I have not been this stunned, surprised, shocked or taken aback since President-Elect Donald Trump announced Matt Gaetz as the next United States Attorney General.
Using his Truth Social account to capture attention, President Donald Trump announces, “Kashyap “Kash” Patel will serve as the next Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.”
[Source]
As interesting as the announcement is, so too is the wording President Trump selected; not “nominated“, not “appointed,” a simple “will serve as“… Thereby leaving the maximum amount of interpretability available for the consumer of the announcement.
This has to be the most Trumpian announcement in the history of some very Trumpian announcements.
FBI Director Christopher Wray has approximately two years left on his term, and he has not announced his resignation. It should also be noted President-Elect Donald Trump did not say anything about firing Chris Wray, which would be in bad form considering that President Trump couldn’t even entertain the approach until he is officially inaugurated in January.
That dynamic quickly triggered the FBI to respond with: “Every day, the men and women of the FBI continue to work to protect Americans from a growing array of threats. Director Wray’s focus remains on the men and women of the FBI, the people we do the work with, and the people we do the work for.”
One element is certain. By saying, “Kash will work under our great Attorney General, Pam Bondi, to bring back Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity to the FBI,” you can be guaranteed Bondi is going to be asked about it during her confirmation hearings.
So, what does all this mean?
I have no idea, and, quite frankly, knowing Trump, I’m not going near this with a 10-foot pole.
Perhaps it is better to wait a little while and wait until someone asks President-elect Donald Trump how exactly Kash Patel is going to “serve as” the FBI Director, and what approach President Trump will take in order to make that announcement turn into a reality.
I’m sure Chris Wray, Chuck Schumer, Mitch McConnell and John Thune will also be watching earnestly to see what President Trump proposes.
The level of ‘splodey heads amid the current and former FBI officials, in combination with the entire corporate media apparatus that circles American politics, are predictably going to be off-the-charts. The apoplexy visible within the Gaetz nomination will pale in comparison.
Enjoy all of it!




I can’t believe there isn’t an economic incentive to FIX this – Pres Trump, make them a deal they can’t refuse.
This sounds like hell on earth.
Statement by Tom Fletcher, Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator
(N’Djamena, Chad, 29 November 2024)
I have spent the past week traveling across Sudan, talking to communities, leaders, humanitarian partners and our UN family.
The message to the international community from those at the heart of this crisis is unequivocal: We are not invisible.
Sudan is in the grips of an epic polycrisis. Nearly 20 months of war have turned it into the fastest-growing displacement crisis, with an average of a staggering 20,000 people forced to move every day.
Sudan has also become the worst hunger crisis in the world, with three quarters of a million people one step away from famine and 26 million people – more than half the country’s population – suffering from hunger.
Sexual violence is rampant. I heard stories of rape, sexual slavery and horrific violence against women and girls.
Childhood malnutrition rates are high. And cases of cholera, dengue and malaria are on the rise.
The numbers are unlike anything we’ve seen in recent years, and yet the world is not responding with the solidarity and support that is needed.
What is Americas interest in Sudan? None? Ok sorry we’re not fixing every craphole country. We’re fixing America.
Indeed, we have to fix America first or we won’t be able to fix anyone else. We’ve been bled dry.
We all know what the “fixers” like Nuland and Powers have done with their tools. God willing America’s days as FIXER are over!
“America’s days as FIXER are over.” That would entail closing half of the CIA and State Dept.
And that’s a bad thing?
Your terms are acceptable
More like all of both departments really. Oh sure, there may be one or two employees who truly are patriots, but the rest need pinks slips.
Wasn’t Sudan precisely the hide-away terrorists find convenient? The Bin Ladens of the world?
These kinds of problematic environments cannot be completely ignored.
Who is the bad egg that has brought the Sudan to collapse? What is their motive?
“America’s interest” in Sudan is purely that Israel is interested in Sudan.
