Of all the nominations made by incoming President Donald Trump, few are more important than naming Kash Patel to lead the FBI. The bureau has become a den of corruption focused on protecting itself and the Democratic Party. From targeting parents at school board meetings to raiding Mar-a-Lago, an overhaul is needed, and accountability must be brought to those who weaponized the agency.
Patel, who is more than qualified for the position, is just the man to accomplish that. He was instrumental in uncovering the Russian collusion hoax and will not pull any punches to “protect the shield.” Naturally, that’s making all the right people upset. As RedState reported, John Bolton compared Patel to a Soviet secret police chief, urging the Senate to reject his nomination.
There’s something not just gross but outright psychopathic about the arrogance with which so many in Washington carry themselves. Much like Liz Cheney, John Bolton’s career is one denoted by abject failure. These people hold no moral high ground nor do they have any actual expertise. On the contrary, if they had any shame, they’d sink into the background, never to be heard from again.
Instead, the Cheneys and Boltons of the world continue to speak as authorities about supposed “norms” that have led to nothing but death and destruction. That wasn’t lost on JD Vance, who delivered the perfect response.
