Again, proceed with caution. As you will immediately pick up in the beginning of this interview, Catherine Herridge is investigating her tribe.
Some of Catherine Herridge’s sources, contacts and network are some of the same DC officials who were directly involved in the corruption. I have seen her avoid reporting on corrupt activity due to the reality of her relationships with some of the people involved.
Catherine Herridge is also VERY concerned about appearances and will never do anything that risks her access to systems and information sources. WATCH:

She’s the female version of John Solomon.
Disagree.
She’s way smarter and not as committed to performance reporting.
She’s a partner at McCord, Ingraham, Elf, Esq.
You and 33 others have not followed her at all of you believe this………..
Elf on a shelf monitoring that all players color within the lines
How much time does Patel spend in Las Vegas?
Does Pam Bondi work from Florida?
Would anyone even notice where Patel does media appearances from. Secondly, who cares. He gives away his blind failure in his 1st sentence in this interview where he says ” He knew arriving at FBI HQ, he’d find a dedicated workforce.” History itself should have clued him in that the only “deduction” he’d find in that workforce was the dedication to protect DC and leftist scum who get their jollys going after Conservatives, PDT and his supporters, parents at school board meetings and Christians, while ignoring terrorists and crime by politicians being committed right under their noses.
You fail to understand there is primary need for ‘labor peace” first. You obviously have never held a large agency management role. Particularly one who has govnerment employees capable of screwing you over six ways to Sunday, and you cannot fire them. Eh?
Ban all government employee unions first, and then maybe we can get some work done.
Bondi hasn’t said squat since the release of the Epstein files have become official. Doesn’t matter now if it’s 3, 30 or 300 days…those files aren’t being released by Bondi. They’re going to be “on her desk” collecting dust.
You need to read more widely. Bondi is knocking bad guys out of the water on a daily basis. The whole rest of the world does not rest on your voyeur interests only in Epstein.
She can lose the accusatory manner and still be inadequate.
I listened to this ..Patel has convinced me the FBI is just full of honest, hard working, salt of the earth agents working
on behalf of the the American citizens. We just need to trust them…/S.
My response below to the assertion FBI is an honest bunch, just accept it.
.
Brig. Gen. Anthony McAuliffe’s famous “Nuts!” reply was on December 22, 1944. German forces had surrounded the U.S. troops in Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge and demanded their surrender.
.
Apparently Gen. Anthony McAuliffe almost never used fowl language, rather he would say, “Nuts!” instead.
General McAuliffe never used “fowl” language because he was no “chicken” – he was a fighter.
I look forward to stories about Kash because CTH never disappoints in always posting comical images of him .
Kash is a living sight gag.
Kash now has the terrified look of a deer in headlights because the DS owns him now.
I watched the first minute and then turned it off.
Patel came right out of the gate blathering about the “dedicated workforce” (“honorable rank and file”) who are focused on “The Mission” of the FBI, and how they needed to be “taken care of.”
That opening question/answer was clearly scripted to protect the false narrative (lies) that people like Elf On A Shelf are so wedded to.
Patel is a liar and a fool. Herridge is a well paid, dishonest narrative engineer.
Had I listened for more than 1 minute I would have lost my mind.
Ya. The whole interview was an FBi advertisement.
🤢
one of the tells was that her questions were asked rhythmically, cadenced as if she was making sure she got the wording just so.
Then there was NO FOLLOWUP when Patel said they knew who put the burn bags in the room. She didn’t ask, “what are you going to do about?”
The only word that I have to describe the few parts that I did manage to sit through is, insufferable.
They don’t even try to hide the strings anymore.
Same here
Think of this as the requisite “land acknowledgment” we must suffer through everywhere else. He needs labor peace first, and then he can get the job done. You did not let him fire government employees, remember. Change that.
“labor peace” and “struggle sessions” – the new old lexicon?
That’s where I stopped it, too. It just pains me to watch someone, anyone, bullshit like that – cringeworthy.
I don’t think Patel is lying, I think he really believes his nonsense.
perhaps he thinks what he is shown by FBI insiders is true. FBI insiders show Kash and Dan whatever suits FBI insiders. Kash and Dan do no investigating themselves.
It’s hard to see what’s going on in DC when you’re all the way across the country in Las Vegas. I think he’s just stupid – not unintelligent, not misinformed, just plain stupid. The alternative is that he has been threatened with harm, and that is possible.
The uniparty would not have confirmed a true patriot for that job.
In my opinion, Patel is trying hard to convince himself he is not lying, but he does know. He is making choices.
I think the fbi, leaders, rank and file are all running rings around him and laughing behind his back. All kash wants is people like him. What a ignorant loser.
I’m beyond caring why he speaks lies. Maybe he’s dumb, maybe he’s compromised, maybe he’s just a pathological liar.