Sudan is a Muslim country with a large population, which views Israeli actions against Palestinians as war crimes. It is in the general area of Israel, not too far away. And its people are poor and a potential source of soldiers to take actions against Israel. Thus, Israel, and its American dupes, stir chaos in Sudan.
They spent a couple decades using the Christian/Muslim conflict as fuel for that fire. Then Israel and the USA sponsored the Christian South Sudan to split off and become its own country. South Sudan quickly descended into ethnic genocide–Christians vs Christians (pretty much totally ignored in American press). This genocide was horrific and bloody–sort of like Rwanda or Liberia.
Absolutely not one single American interest involved in either Sudan or South Sudan. 100% AIPAC interest there.
It’s MAGA not MIGA!
I’m not sure about Sudan…but doesn’t Africa have much wanted Minerals?
Point is……The “presidentz” of these US were in on the policies to make food inaccessible and or unavailable. So much was confessed by bidum at the g8 meeting.
I have not followed the developments in Sudan since our church helped some of the Lost Boys around 9/11. Is this North Sudan, the Muslim side, or South Sudan, non-Muslim? Raids on S Sudan by north?
Population, per a quick Brave search…50 million, growing at 2% a year, median age is 18. I don’t know the significance of the country…other than their civil war…stats of survival are not good…average life expectancy of a male is 63.4 years and they have a high infant mortality.
https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/sudan-population/
Yeah. This is directly related to President Trump’s Kash Patel announcement. Uh-huh.
Africans can fix their own messes, and stay within their own borders. Homo erectus does not respect us.
Not to worry….when a similar situation happened in Ethiopia, their Minister of Health, who directly oversaw the issue, was then nominated to the WHO……Dr. Tedros.
and our tax dollars are used to ostensibly aid in the starvation and medical emergencies
however, are probably not making it to the people who need it
nothing changes

Didn’t Obama promise George Clooney he was going to fix the Sudan crisis?
U S A !!!
Every time the United States steps in to “help” it usually doesn’t end well for those who were supposedly receiving the help.
Like post-war Germany? Or Japan?
Wow! Posters certainly strayed from the Patel announcement.
The US just dodged a bullet in this election. We have enough problems. I care about Sudan in the abstract. America First. I’m tired of America last. We need to help our own people, like the Helene survivors FIRST and AMERICANS suffering from the economic fallout of the illegal communist Biden regime. Wait until 2025. The truth about or crumbling financial system will rear it’s ugly head. Trump will face a major economic crisis.
That one!
Appoint Ilhan Omar as ambassador to Sudan
Even with aid, after all the corrupt leaders of countries and representatives sent to “help” take their cut, the Aid is probably 1%. This has to stop.
So is this to put them on the ropes? If they ask Bondi anything challenging she will bring up all Kash stuff he has been outlining during her confirmation maybe? so the whole world gets to watch ‘splodey heads are splodin’ if they push on her otherwise she sails through…?
Question for the wise ones. Graham, Cronyn, Hawley, Bernie Moreno, Grassley all have indicated they would confirm.
Can Mitch McConnell (or Thune) avoid a confirmation hearing of Bondi by using some sort of procedural maneuver if the votes to confirm exist?
A possible clue; Representative Clay Higgins, almost at the same time as PDJT posted this, posted a tweet, directed AT Chris Wray, telling him to “keep himself available” and which sounds an awful lot like when the Police tell the suspect “don’t leave town”.
He has been a real honey-badger on the FBI instigation of J6, and has let out SOME of the info he has uncovered, while withholding some, in an interview with Laura Loomer.
If FBI Director Chris Wray is arrested and charged, presumably he would have to step down.
Given Patels resume, seems likely he has gone thru Senate confirmation before, and certainly has a top secret security clearance,..and so PDJT could appoint him as interim director.
Both Higgins tweet, and PDJT’s announcement read like they are taunting the FBI leadership, with the intent to make them nervous.
