FBI Director Kash Patel appears on broadcast with Sean Hannity to discuss his goals and objectives with the ongoing information releases from the FBI, “The Transparency Initiative.”
Take your emotion out of it. Take your feelings out of it. Do not project anything onto it. Imagine yourself hearing and reviewing this for the first time. Watch and listen carefully to it. Your intuition will not be wrong. WATCH:
BREAKING: Kash Patel just made the rare appearance on Fox and HOLY CRAP! He’s uncovered the largest scandal in American history!
No wonder these corrupt crooks in DC are sweating!

What you are witnessing is a performance. This is performative, not substantive.
It sounds simplistic, but the #1 easiest *tell* is the venue, Sean ‘tick-tock’ Hannity. The #2 and #3 are the references to Trey Gowdy et al. The chaff and countermeasures process.
Kash Patel says, “we are building a case for the American public“… There it is.
Accept things as they are, not as we would wish them to be. Do not project onto it.
There’s the defined “accountability” outcome Kash Patel and Pam Bondi are delivering.
It’s okay. Sunlight is a good goal, exposure is a good goal, but moderate expectations and do not expect to see any indictments. They “are building a case for the American public,” not a jury.
If they were building a case for a jury, they wouldn’t be on television talking about building their case.

Kash appearing on Hannity is all you need to know. Trumps intel and justice picks are disappointing to say the least.
For a more optimistic view.

You misspelled pretending.

David, you keep posting this same URL with tracking information that could be used to identify you and when and where you got your email.
I suggest that you go to the web link, and use that instead, after removing the web tracking information that is everything after the question mark.
,
So Trump is disappointing you as well? How many times has he been interviewed by Hannity? It’s not a metric.
Y’know, I’m kinda through with the “all you need to know” mantra.
Nothing is ever _everything_ I need to know.
Trump’s picks? You mean the Senate’s picks? Trump doesn’t get the picks he’d really want, like Obama and Biden got. Trump has to instead deal with hostile Senate RINOs like McConnell, McCain , Thune, Murkowsky, et al.
Trump doesn’t get “his picks”, then gets nitpicked by armchair conservatives that don’t understand “confirmed with the advice and consent of the Senate”.
Kash lost me at the beginning when he said “Sean, Just think about this for a minute.”
I am surprised Sean didn’t beat him to the punchline. Am I right?
Kash lost me long before going on Fox. He cheer-led the idea of vastly reducing the entire agency. Then as soon as he got in that tune changed. He was seduced by the scene and is now playing the game. But he can’t skate for long with our collective eyes on his every move, or lack of them. It’s how that town rolls.
If no one is ever indicted, it will happen again and the corrupt swamp will only grow in size.
Trust “the plan”.
I watched.
I think the Dems are making plans.
Democrats hate FOX news when
Kash Patel is building a case for the American public.
They miss Holder.
The stooge knows his future is tied to protecting the deeep state.
“if” we have dirty, corrupt cops, or FBI agents , or corrupt DOJ lawyers, and they all try to hide stuff, and make “intentional” mistakes so case gets thrown out, what can we do? Anything?
The statue of Limitations should be removed if it is corrupt fbi/doj dept that are protecting criminals and on purpose “screwing up the case files to protect government people.”
Sounds like Mafia took over the FBI/DOJ. And they are able to get away with Murder and other assorted crimes…. because they all stick together to protect themselves. And Billions are at stake.
The Statute of Limitation should be eliminated for any crimes committed while serving in elected office, appointed office, or employed in government service.
Why so glum, it’s not like God can’t calculate the trajectory of bullets when it suites his purpose. There are two tracks that are not independent–the grand juries and educating the public. Both need to be managed.
Is this going to wash with PT? Was this his plan to just expose then drop it? Boy if you thought the backlash from Epstein was bad…..
The American public does not need “a case.” We need justice; no more BS.
Everyone needs to STOP paying taxes!
Nothing will change until we stop feeding / funding our destruction…
That really is the ground zero of all of this. Unplug the government and watch what happens.
Before I get time to read this thread, as sundance suggested, I listened for anything that stuck out to me.
First was “Johnny” Radcliffe. I wonder whether Radcliffe actually sees Kash as his BFF, which seems to be the intended implication of the nickname…
Worse – Tulsi is a “partner”?
Isn’t Tulsi in the chain of command _above_ Kash?
Either that was an extremely 🐍 -like shiv, or Kash is as clueless as the DEI DC Chief of Police.
Neither option inspires confidence.
I do not need or want anyone to build a case for my understanding. I want documents that I can read without black lines throughout. No more secrets or laying it out in such a way that I understand what you want me to understand.
There is a big reason why all of what we know has been dribbled out “drip drip” Someone put those burn bags in a place that they would be found. WHO was that and WHY?
The shiny armor is looking a bit rusty on the earlier champions of liberty…
SD already exposed all of this. I know, many people were not reading here and the ones I directed here don’t show any signs of ever checking this place out.
I haven’t lost hope. I just have hope in other things – especially in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
The world turns as they say. I pray for protection over my loved ones and everyone actually. Now I am going swimming with my granddaughter before summer disappears, and the kids are back in school.
I will continue to support SD’s efforts and read here daily. I found this place in 2017 and I really appreciate everyone who contributes their knowledge and expertise here along with their opinions.
Have a great day everybody!
Biblical believers are being shown the limits of what representative government really is. It may be preferential to top-down dictatorship, but all roads lead to collapse with humanity in charge. We have our specific hopes and dreams for DC to finally right itself, but man cannot govern. Only the true Lamb can do this and these preceding years are the sifting time for the future participants in his righteous government.
Hannity, Kash, Tulsi et al cannot bring this about, only the righteous Word has the authority. Stop overly investing your faith and hope in any of them. Live like it’s on you.
Better yet, live like it’s on the Lord.
Because it is.
Someone put those burn bags in a place that they would be found. WHO was that and WHY?
And if they were “burn bags”, why weren’t they burnt?
I believe that’s the intended purpose, although I wouldn’t contend that my simplistic logic is infallible
FWIW, PDJT has been fuming over his prior decision to Drop the Hillary Investigation, since day 1 of his 45th Presidency. You hear it every time Hillary and or Russia, comes up in one of his Press Conferences, “I let her go, and they came after me.”
Again complex cases, take months, years to properly build. This one, is going to be Historic. . .
In the interim Department of Justice needs to do two things, keep the case momentum moving along (great for pressuring Informants), second keep the public aware of the evidence as it happens, as best they can.
Besides, it’s almost the end of summer, most people are working on getting back to school and back to life after vacation. . .
How do you prosecute people that firmly believed PDJT was a danger to America and any rules or laws broken while trying to stop him was warranted? Given the deranged behavior of democrats over the last 10 years and more, I think many would agree they have a serious mental illness driving their actions.
Again, most of the people involved have spoken publicly about what they see as “the end of democracy” along with a warped idea of how the country is now so bad. Even though we accept that much of it was lies, there is still the underlying maniacal absolute certainty of Trumps guilt based on hate for PDJT and his policies.
So, if they ever were to take the stand, they will say they firmly believe what they did was for the good(their ideas) of the country. With that, the question would be asked “didn’t you know it was illegal?” It would be like like prosecuting someone who robbed a bank, who firmly believed all the money in the bank was theirs, and had documents they believed proved it.
Because of the left’s Trump Derangement Syndrome, I believe the only convictions will be for crimes that are easily documented like lying to congress, tax fraud, illegal campaign expenditures, the Hatch act, leaking, etc. There will be no high crimes like conspiracy or treason because the lefties are certifiably insane.
There is the possibility of civil lawsuits but that is a long way off.
what they see as “the end of democracy”
I’ve taken to calling that “muh democracy”
These seditious corrupt goons need to go to prison or the next communist that sets foot in those agencies will commit all these crimes and more with impunity. FBLIE DELENDA EST.
Director Patel is getting this out which is particularly gratifying to me. We out here in flyover country have known for a long time that Christopher Wray is the most hateful and the dirtiest rotten cop involved in the Obama coup.

