Last week, Kash Patel was confirmed as FBI director, and now Dan Bongino, a right-wing conspiracy theorist, has been appointed as his number two. Bongino has zero experience at the FBI, which is unprecedented for a deputy director. This position has access to sensitive operations, including surveillance and collaboration with allied intelligence agencies. Bongino is known for pushing conspiracy theories, spreading COVID disinformation, and denying Russian interference. He's likely to focus on political payback rather than priorities like stopping fentanyl traffickers, murderers, and violent criminals. As Bongino himself said, "I don't want to move on."

Speaker 1 expressed confusion over an FBI tweet regarding the January 6 pipe bomb investigation, the Supreme Court leak, and cocaine found at the White House, questioning the intended audience. Speaker 1 reacted to an exchange between Senator Patty Murray and FBI Director Kash Patel regarding the FBI's budget request, stating that they cringed at the clip and felt sorry for Patel. They hope the career people are able to support the director and the deputy director. Speaker 1 stated that nothing in the lives or careers of the new director and deputy director gives them confidence that they know anything about leading an organization like the FBI, and so they would have serious doubts. They hope the new leaders will listen to the advice of experienced FBI personnel.

We're seeing a unified effort across President Trump's national security team and the Department of Homeland Security to ensure a safe, free, and prosperous society for Americans. Over 21 million people have crossed our borders illegally under the Biden administration, many unvetted. For example, over 4,000 people from Central Asia, affiliated with an ISIS network, crossed our borders. Hundreds were identified as known terrorists or associated with known terrorists. This information was provided to the Biden administration, yet only a fraction of those arrested were deported or remained in custody; the rest were released into our country. We're working with the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI to keep Americans safe. Our counterterrorism center is focused on vetting to identify and remove those who pose a threat. The president's designation of cartels as foreign terrorist organizations is crucial, especially with their tactics mirroring those of Islamist terrorists. Our mission is clear: to keep the American people safe.

The speaker states that preventing attacks in major cities is the top priority, along with addressing cyber and counterintelligence threats. They emphasize the danger posed by individuals entering the country through both the southern and northern borders who intend to cause harm. FBI teams are actively working with HSI and ERO to remove these individuals while preventing and investigating terror attacks. The speaker asserts the FBI will investigate incidents as terror attacks based on available information, such as when someone throws an incendiary device while screaming specific words, and will not engage in "word games" or euphemisms. They are investigating such incidents as targeted violence and terror attacks based on the available information.

There's a lot of skepticism within the FBI regarding Dan Bongino's appointment, although some within the Bureau are supportive of Trump. Bongino had a falling out with Kyle Serf, a former FBI agent and podcaster close to Kash Patel. Patel's foundation had previously paid Serf. The disagreement stemmed from Bongino's acceptance of the premise that the Mar-a-Lago search was mishandled. Serf, examining the documents, argued it was standard procedure. Despite Bongino being instrumental in connecting Serf with Patel, they clashed over basic facts, particularly regarding the Mar-a-Lago search. Bongino's rhetoric and apparent disregard for facts, coupled with recent internal turmoil, isn't helping the FBI's current situation.

Over 4,000 individuals from Central Asia crossed our borders using an ISIS-affiliated network. Our counterterrorism center identified hundreds as known terrorists or associates and alerted the Biden administration. In 2024, over a hundred were arrested, but only eight were deported or remained in custody, while the rest were released into our country. We must stay focused, collaborating with the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI to ensure American safety. Our counterterrorism center aims to be the primary source for vetting to identify and remove threats. The president's designation of cartels as foreign terrorist organizations aligns with this, especially given their adoption of tactics mirroring Islamist terrorists. Our mission is to protect Americans, and I'm honored to contribute to President Trump's team in achieving this goal.