Certainly sounds like Higgins can prove 2 buses of FBI agents dressed in MAGA gear, disembarked those busses and on the morning of J6.
WHAT ELSE does he have,..is what he wants them worrying about.
Not sure what all charges they can bring, for deliberately setting up to incite a riot, but certainly an op like that involving two busloads of FBI agents, would HAVE to be approved at the top.
And, it would certainly be a good idea, at the outset of his administration, to not just pardon the j6 prisoners, but to EXHONERATE them, and once and for all debunk the lie that J6 was an “insurrection”.
Anyway, even if they don’t arrest Wray, exposing the FBI plot to create the appearance of an insurrection would certainly justify demanding his resignation or firing him.
Going where Sundance quite wisely declined to go….cause I can speculate and am proved wrong, on occasion, lol.
“…and once and for all debunk the lie that J6 was an “insurrection”.
Amen.
AND appoint Mayor Rudy Giuliani as a ZAR over the FBI toilet bug.😡
“And, it would certainly be a good idea, at the outset of his administration, to not just pardon the j6 prisoners, but to EXHONERATE them, and once and for all debunk the lie that J6 was an “insurrection”.
This must be done I agree.
“We caught the Swamp. We caught them all. No one else could have done that but me. Let’s see what happens. On top of that we have the best economy, greatest economy we’ve ever had.”
I think we are about to find out “what happens”.
P.S. Kash Patel was on Rep Devin Nunes team investigating/getting to the bottom of the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax.
Kash Patel, Devin Nunes and Dan Scavino are like the Three Amigos.
Thanks Dutchman for that and Sundance’s “quietly waiting” response …
I’m so pleased – I’m almost gloating!
Kash Patel interview on Shawn Ryan Podcast. It’s long but worth it for anyone who cares to know what’s in store.
Can you tell me what number this is? Maybe I could find it on his Apple Podcasts then. Thanks!
It’s Episode #128
The video below is interesting as well 😉
https://old.bitchute.com/video/AIe1Ak6U3VxT/
It may be connected to this observation as well…
https://old.bitchute.com/video/xpyTGpdYjHhs/
FBI ‘ officials’ already fed a story that was run by The Atlantic saying Kash Patel is a more dangerous than Matt Gaetz.
All the right people are worried. Wake up, D.C. criminals, your day is done!
This is such wonderful news, and surely an answer to prayer.
Kash Patel knows who these government gangsters are and is ready and able to bring justice to the American people.
Go get em’ Kash!
“I caught them all”.
When you speak of palace intrigue, or Machiavellian in nature your post is oozing with awesome speculation. I love it. : )
Team Trumps guide == Sun Tsu
Team Malevolents guide == Machiavelli
Fortunately, DJT has studied both. Thankfully, he ultimately chose to be guided by Sun Tsu.
As an aside, in the 80s, during interviews, DJT openly talked about choosing Sun Tsu and why he didn’t chose M.
“Too dark”.
Once again. Temptation bait offered, investigated and rejected.
Great analysis as usual D.
From Rep. Clay Higgins today:
“Mr. Wray,
Remain close to DC. Your presence will be commanded. Repeatedly.
In this Holiest of seasons, as you box up your mementos of oppression, may visions of the thousands of American J6 families you’ve destroyed dance through your head. Merry Christmas.
Higgins out.”

Whoa. I surmise the J6 gulag movement they still are at, is about to unravel on the swamp…….hmmmmm
Wow
No more private jet trips Mr. Wray.
Presence commanded? Sounds like a subpoena will be in Wray’s Christmas stocking.

Here’s a powerful 2-minute video from Clay Higgins from October 2023.
He says to America, “Hang in there. Glorious days are coming.”
https://x.com/AAnon55/status/1718438236215779536
SD maybe we should wait as you suggest. But to me, the fact that Trump stated he WILL serve as FBI director indicates his resolve.
