First….
The last time Trump has someone ‘fired’ for political reasons?
It was One Andrew McCabe, who was the Acting FBI Director …..
Things ended up in Federal Court , and ended up costing the American taxpayers money to UNDO Trump’s actions….
They had to RE-HIRE McCabe, pay his legal fee’s, back pay, pension and erase his termination paper work…..
Second ….
Trump has just announced his pick to replace Chris Wray, the FBI Director HE picked back after he fired James Comey from the top FBI spot in his first term….(Will Wray make things easy?)
That choice is Kash Patel...
Katel’s announced job will be to ‘shake up’ the top American Federal Law Enforcement agency that Donald Trump HAS been afraid of and fighting with for checking on him, and his businesses and his foreign contacts…
The media says the FBI staff is in ‘shock and worried’….
Republican malcontents are ALL for the guy…..Others are NOT…
The US Federal Bureau of Investigation has 35,000 employee’s with a budget of over NINE Billion Dollars…
Those employee’s are spread all over the planet….Kash Petal is NOT gonna be ‘tearing the place up’…
He don’t even pay the rent and salaries….Congress does…Not Trump….
Kash Patel IS going to to face the McCabe case when , or if he gets to sit before the Senate….
I’m sure EVERY senior FBI agent has their OWN lawyer who KNOWS the McCabe case history and results BY HEART…..
Hmmmm?
WAIT….
….
President-elect Trump’s decision to nominate Kash Patel to serve as FBI director has sparked mixed reactions from lawmakers and former officials, with Republicans praising the controversial pick.
“It’s a terrible development for the men and women of the FBI and also for the nation that depends on a highly functioning professional independent Federal Bureau of Investigation,” former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe said on CNN Saturday night.
“The fact that Kash Patel is profoundly unqualified for this job is not even like a matter for debate. So I think what we should, what we should really be thinking about right now is what does this signal in terms of Donald Trump’s intent for the FBI.”
He later added that Patel’s leadership would “disrupt,” “dismantle” and “distract” the agency. While McCabe condemned Trump’s choice, others applauded the pick.
“Kash is America’s choice as Director of the FBI. Accountability is coming. Congratulations and well deserved,” Mike Flynn, who for a brief stint served as Trump’s National Security Advisor, posted on X.
Texas Congressman Troy E. Nichols (R) called Patel an “excellent pick” while former Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz (R), who withdrew his name from consideration for the attorney general post, also spoke in favor of Patel’s leadership….
…
However, Patel still has to face a confirmation hearing with the Senate before his position is finalized….
Note….
Patel was floated by Trump to be the deputy director of the FBI in early 2021 in addition to the CIA. This faced resistance from others. Attorney General William Barr wrote in his memoir that Patel would be the FBI director only “over his dead body”.[37]

Thed ironic thing with Patel, who grew up about 8 miles from me, is he’s actually semi-qualified to hold the FBI, DNI or Any High level National Sec job, ABSENT the POLITICAL conversion….
He’s been there….
