FBI Director Kash Patel fired back at liberal attacks during a Senate hearing this week, revealing he personally experienced political targeting under Biden’s weaponized Justice Department. “You’re looking at him,” Patel declared when asked about victims of FBI abuse, slamming Democrat attempts to paint him as unfit for leadership.
The conservative leader detailed how Biden’s FBI harassed him with bogus investigations when he exposed deep state corruption. “They came after me for telling the truth about the Russia hoax,” Patel said, referencing his role uncovering FBI malfeasance in the Trump-Russia probe. Now he’s dismantling the “rotten system” that targeted patriots.
Patel vowed to purge partisan activists embedded in the Bureau, promising “accountability for those who betrayed their oath.” He’s already fired three senior officials tied to the Crossfire Hurricane scandal and reassigned dozens of agents accused of political spying. “Bad apples don’t belong in the FBI,” he stated.
Democrats erupted when Patel confirmed he’s investigating Biden family foreign deals uncovered in Hunter Biden’s laptop. Senator Patty Murray called it a “MAGA stunt,” but Patel shot back: “Following evidence isn’t partisan. Protecting criminals is.”
President Trump praised Patel’s “tough patriot” stance, saying he’s “draining the swamp Christopher Wray left behind.” Since taking over, Patel ended the FBI’s outreach programs with far-left groups and redirected resources to combat border cartels and anti-police riots.
“They hate him because he’s effective,” said House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan. While liberals whine about “norms,” Patel arrested 23 MS-13 leaders last month and seized enough fentanyl to kill 10 million Americans. Crime rates dropped 12% in cities where he deployed FBI task forces.
Patel promised more seismic reforms: “We’ll prosecute BLM rioters who burned cities and the bureaucrats who let illegal aliens vanish into our neighborhoods.” His agents recently busted a human trafficking ring smuggling Chinese nationals across the Mexico border.
The director’s approval rating hits 68% in red states as conservatives cheer his no-nonsense approach. “Finally, someone with guts to crush the deep state,” said a Texas sheriff. With midterms approaching, Patel’s war on woke corruption could redefine law enforcement for a generation.