Nothing more, nothing less. Recess appointment or some other constitutional appointment will work and FBI Director will be Kash.
Yea it’s certainly apprentice time in America isn’t it?
Whatever the game is, is certainly afoot!!
I do have this somewhat personal aside, I do know people in that agency are leaving rather quickly.
They can run but they cannot hide.
“will serve as“ is commonly referred to as T “Trump trolling”. He’s sucking a few heads around the room…how delicious..Sunday talk shows ought to be real events.
.
Trolling in a way. Donald Trump doesn’t tend to say things that he doesn’t mean.
.
Trolling, at least Trump’s Trolling is typically done to trigger reactions; reactions that provide Intel and/or to create distractions that provide cover ie protect key people from being fired on by The Regimes Media PsyWar Machine before their mission has succeeded.
However, sometimes Trumps Trolling is about offering a Light Hearted humor break; an R&R, to his “digital soldiers”.
BETTER….
CUT THE CORD
And he supports FISA section-702. Just as long as the “right” people spy on Americans, that is.
“And he supports”
at least for now
because…..
Some choose to live, ponder, learn, improve and become wiser.
Others choose to rEEEEact rather Han ponder, learn and improve.
Fortunately, until their time runs out, rEEEactives can have a change of heart.
I also liked President Trump’s new FBI acronym:
“Kash will work under our great Attorney General, Pam Bondi, to bring back Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity to the FBI…”
It’s about time the letters FBI stood for something noble and honest.
.
The thing is that we’ve become so used to certain things that we don’t question…
President is head of the executive branch. Ultimately he is responsible for “everything”. He can define what the duties are of his executive and bureaucrat personnel.
So let’s say that there’s not an “approved” cabinet official. Senate is time-wasting. Why would there even need to be an official “Acting” this or that. Just delegate authority to a “czar” or an “emissary” or a “whatever” or even a lesser employee already in place who simply won’t carry the title. What’s Congress or the courts going to do.
.
IIRC Obama brought in 44 ‘czars.’ No one knew what their job was that I remember.
Yeah, What CAN they do? The opposition nearly always gives us the finger and does what they want why can’t WE.?

@alexbruesewitz
Kash Patel is arguably the MOST qualified FBI Director nominee in history… Here’s his background:
– Kash served as the Chief of Staff to the Department of Defense (DoD) and Deputy Assistant to President Trump. As the Chief of Staff at DoD, his responsibilities included implementing the Secretary’s no fail mission with our 3 million plus employees, operating a $740 billion budget, and $2 trillion in assets.
– Kash served as Deputy Director of National Intelligence where he oversaw all 17
Intelligence Community (IC) agencies, and prioritized intelligence collection to focus on hard targets and global threats. He led the Director’s mission to synthesize our intelligence holdings and create the President’s Daily Briefing, which he then briefed to the President and cabinet officials.
– Kash led President Trump’s counterterrorism mission as Deputy Assistant to the President on the National Security Council (NSC) and helped President Trump’s on his top priorities including eliminating Al-Qa’ida and ISIS senior leadership, and safely repatriating dozens of American hostages. As the top counterterrorism official at the White House, Kash was responsible for creating and implementing our nation’s policy to safeguard the homeland by overseeing the interagency implementation of the national CT strategy.
– Kash served as the National Security Advisor and Senior Counsel for the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) where he spearheaded the investigation into the Russian active measures campaign to influence the 2016 presidential election (Russia Gate). The investigation discovered numerous illegal surveillance measures undertaken by the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation to unlawfully spy on the Trump campaign. Concurrently, he led congressional oversight of sensitive programs for the IC and U.S. Special Operations Forces and worked to enact legislation to fully fund the multi-billion-dollar budgets supporting intelligence and counterterrorism operations worldwide.