So, Kash Patel was tragically confirmed as FBI director, and now Dan Bongino, a right-wing conspiracy theorist with zero FBI experience, has been appointed as his number two. This is alarming because the deputy director position requires someone with extensive experience, character, and trust, especially given their access to sensitive operations and collaboration with allied intelligence agencies. Bongino is known for pushing conspiracy theories, like the big lie about the 2020 election, and spreading COVID disinformation. Instead of focusing on critical issues like fentanyl trafficking and violent crime, he's likely to prioritize political vendettas. As Bongino himself said, he doesn't want to move on, which makes him completely unsuited to serve the American people's priorities.

I questioned Mr. Patel's fitness to be FBI director, given his association with individuals convicted of assaulting police officers and profiting from it. I asked him to look at the Capitol Police officers present and explain why he is proud of what he did. I responded that I have never accepted violence against law enforcement. I have worked with law enforcement and never glorified violence against them. I never made a single dime out of violence against law enforcement. I also questioned whether Mr. Patel had claimed that Donald Trump declassified all the documents at Mar-a-Lago and whether he considered the potential risks to sources before advocating for declassification. I responded that President Trump issued a declassification order to a large number of documents. It was the responsible thing to do and no one died. I support following the law and providing whatever information the law requires.

Under President Trump, illegal migrant "gotaways" have decreased dramatically, with daily averages falling from over 1,800 under Biden to just 32. ICE has also arrested illegal alien gang members, but deportation efforts face resistance due to leaked memos. The source of one leak, potentially within the FBI, is under investigation and will be prosecuted if found. A House Judiciary subcommittee hearing addressed reining in the administrative state, criticizing Democrats for focusing on Elon Musk instead of overregulation. We're the party of common sense, while Democrats defend crazy spending and policies. We will fight in court for access to information, because the American people deserve to know the truth. Kash Patel, who exposed the Russia investigation "baloney," should be the next FBI director.

A recent memo from the acting FBI director, Brian Driscoll, revealed a list of FBI agents involved in the January 6th investigation, ordered by the deputy attorney general. This situation is unprecedented, as incoming administrations typically do not exert political control over the FBI. The memo indicates a potential purge of experienced agents, including those overseeing national security and criminal investigations, many of whom have been linked to cases that Donald Trump opposed. Additionally, political operatives have been placed in the FBI director's office, raising concerns about their influence on ongoing decisions. The implications of these changes could significantly impact the FBI's operations and integrity.

The speaker is leading the intelligence community to end weaponization and politicization, building a lean and effective organization. Following the designation of cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, the National Counterterrorism Center is prioritizing terrorists and gang members entering the country, working with the DEA, DHS, and FBI. Recently, 700 alien terrorists with ties to MS-13 and the Sinaloa cartel were found, and almost 600 individuals with ties to other terrorists who illegally crossed the border and claimed asylum were identified. The ODNI has been reduced by 25%, and a human capital office, allegedly a slush fund for DEI initiatives, was shut down, saving $150 million. An additional $2.6 billion in savings will be announced from other programs and contracts. Three criminal referrals were sent for illegal leaks of classified intelligence, with 11 more under investigation. Sixty-seven security clearances have been revoked. Declassification of documents related to the JFK assassination continues, with more coming for the assassinations of Senator Kennedy and MLK. Investigations continue into election integrity, FISA abuses, and Crossfire Hurricane.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche welcomed attendees to the Department of Justice, highlighting President Trump's upcoming address. Blanche praised Trump's resilience amidst media attacks and legal challenges, stating he was resolved to fight for the American people. Blanche outlined the DOJ's actions since January 20th, including securing custody of 29 cartel leaders from Mexico, including Rafael Quintero, responsible for the murder of DEA agent Kiki Camarena. MS-13 and other cartels have been designated as foreign terrorist organizations, enabling terrorism charges against members. Over 6,600 criminal cases have been filed against illegal aliens in border districts. Task forces are being established to enforce immigration laws and pursue transnational criminal organizations. The DOJ will seek the death penalty for those who murder law enforcement officers. Investigations are underway regarding anti-Semitism on college campuses, including Columbia University, with a focus on material support for terrorism. Weaponization inquiries are ongoing, but under General Bondi, the weaponization has stopped. The department's focus is now squarely on keeping the American people safe.

