Patel is unqualified to be in the FBI. Patel is a Youtuber that spreads lies. Patel should not be in charge of the FBI.
Where is justice for this horrible corrupt government?

Wasn’t Trump supposed to “drain the swamp”?
Wasn’t he supposed to get rid of all the “wasteful” spending?
I envy Republican politicians. They truly have the most boneheaded, brainless, and impressionable electorate in history. You can spend millions of their tax dollars on taking flights with your girlfriend to professional fights, give military contracts to your son’s company (that launders money back to you), and so much more, and they’ll eat it up like the stupid pigs they are.
If you have a humiliation fetish, look no further than Trump’s electorate. They vote the same way every time, and every time, their healthcare gets cut, their groceries skyrocket in price, and their schools crumble.
I used to sympathize with these people, but now? They can rot. They brought this on all of us, including themselves, all because of racism.

It’s bad enough he has to get armored vehicles to ride around in . But what about America first ? Why not a ford or gm or even whatever Chrysler is now ? Why bmw ?

Criminal. The FBI is unfortunately just not legitimate anymore. They don’t deserve respect, deference, or even recognition of authority until they clean themselves up.

Nobody’s mentioning that our Government agencies always buy American! That’s why they have Fords and Chevys instead of BMW’s.

Appointed by Trump:
„How Kash Patel Ordered Himself a New Fleet of BMWs With FBI Money“
„This is yet another instance of Patel’s questionable use of taxpayer funds for his own personal benefit. In late October, Patel was caught using a $60 million government jet to visit his girlfriend, country singer Alexis Wilkins, at a wrestling event at Penn State before using it to fly back to her home in Nashville.
There was also the jacket fiasco, in which Patel wouldn’t even get off a plane to investigate the murder of his friend Charlie Kirk until someone got him a special FBI raid jacket—his specific size, and with all the right patches on it. He ended up taking a jacket from a female agent and patches from various other agents.
Patel is moving like some kind of celebrity when the two most notable events of his tenure are the failure to quickly find and detain Charlie Kirk’s shooter and the Brown University shooter. Both instances saw Patel’s FBI go days with no leads until independent citizens came forward, leading to bipartisan questioning over Patel’s competence.“
He has been watching Slow Horses and is jealous of MI5 having better vehicles.

I worked in government for a long time in DC, and up until the current administration there’s been at least an attempt at managing optics in Government purchasing. For example, I’m sure most people in the USA recognize that most US Government-owned vehicles are American brands, like Ford or GM products. On top of that, the US government has contracts worth hundreds of millions or dollars with GM Defense, which provides the armored versions of Chevy Suburbans. The armored Fords that are often used in Federal law enforcement are usually contract-bought Ford Expeditions. These are very large SUV’s because they’re used to transport multiple people and lots of equipment.
Take a look at the size of a BMW X5 and look at the difference in size. There is NO excuse or valid reason to purchase these vehicles when purchasing contracts already exist and the normal vehicles used are more useful in every way. And the worst part is, where are the oversight committees?
I’m so glad I don’t work in DC anymore. What a complete dumpster fire.

He’s such an unserious person. You can see how over his head he is at every appearance. He’s so caught up in being a MAGA insider he can’t even pretend to do a competent job.
He’s the fed version of a guy who faked his resume and got a job He’s not qualified for, but is going to show up and eat in the cafeteria and play ping pong and work out in the gym and collect checks until he gets caught being incompetent.

I want sweeping audits in ’26 or ’28, criminal charges for the slightest wrongdoing. If you as a civil servant were party to this fraud, waste, and abuse, you better have a good f’ckin‘ lawyer.

I’ve bought armored SUVs for the Govt before. X5 wasn’t even a contender, because they couldn’t provide the specs needed like a Suburban/Escalade can.
If I’m understanding this right, I think they went out and illegally bought production model SUVs, and then illegally altered those vehicles to add armor. They left everything else intact if it’s happened that fast. Sweet Baby Jesus, they can’t just hit Mute on the steering wheel and expect it to be a secure compartment!