– Kash worked as a National Security Prosecutor at the DOJ under the Obama Administration where he led investigations spanning multiple theaters of conflict and oversaw the successful prosecution of criminals aligned with Al-Qaida, ISIS, and other terror groups. This work necessitated Mr. Patel’s presence in locations across the globe, collaborating with host nation governments to successfully prosecute terrorists. He also served as the DOJ Liaison Officer to Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), working with our nation’s most prestigious counterterrorism units (special forces) to conduct collaborative global targeting operations against high value objectives, in almost every theater of war.
– Kash began his career as a Public Defender, trying scores of complex cases in federal and state courts, ranging from murder to narco-trafficking, to complex financial crimes.
Kash is exactly who we need to get the FBI back on track!
Thank you.
With the overwhelming cheerleading for this man to head the FBI by people who make their living as “influencers” has continually reminded me of the same way online ‘influencers’ kept on pushing for President Trump to nominate Amy Coney Barrett for the Supreme Court, insisting she was the only one ever on the entire planet who should be nominated and once she was on the bench there has been nothing but caterwauling complaining of her decisions by those same ‘influencers’.
Perplexing; and didn’t really pay attention to the wording of this particular announcement so thank you for catching the wording he used, definitely worth sitting back and having the popcorn ready to see how this unfolds.
All the Admin here were Coney Barrett pushers and water carriers, despite numerous people posting Attorney Robert Barnes’ warnings that Barrett’s record, which was there for all to see, showed that in every instance she sided with government, and against the people and their Constitutional protections.
The recap video below mentions those Barrett decisions. Since Barnes’ warning years ago, Barrett’s only moved farther left. Turns out Barnes was 1,000% right. Admin here 1,000% duped. Likely because all the Admin are women and they couldn’t help but support one of their own. Their fanaticism blinded them to the hard reality of Barrett’s record, which Barnes again and again showed and talked about, warning America Barrett was another Ginsberg.

https://www.politico.com/news/2024/06/19/amy-coney-barrett-supreme-court-conservatives-rift-00164047
I never understood the cheerleading for her nomination. Her authoritarian record was plain for all to see, and signs were that she supported the replacement of the American population by third-world peasants. Lots of conservative judges would have voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, that alone should not have been the deciding factor. She didn’t want to hear the case that ultimately resulted in Roe v. Wade being overturned, and was with the majority only because of her overall philosophy that government can do anything it wants to citizens, i.e., individuals should have no rights. Many better choices were available, just like there were for the Gorsuch and Kavanaugh nominations.
Cheerleading was based on her gender amplified by the leftist media…as a result she was treated with kid gloves during the vetting process…
Wise Generals, like PDJT, accept battle conditions as they are, rather than as they wish they were.
Hence PDJTs decision to nominate Amy rather than someone more to the liking of idealistic contrarians like Barnes (who I’ve listened to and appreciated, for many years).
It should have been Barbara Lagoa all along.
She also voted this year with the Democrat Judges AGAINST President Trump’s BEING IN CONTROL OVER THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH!!! This was a GAME CHANGER! Thank goodness, she was not able to influence the decision! Just think what she could have cost this nation! She is a DESPICABLE PERSON!
she is a liberal in EVERY sense. Totally. I despise her, she is truely despiseable
I have not been all in for Barrett, nor do I like most her votes on the Supreme Court, nevertheless–
–“All the Admin here were Coney Barrett pushers and water carriers…”–
I sure don’t remember that being the case. But seeing as how you posted that as a statement/fact and not an opinion, I’m sure you’re ready to back that up with all the posts that all the admin here ‘pushed‘ Barrett, correct?
Now you did opine that “Likely because all the Admin are women and they couldn’t help but support one of their own. Their fanaticism blinded them to the hard reality of Barrett’s record… “(your bold print, not mine) And this time being your opinion instead of a statement I’ll just agree to disagree with your opinion.
My opinion would be that they would not support a woman just because they are also women, much less be blinded by a “fanticism” they don’t have or exhibit to my knowledge. I don’t think you know them that well or have read most of their posts to make this accusation.