Thank you, Sundance. Agreed.
Even before watching, I’m disinterred because of the Host. Sean Hannity is the epitome of the pompous, shill for the UniParty narrative. I’ll see how far I get before pulling the plug…
Hmmm…
So, Epstein really did commit suicide, too, Kash?
I have a problem trusting in Patel’s common sense, if not his veracity.
His track record doesn’t impress me.
If I could have only one win…I would settle (quite happily) for the Truth. The whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
Should we infere that Hannity interviewing Trump after his Summit with Putin is Hopium as well?
Asking for a friend.
I totally agree with Sundance–drastically lower expectations. The country’s highest ranking cop and highest ranking attorney are prosecuting this in public. Patel and Bondi are doing this to poison the well for indictments and prosecution.
Hillary is saying Trump should win the Nobel Peace Prize. The fix is in. It sucks, but any indictments would be a circus that overwhelms everything positive Trump is accomplishing.
Make America great again, but keep an eye on traitorous bastards.
The Weismans, Fani Willis, Leticia James, Bragg and Jack Smith prosecuted Trump in public….very publicly in fact. And put 34 felonies (bogus) and almost 100 indictments on him.
That’s how it is done now.
The fact that Tulsi and Bondi (with Trump’s personal lawyer as the second in command) are moving it along the “speaking indictment” track is not evidence that no one will get indicted. Not at all.
They also obtained dozens of convictions, pleas, and indictments against Trump’s allies.
They even got a plea bargain and apology out of Sydney Powell, and her cooperation to testify against Trump.
Using the same methodology that is being used now.
Trying people in the media, strategic leaks, the process is the punishment…….and making everything overly public.
It worked for them, why are all of you so convinced it won’t work the aimed back at them?
I think that there may be statute of limitations issues, here…
There will be great disappointment if there are no indictments. Without them there will be no restoring of trust.
I like Kash but he does have that stare of a serial killer.
