      Honestly?

      I think it’ll be the opposite, an immediate look of relief. He might even look normal.

      It won’t be unique to Kash, aside from Stephen Miller I don’t think any of them are actually enjoying this.

        Yeah, I think a lot of them didn’t expect these jobs to require actual work. They probably realized they had it better when they were just spewing shit on their podcasts. Now the press is on their asses, reporting any corrupt and weird shit they do.

    “Mr. Patel, I think you’re not going to be around long. I think this might be your last full oversight hearing,” Booker said. “Because as much as you supplicate yourself to the will of Donald Trump and not the constitution of the United States of America, Donald Trump has shown us in his first term, and in this term, he is not loyal to people like you. He will cut you loose.”

      Patel wants to keep using FBI coffers for perks though. He’s reportedly flying all over the place on FBI jets, made an FBI SWAT team act as a security detail for his girlfriend, etc.

    The grift and corruption might have come to attention with Kash Patel, but instead of throwing one out, they should put the whole Trump mafia behind bars where they belong.

    B-but, but… The Burn Bags??? The grand jury in Florida??? The conspiracy against rights???

    Kash gotta stick around to cover for that stuff, right?

    I remember hearing that Trump is trying to keep people around for one year to see how they do. I wouldn’t be surprised if Hegseth isn’t going to be around much longer in his current position.