As for your “Admin here 1,000% duped.” statement, me thinks not.
But I do wonder if it is possible that you might have a wee bit of an underlying chip on your shoulder against our admin or women in general for some reason.
Fwiw
“influencers” =/= a borg, even those who claim to be Republicans, Conservatives, Trump Supporters, MAGA or America First.
My Heart. My Thoughts. My Actions/Reactions. My responsibility.

Sundance: “I have not been this stunned, surprised, shocked or taken aback since President-Elect Donald Trump announced Matt Gaetz as the next United States Attorney General.”
What does this string of events since the election involving personnel selections for the DOJ and the FBI all mean?
The operative context here is that the country is currently leaderless and Donald Trump is acting, for all practical purposes, as the defacto president in managing several important national issues, even though he hasn’t yet been inaugurated.
For example, has Matt Gaetz been on some kind of special assignment from Donald Trump starting on or about November 6th, 2024?
And is that assignment, whatever it might be, still actively in progress with further actions coming in the next several months, but yet to be announced?
I’m not Sundance but I am super excited to share with you my thoughts.
President Trump, the CEO for the U.S, is selecting his Officers. That’s the duty of the President. What is unusual is that President Trump used the words “Kash Patel “will serve” Usually a President says, “I appoint” and the Senate will either confirm or deny the appointee. President Trump is telling Senators they will confirm Kash or else. What the or else might be we don’t know and we won’t know unless and until the Senate refuses.
President Biden has abandoned his sinking ship. The Crew,the staff, guests, entertainment and gamblers are jumping ship. Nobody is coming to the rescue. It’s every man for himself. Jan. 20, 2025 the ship sinks out of view.
Trump is the only Candidate, President and now PRESIDENT ELECT in my life time who has:
Told you what he wants to do
Why he wants to do it.
Then does it.
I’m sure you noticed.
So when PRESIDENT ELECT Trump says he is going to place tariffs Canada, Mexico and China on 1/20/25 their Leaders believe him and adjust their attitudes and economies accordingly.
As far as Matt Gaetz, who knows but I hope he shows up as a MAGA Superhero!
And pResident Biden’s crew are really, really torqued because he didn’t have a picture taken with them. They could always use the one from Obama’s last picture outside the Oval. No smiles in that one either.
SPECIAL COUNSIL
It time to kash in and send wray packing far away.
Scene 1, of English playwright William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar: “Cry ‘Havoc!’, and let slip the dogs of war.”
😏😡😀
How about Kash as head of DOJ-NSD and acting Director of FBI ?
I dig it.
My initial guess is that Trump had a little bird whisper some alarming news about Chuck’s, Nancy ‘s and Mitch’s $174 billion production of “Ukraine! The #1 Priority of the Country NOW!”
Maybe Zelensky gave Trump a Treasure Map!! Goonies love Treasure Maps!
OR MAYBE
Trump got some EVIDENCE about their other Production, “J6, the INSURRECTION!
Something about those 2 word “will serve” has me all kinds of EXCITED!
Is it true that the Patel family is the biggest family in the world?
Patel is a very common name in India. I do not think that means they are all related.
Not being negative… but the Patel name in the hospitality and Hotel management business is #1…and they are not all related…
It’s the Smiths of India.
<chuckle>
I will enjoy it.
Were they crying “smugly” in the manner they have been responding of late to the United States people ?
No ?

This announcement has been out on Russians channels for quite a few hours now.
I’ve been checking inhere periodically, to see Sundance/CTH’s response!
So when I read it here … I searched for this “Wray’s purported comment” ..
IMO the response was “entertaining” …

I read the Headlines of the various propaganda organizations you linked. Trump never said, “fire” or “appoint”
Trump said,’will serve”
Director Wray remains to protect the men and women of the FBI to continue the work to focus on growing an array of threats on the people
I anagrammed your link cuz I’m feeling fiesty!