James Comey is accused of making a death threat against Donald Trump by posting a photo of seashells arranged to read "86 47," which allegedly means "kill Trump." Trump stated Comey knew what it meant and called him a "dirty cop." Tulsi Gabbard believes Comey should be jailed for issuing a call to assassinate the president. The speaker claims Democrats want Trump killed, citing Comey's post, Benny Thompson's legislation to deny Trump Secret Service protection, and the Biden administration restricting Trump's protection. The speaker believes Comey spied on Trump during the Obama administration and that Bill Barr should have prosecuted him. The speaker suggests the FBI should be defunded and its powers curtailed, and a separate entity reporting to the President should investigate the FBI and DOJ. The speaker also suggests investigating the Biden crime family and censorship of Americans. The speaker believes deep state agencies like the FBI and IRS target Americans based on political beliefs and should be shut down.

FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino reacted to a story about alleged Chinese interference in the 2020 election. According to declassified documents provided to Congress, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) may have attempted to help Joe Biden get elected by manufacturing fake driver's licenses to facilitate fraudulent mail-in ballots. Patel stated the allegations were substantiated but abruptly recalled and never disclosed to the public. Former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe stated in 2021 that the People's Republic of China sought to influence the 2020 US federal elections. Patel and Bongino claim the prior FBI leadership under Chris Wray intentionally kept this evidence from the public. They stated that while it's not confirmed China swung the election, they tried, and the public should have been informed, especially since it was repeatedly claimed there was no foreign interference. Patel and Bongino are committing to making the evidence public.

Last week, Kash Patel was confirmed as FBI director, and now Dan Bongino, a right-wing conspiracy theorist and podcaster, has been appointed as his number two. Bongino has zero experience at the FBI, and this deputy director position has always been held by a long-term veteran of the bureau for over a hundred years, because this person has access to sensitive operations, including surveillance and working with our allies' intelligence agencies. Bongino is known for pushing conspiracy theories, like the big lie that Donald Trump won the 2020 election. He's also a COVID disinformation super spreader and a Russia denier. Instead of focusing on fentanyl traffickers, murderers, and violent criminals, he's going to be focused on the political vendettas of Donald Trump, because he doesn't want to move on.

Kash Patel is unqualified to be FBI director, having previously suggested shutting down FBI headquarters to open a museum for conspiracy theories. His rise reflects a troubling trend of rewarding sycophants. Regarding January 6 pardons, there’s deep concern about pardoning individuals who violently attacked police and tried to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. This contradicts the public's desire for action against crime, not political revenge. As for potential prosecutions of January 6 committee members, there's pride in their oversight work, making preemptive pardons unnecessary. Setting a precedent for blanket pardons at the end of an administration is also undesirable. This message has been communicated to President Biden both publicly and privately.

The speaker outlines goals for the FBI within the next year. They want the FBI to play a key role in deporting hundreds of thousands of violent criminals and thwart multiple terror plots daily. The speaker emphasizes the need for a top-notch counterintelligence operation to combat the threat of the Chinese Communist Party. They also want action taken on the drone threat, with resources being allocated to address it. The speaker hopes to report to the American people that, with the current leadership, the murder rate is at a historic low, crime rates have decreased, the border is sealed, and the FBI contributed to these achievements.

The Trump administration has executed a significant purge at the FBI, dismissing all six senior executives and multiple heads of field offices. This includes the leader of the Washington DC office, which was involved in prosecuting Trump, and several federal prosecutors linked to the January 6 investigations. These officials are career law enforcement professionals, not political appointees, and their removal could severely impact the FBI's ability to address terrorism and crime nationwide. Additionally, the acting deputy attorney general has requested a list of FBI employees involved in January 6 cases, affecting personnel across various field offices. This upheaval leaves local offices in disarray and raises concerns about the future of federal law enforcement.

