Patel has extensive experience as a public defender, federal prosecutor, House Intelligence Committee counsel, National Security Council member and chief of staff at the Pentagon.
When Ronald Reagan sought to reshape the federal government nearly a half century ago, he and his team adopted a simple philosophy: personnel is policy. In other words, the people you hire, and fire, will make a difference.
President-elect Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the FBI, Kash Patel, subscribes to a similar prescription for the nation’s premier law enforcement agency, which has lost significant trust from the American people over a decade of scandal and failure.
From his time as chief investigative counsel at the House Intelligence Committee, where he unraveled the FBI’s bogus Russia collusion narrative, to his best-selling book “Government Gangsters” where he chronicled the weaponization of law enforcement against Trump and conservatives, Patel has laid out clear plans on how to re-focus the bureau on its core missions of law enforcement and intelligence gathering and away from politics.
That job, he insists, begins by cleaning house throughout the FBI’s several layers of leadership that became infected with ideologies like Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and created a culture where parents and traditional Catholics were viewed as extremist threats and support for Trump and the Second Amendment were deemed reasons to review an employee’s security clearance.
He should fire about 90% of them since they don’t have to investigate Trump anymore.
I really like Kash Patel. I think he will do a wonderful job for Trump and America!!!