Hah!
Thanks for identifying yourself!
Every MSM (from my google search link) that showed up were from the “usual suspects”
brb – while I check …
in the interim …
Where did I quote any of those sources?
Where did I say I agreed with them?
Where did I say they were correct.
I merely said I read “the announcement”.
Please consider my main point was to emphasize (US spelling here), that most of the references to Sundance’s Quote from the FBI – was from the usual suspects!

I followed Sundance and he followed me, back when I was still on twitter 4+ years ago before being banned
– I still have the database ..
https://www.pokto.com
what are you going on about?
I simply was trying to point out that none of the headlines from “the usual suspects as you call them bothered to quote President Trump’s exact words “will serve”
everybody identifies here.
My reply was friendly.
You are being huffy with me and I don’t like it.
I don’t care how long you and Sundance have been following each other.
You should be nice!
Sharing some general, hopefully helpful, musings:
.An Appeal to Authority == A Common Logical Fallacy
Ditto attempts to Create Authority; authority that should be deferred to rather than questioned.
Logical Fallacies == argumentative tools used by deceivers to thwart truth seekers.
A subset of deceivers == self deceivers.
However, using a Logical Fallacy =/= an evil intent but rather an evil tactic to be noted then responded to, or tuned out, on a case by case basis
So basically Trump has thrown down the gauntlet and announced that Chris Wray is figuratively dead man walking. Trump is making Wray walk the Green Mile during the holiday season. Trump has mind f’d Wray. As a human being, fired by Trump for Kash will be on Wray’s mind for the holidays while he tries to find a new job. I wonder if there are any vacancies for a shopping mall security guard after the holidays? This reminds me of the proverbial Sword of Damocles that @sundance always talks about. In this case the sword is hanging over Chris Wray. Trump is doing to Wray what Wray and the FBI did to Trump for the past 8 years by making Wray lose sleep and playing mind games on Wray.
Wray’s new main job will be picking up the soap in the showers at the big house.
I hope this comes true
I have to remember to not drink coffee, or anything else, when I read comments on this blog. It would a fitting career change for him. 😂
Ya’ gotta love that!
Yes sir!
You are very perceptive, Potson!
“I have not been this stunned, surprised, shocked or taken aback since President-Elect Donald Trump announced Matt Gaetz as the next United States Attorney General.”
Really? Not even when Gaetz suddenly withdrew and started this carnival sideshow for chump change?
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/11/matt-gaetz-joins-cameo-one-day-after-withdrawing/
“Lion” to self-beclowning into irrelevance.
Some might wonder if it was all per Plan, another of countless psyops to shame and disappoint.
Where do you suppose Kash’s trajectory will go?
Beclowning? Maybe Gaetz is biding his time until things heat up.
My prayer is let Wray bewray
bewray – transitive verb
Gaetz is now out of government. Perfect for Special Counsel role, appointed by POTUS.
“Out of government” , specifically the DOJ == Constitutionally ineligible to be a “Special Counsel”?
Fwiw, it don’t know what Constitutionally legit moves PDJT will chose to make but I look forward to watching so I find out then pondering and learning from what he does.
Noticing the emotionally manipulative psyop word bait being deployed?
Example:
Gaetz “started this cArNiVaL siDeShOw for cHuMp change”
One common /pol/ response to inepts ==
“User name checks out”
In this case, what is the user name?
“Simpleton”
😂 😂 😂
Kash Patel’s ‘Government Gangsters’ is a true story…
@sundance I just thought of something. When Kash Patel is confirmed by the Senate and becomes FBI director, Kash can bring in Matt Gaetz as deputy director of the FBI. Could you imagine what would happen with that pick? Lol.
Patel has already gone through the confirmation process previously. I don’t think it’s the same this time; that part has been completed. I think this is why Trump took awhile to announce, he’s toying with theme while doing as he promised.