I don’t care.
The words he is speaking are falsehoods. He cannot be trusted to tell the truth. He must be fired immediately.
Kash has been co-opted and is living the good life.
Kash is all things to all people depending on who is buttering his chicken.
The Deep State’s FBI is the mob. And as the mob it does contract hits and leaves dead fish in boxes on doorsteps to send messages. Like this one when the case to investigate the fraudulent Georgia election of 2020 was still supported by its governor and leading R’s. Which, not so coincidentally, was shut down after this dead fish was put on the doorsteps of those investigating the steal. Even taking out the GBI investigator:

It really, truly is an actual National Crime Syndicate.
Our entire government, an international crime syndicate, the world’s government’s are run just like the Apalachin Meeting of crime family bosses. A scene dramatized in The Godfather and Analyze This. Governments of the world: Sames.
https://www.nationalcrimesyndicate.com/apalachin-meeting/
Government employee unions did that do us since 1962. They need to be banned, or no one gets out alive. Patel is working around the edges and offered many unguarded revelations. Things are unraveling.
It’s impossible to reconcile Patel’s “Government Gangsters” and this interview. The man is a wholesale fraud.
Kash reportedly on the hot seat now. About damn time.
Doesn’t matter. The Senate will make sure all these offices are unfilled outside anyone already confirmed.
Fire Bondi, Patel, hell everyone but PDJT himself. Then he will literally and physically be alone.
They will NEVER confirm anyone who will do the job. Never. Rubio pulled a fast one on ’em… or so it still seems. Still a decent chance he is pulling a fast one on US.
Trump got in a lot of good people in the beginning. Democrats did not start being bratty obstructionists until around April 2025.
Areporter on Bloomberg TV just said DJT isn’t happy with the headlines Kash has been generating. Hes now on the hot seat.
Trump is firing the fake media, one by one. You will be less disturbed by their fake news in the future. Try to no longer fall for what they do. That helps in the meantime.
Crooks: “We weren’t there for the investigation…we don’t know what happened and why those decisions were made but we’re doing what we can to clean it up.”
What needs cleaning up if it’s already been decided that he acted alone?
I got what he was saying. Why twist it against him. The is a state operation with zero follow up by Biden. Patel cannot turn th clock back. You could have, but you did not. You let Biden make a cock-up of this incident.
She’s the Elf on The Shelf. Sundance had a picture of her as Elf on the Shelf. I wish I could find it.
Team America had better marionette actors. Gary and Lisa were great. These two not so much. Spit
She’s only in it for her shelf.
Giving Wordman some competition I see. 🤣
Word, man!
Me, mysELF, and I.
Blondi, Pappy-tell, and Rat-Cliffe…….
DeepState to the max…….
If Kash wasn’t a compromised POS he’d do interviews with populist real deal podcasters that won’t play the establishment game.
Agreed. That’s very revealing.
Why does Ka$h feel the need to desecrate the Ronald Reagan building?
He explained why in the interview. Time and money saved. Good enough for me. Reagan would approve too.
yep
Good one.
See the new movie Nuerenberg.
One of the Nazi high command was able to commit suicide in his cell with just a short towel. Like it has been suspected Epstein did to himself too in the short space of his own cell.. Spy code and all that.
What happened?
Did he carefully take apart the short towel, thread by thread, fashioning a rope?
Does Catherine Herridge make as much off website subscriptions as she made at Fox and CBS?
What other sources of income might she have?
Including “off the books” revenue?
The world may never know.
She has Pentagon connections.
Blah blah blah blah day blah,,,nothing will be done
Awww, poor baby. You have us feeling so sorry for your disappointment.
Catherine Herridge is a CIA operator. She’s the face of Operation Mockingbird.
CAIR is bragging their 10 years long use of 501C3 Mosque involved get the vote out is finally a huge success they won over 40 major seats in American politics every one of the winners is a MUSLIM Brotherhood member. Sugarland Texas opens first of many to come Muslim centers complete with Giant monkey looking Hindu God Statute. 3 more to open next year in TEXAS. WAKEY WAKEY America. Between the left and their open boarders people have plans for America and it dont include you WHITY.
… Muslim centers complete with Giant monkey looking Hindu God Statute.
I kind of doubt it.
Good overall point. Problem in details may reduce credibility.
A gentleman named Dr. Peter Hammond wrote a book called “Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat” in 2005. The book was a warning about what happens when Muslims move into a country/city/town.
Dr. Hammond wrote,
“As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will for the most part be regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens.” That would apply to cities and towns as well.
He went on to say that, when the Muslim population reaches from 2-5%, they begin to aggressively recruit converts from jails and prisons, street gangs and ethnic minorities. Of course, increased tendencies towards violence are present in each of those groups.
