If you haven't seen the recent Senate and House hearings featuring FBI Director Kask Patel you're missing out on some great entertainment.
Patel proved he was a puppet for Trump by gaslighting Congress with his pop-eyed denials of reality.
He was like a caged honey-badger every time he was asked a question by a Democrat. Republicans made it clear, they were giving Kash a pass because their glorious leader told them to.
What we know about one of Trump's principal puppets
- During Patel's time with the first Trump administration, he was involved in several notable controversies, largely related to his work as an aide for the House Intelligence Committee and his later roles in national security. He cemented his loyalty to Trump by being his mole and ferreting out Don the Con's enemies.
- After Trump's first term, Patel remained a vocal supporter, appearing frequently on right-wing media and serving on the board of the Trump Media & Technology Group.
- In his children's book Government Gangsters, Patel created a list of over 50 current and former government officials, including some of Trump's own appointees, whom he accused of being part of the "Deep State," aka Democrats and liberals.
He also wrote a three-part series of kids' books called The Plot Against the King.
- Establishing himself as a MAGA combatant who fiercely advocated Trump's lie that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump, Patel championed January 6 rioters as patriots and unfairly persecuted political prisoners.
- At the end of Trump's first presidency, when he was still a Pentagon official, he spread the crazy idea that Italian military satellites had been employed to turn Trump voters to Joe Biden votes in the 2020 election.
- Patel has been supportive of the looniest conspiracy theory in MAGA land: QAnon. To be clear, QAnon ideology has fueled attacks on democracy, inspired insurrectionists, and perpetrated some of the most dangerous falsehoods in modern politics.
- A lawsuit was filed on September 10, 2025, by three former senior FBI officials - Brian Driscoll, Steven Jensen, and Spencer Evans - against Patel and US Attorney General Pam Bondi, alleging wrongful termination based upon political motivations.
In Pate's distorted reality, Trump is a messianic figure, waging a covert war against unseen enemies. Patel has gladly played the patsy and has no intentions of carrying out his oath of office as long as Trump lives.
The fact that Patel is the head of the FBI shows what a dire state our government is in right now. Trump's MAGA minions have affected every branch in Congress...and beyond.
Seen today on social media: GOP Politics 101: Make shit up...make it scary...believe your own made-up story...scare other people with those stories...when called out...look a squirrel!
As it Stands, despite rumors Patel may be in some hot water with some Republicans, you can bet he will not be fired. One caveat: If he is fired, Trump will just give him a job somewhere else in the government...or he'll make up a new position for him.
