Lash Patel should already be investigated for threats he’s made. I’m sure they’ll find something if not criminal, at least disqualifying to lead the FBI

Before this is all over Kash Patel will need a lawyer.

The love of money is the root of all evil, and the greediest people on earth will soon be in charge of our country. Expect evil.

NOT CONFIRMED AND SHOULD NEVER BE CONSIDERED

Trump - "I only hire the best people". What Trump didn't verbalize when he made that statement was "I only hire the best people to further my own personal ambitions and to punish those who are my enemies."

Trump's pick has been in a few podcasts with known felons

[RaulFields-sz]

Patel also insanely calls Trump, "king Donald, " and calls President Biden, VP Harris, AG Garland, former AGs Holder and Barr, Speaker Emerita Pelosi, and other present and former high-ranking government officials "Government Gangsters." Patel has been lucky so far he's not been sued for defamation of character.

This man is not fit to be FBI director, he looks sick.

[jkarnes]

Trump doesn't need retribution from America, America needs retribution from Trump. We've been deneid justice for far too long.

How many ACTING appointments will be allowed without confirmation. They need to pass a bill that only confirmation can put someone in a position.

Trump picks will not last long. Trump ego is too much😊

[willielove]

That clown should be investigated to the fullest extent of the law, because he is a very dangerous Trump supporter and will do anything for Donald Trump.

[kewlglamma]

Only guilty people seek retribution...

You who else makes lists of people they don’t like?