When the Muslim community in any location exceeds 5%, the gloves come off. They become politically active and run for office. They run huge, well funded “get out the vote” operations in their own community and within the so-called “marginalized populations” mentioned above. It is at this point that Sharia law is instituted amongst the Muslims and “no-go zones” are established.
Above 10%? Uncontrolled violence, rioting, burning and open terrorism. Your town/city/state/country now becomes unlivable.
Dr. Peter Hammond warned of all that and more 20 years ago, and we see it coming true today. The UniParty Deep State-including the FBI-is facilitating all of it.
Pray continually and prepare to fight for our country. We will get no help from our ruling class, including Kash the Klown, Blondie, Bon Jovi BonGino, or the Elf On A Shelf.
Trump can only buy us some time. We will never purge the evil in every alphabet agency. The Congresscritters will never vote on term limits, but they will vote to give themselves raises, and keep slush funds to protect each other from their crimes. Traitors, our government is overstocked with traitors.
If ya can’t beat’em then join’em. Kash is one of “them” in my book.
Even though she woke up in the middle of the night, to the senior big brother of 3 letter, having control of her laptop? It is like these people have Stockholm syndrome.
Ka$h, you wrote a book called “Government Gangsters.”
Under your leadership at the FBI, how many of these “gangsters” have been arrested? Are any of the “gangsters” even under investigation?
She asked the right questions. I recall she left Fox on her own, but CBS made a big mistake when they let her go.
His answers are as much of the cuff as her questions are “off the shelf”.
Blondie Bondi @ Fox $250/yr; minnow Kash $155. $ grows on trees.
While I understand the whole Hannity tick, tock perspective, I’ll just say that I hope Patel is genuine and is taking care of business. Overall, all I can do is trust POTUS’s judgement and see what happens. Kash and Bongino have taken a lot of heat and I’m hoping it’s unwarranted. Yet how many times will Charlie Brown line up for the field goal with Lucy holding?
Dear President Trump, smart people get rid of dead weight.
Kash Patel is the epitome of dead weight.
He is as useful as a toothbrush with no bristles.
Please throw him overboard and get a real FBI Director that’s going to get something done.
And get someone that has no media presence to preserve, no reputation. Somebody that’s like Steven Miller.
White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson responded to MS NOW’s report claiming President Trump is considering removing Kash Patel as FBI Director:
“President Trump has assembled the most talented and impressive Administration in history and they are doing an excellent job carrying out the President’s agenda. FBI Director Patel is a critical member of the President’s team and he is working tirelessly to restore integrity to the FBI,”” Abigail Jackson said.
Patel is doing a solid, deliberate, mindful of laws and process, job. : )
This country could use that resolve towards diligent effort, within the law, and to equally enforce laws, for 5 to 100 years.
Umm correct me but isn’t this guys boss our President Trump? Time for him to use his famous line “you’re fired””
Lifeless interview. But Patel demonstrated he does have a depth of knowledge, with a sensitivity to the public’s desire to learn more.
As soon as he opened his mouth, I decided that I could not listen to this.
I suspect she’s been threatened. She reported that her home and her computer were bugged and seemed to be petrified with that discovery. I think she knows who did it and she’s been told to tread lightly because “they” will zap her
I thought that was Sharyl Atkisson – Herridge had her computer hacked too? I hadn’t heard about her.
JMO.
All kidding aside, bondi and patel have got to be fired along with the upwards of 10,000 carryover, biden, weaponizing, treasonous thugs in the DOJ and the FBI who they are protecting.
As for Catherine, she is a certified “fellow traveler” to the globalist / communists illegally residing within our Constitutional Republic’s Executive Branch. She is a “mockingbird” in the fake news who deserves to be swept out with the bondi / patel trash.
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
Mockingbird
Carly Simon and James Taylor
This post did expose a chaos agent here in my opinion.
Care to guess who? Pushing just a bit too hard. Needs training. Or is actually Kash himself.
Counterfeit Kash meets the Elf. Is this a new holiday movie?
37,000 agents just in the NC Region? not many crimes being committed there? They’re obviously not looking very hard.
And moving 1000 of these outside the region? Might as well take a bucket of water out of the ocean – it’s just as effective.
What a phony this chapyap is – should be summarily fired for either brash mendacity, consummate stupidity, or willful blindness – or all of the above.
Lots of accusations being flung forth in the majority of these comments, and very little actual evidence to back up most of these determinations.
Basically, a big bunch of opinions that lean toward division.
Is there any real trust here for the man we elected to save our country? I can only speak for myself.
I still trust PDJT as our best bet. Just consider the alternative.
Catherine Herridge is the best damn investigative journalist on Capitol Hill bar none.
