLE jet logs indicating he’d flown to see his musician girlfriend perform….
Steven Palmer, a 27-year veteran of the FBI, became the 3rd head of the critical incident response group—which includes FBI pilots—to be fired or removed in Patel’s short regime, adding to a year filled with retributive terminations.

Continuous Turnover
Palmer stepped into the role of acting leader of the critical incident response group [CIRG] in August when the prior chief was fired. That predecessor, Brian Driscoll, is now suing the admin with other ousted #FBI officials who say they were targeted for lacking loyalty to #Trump.
Wes Wheeler led the group until he was told to resign in March, along with numerous other leaders at FBI headquarters & Quantico.
#NationalSecurity #ShitShow #KashPatel #Trump #law #idiocracy
The #FBI’s leadership page was updated to show Devin Kowalski, previously special agent in charge of the FBI’s San Juan branch, is now running CIRG. Kowalski had been appointed to take over as permanent head of CIRG before the jet controversy, but Palmer was planning to stay on [as] his deputy….
The head of the CIRG team has oversight of thousands of agents & analysts specialized in handling dangerous threats, such as hostage rescues, & safety at major events….
Palmer was told he needed to immediately resign or be fired, which…was at least partially connected to #KashPatel’s fury over the negative media cycle on his personal travel.
Palmer’s position included supervising the #FBI’s aviation units, but Patel’s flight schedule was readily traceable through online tracking services & he reposted photos of himself with Wilkins at the event on his personal X account.
People familiar with the matter…were baffled as to why Patel might’ve blamed Palmer….

#KashPatel was angered this week by social media posts & news stories calling attention to his use of an FBI jet that arrived in State College, Pennsylvania, where his 26yr-old girlfriend, country music artist Alexis Wilkins, sang the national anthem at a wrestling match….

the #FBI is now officially visiting the homes of people spotted at protests like #NoKings, #ICE, etc.
it boggles the mind that there are people at #protests in the US who, upon finding #FBI agents at their door asking “do you have a few minutes to talk about the protests?” answer with anything other than “do you have a warrant?” followed by a polite request that they leave your property.
this isn’t complicated. you need to shut the fuck up. the #5thAmendment exists for a reason. shutting the fuck up cannot be used against you, for any reason, ever. not shutting the fuck up will never help you. it can only hurt you.
any false statement to the FBI can be charged as a crime. even if you just forgot. even if you mix up the order of events. even if you tell the truth but the agents find another person whose story contradicts yours. even if you tell the truth but the agents misremember what you said (!!!).
talking to the FBI is much more legally perilous than talking to the police (and you shouldn’t do that either). talking to Kash Patel's FBI is far more perilous than talking to the old FBI.
i know it’s hard. you want to be helpful. you think if you stay silent they'll find you suspicious. you want to explain yourself. it’s a very natural human thing and that’s exactly what they’re going to use against you. so here’s a helpful script you can follow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqo5RYOp4nQ
literally every single lawyer in the united states will tell you exactly what i’m telling you now. tell a friend. tell all your friends. tell random people you see on the street.
and shut. the. fuck. up.
don't be like this guy, who helpfully stepped out of his house to chat with the FBI outside the range of audio recording for most of an hour: https://www.kenklippenstein.com/p/video-fbi-agents-visit-anti-ice-protester