Kash Patel is set to lead the FBI and plans significant changes. First, all agents will return to wearing trench coats and carrying revolvers. Current plans to assassinate Donald Trump are canceled, and Melania's sundresses from the Mar-a-Lago raid must be returned. Agents will need written requests before grooming domestic terrorists, and the X-Files will be reopened. New applicants must weigh under 400 pounds, and the position for quadriplegic black lesbian representation is eliminated. All wiretaps at Mar-a-Lago will be removed, and agents are now required to arrest criminals. Lastly, all work retreats to Epstein Island are canceled. What changes do you hope to see at the FBI? Let us know in the comments.

John Nance and Hogan DeGidley discuss a recent FBI case and press conference. Patel’s FBI has been extremely transparent, and that transparency will continue to reassure the American people that information regarding this subject will flow as appropriate without jeopardizing the prosecution of the case. A key takeaway is the suggestion that forensic evidence could be the linchpin to identifying the suspect, despite millions of data lines to review; pieces such as DNA or a fingerprint related to the pipe bombs themselves may have been the actual “smoking gun.” There is emphasis on teamwork and the idea that information had been left to collect dust rather than being newly uncovered. AG Merrick Garland’s remarks are cited, highlighting that the evidence leading to the arrest had been sitting at the FBI for years. The FBI, along with US Attorney Piro and prosecutors, worked tirelessly for months sifting through evidence that had been at the FBI with the Biden administration for four years. The point is made that there was no new tip or new witness, just diligent police work and prosecutorial effort. Hogan DeGidley asks why the case wasn’t cracked during President Biden’s four years in office. The response suggests that it either couldn’t be done or wouldn’t be done, and that the American people suffered as a result. It is stated that this did not come from new evidence but from information already in the bureau and departments being sifted through. The discussion frames the case as a win for the administration, the FBI, and the DOJ, and a step toward transparency, accountability, and justice. They note that the attackers placed pipe bombs at both the RNC and DNC locations; the motives remain unknown, and questions about a possible Antifa link or other theories are mentioned as preliminary. Cash Patel is quoted as saying the FBI has committed to being the most transparent law enforcement operation in U.S. history while ensuring accountability in the courts with U.S. Attorneys and prosecutors. The aim is to divulge information when prudent and constitutionally permissible, safeguarding the case, to secure the nation’s capital and allow Americans to live in safe, secure neighborhoods. This is attributed to leadership from the FBI Washington Field Office. John Nance comments that Patel is doing a very good job and that the director’s social-media transparency is notable. He expresses encouragement about the FBI’s reform efforts and notes that the White House press narrative around January 6 is seen as misaligned with the pipe-bomb case. The arrest took place in Woodbridge, Virginia, a wealthy DMV suburb, prompting remarks about why the dots weren’t connected sooner.

The FBI reviewed Jeffrey Epstein's death and found no incriminating client list. The Attorney General had stated she had the list on her desk. However, she was referring to all paperwork related to Epstein's crimes. The Department of Justice and FBI are committed to ensuring bad people are put behind bars. "Operation Summer Heat" is trending the murder rate in the lowest direction in United States history. Emphasis on violent crime has led to the arrest of 14,000 violent criminals, a 62% increase from last year. An exhaustive review was promised and completed. For further details, refer to the Department of Justice.

Kash Patel is now the FBI director, a positive development. Dan Bongino will be the deputy director, assisting Patel. Bongino has highlighted abuses of the deep state and the FBI and has a storied law enforcement career, making him a near-perfect fit. He will run the FBI's day-to-day operations under Patel. The question is whether Patel can save the FBI, which has been corrupted. The FBI raided President Trump's home and gave the speaker a subpoena, which they claim is abusive. The FBI has been targeting the opposition to the deep state and the democratic left machine, subverting the rule of law and the constitutional republic. The issue is whether the FBI can be relied upon to uphold the rule of law and advance the public interest.