Hasn’t President Trump already nominated people to fill the powerful supporting positions, like deputy director” in both the FBI and DOJ?
I remember lots of recent cheering, coming from lawfare savvy people whose opinions I’ve come to respect, around President Trumps less noticed but very operationally consequential, nominations
Note this was posted several days ago by someone…
Maybe Biden, Garland, and Wray will let FBI agents keep box of Evening Gowns raided from Mar-a-Lago…
I have the original photo of these glowies. They were just waiting for the gay bars on Dupont Circle to open. 😄
Well, I think if anyone thought Trump was gonna keep Wray on as director,has rocks in their head….Trump is telling it like it is. He means business and he’s not afraid to say so….The Trump way.
Kash is one of the Best to run the FBI~ I bet Wrey is planning to join Ellen….
On Black Friday no less 😂😂😂
Perhaps simplisticly (and certainly grammatically), my interpretation is: Kash Patel will serve as FBI director……when Chris Wray leaves. The use of ‘will’ puts this in the future. The fact this is announced now is to watch all the heads exploding and reactions. Nice one.
Thank you, Sundance for the insight. Would be wandering around lost without your analysis.
“the people we do the work with, and the people we do the work for.”
Yeh. THOSE “people” being Obama and his cabal. If I were Kash Patel I would make certain to never be alone at home for the next 50 days and to publicly show that I gave all my firearms to a friend foe safekeeping. That way the FBI einsatzgruppe that’s going to raid me will have a harder time explaining why I was killed.
Heavy on my mind is Patel’s security detail. I hope it is huge in numbers, private, and the best that money can buy.
“of ‘splodey heads” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What a spectacular way to wake up on a snowy Sunday morning. Once again, thanks be to God.
You can praise God when the miracles occur and any of Trump’s major disruptors are confirmed by 19 F-rated “Republicans” in the Senate when they for some reason choose to seriously damage the Blob/Deep State which both owns them and acts as their ally.
I call it irrational exuberance to think that just because Trump was elected in a 77.1 million to 74.7 million vote race that everything will change now and the massive forces against him where trillions are at stake are somehow magically gone.
“When the miracles occur”
Still remembering the miracle that occurred a few days ago on November 5th.
Still experiencing that miracle and smiling with smiles that start in my Heart then spread to my face.
Still giving thanks for that miracle.
And still asking God to help me help President Trump so his (and His) MAGA Project succeeds.
Hopefully those who still choose to be kill joys and wet blankets aka karen’s and kens, will soon have a change heart.
After all, this is the Christmas Season, a season when Grinch and Scrouge heart transforming MIRACLES happen, are remembered and celebrated.
Interpretation, whether they like it or not regardless.
It will be both fascinating and amusing to see how the 19 F-rated “Republicans” in the Senate (they only need four nays) will succeed in maintaining the corrupt status quo by NOT confirming Donald’s highly disruptive picks.
Gaetz is already gone. RFK Jr.’s sex life is supposedly notorious and besides the “character flaw” excuse, RINO Senators probably have all kinds of statements from all of the nominees they can harp about as their reason for not figuratively cutting their own throats by voting for Donald’s unfortunately totally unrealistic dream team.
Three of Trump’s Cabinet selections face allegations of sexual misconduct
Matt Gaetz, Pete Hegseth and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. face questions about their personal actions as well as their professional qualifications ahead of the Senate confirmation process.

Police report reveals new details from sexual assault allegation against Trump’s defense secretary nominee

“This FBI will end the growing crime epidemic in America, dismantle the migrant criminal gangs, and stop the evil scourge of human and drug trafficking across the Border. Kash will work under our great Attorney General, Pam Bondi, to bring back Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity to the FBI.”
Here’s an interesting take on President Trump’s statement on Kash Patel…Is President Trump stating Kash Patel will be ending the FBI and CIA’s domestic operations?
“And everyone lived happily ever after”
Maybe I should better phrase this comment to clarify my point:
“This FBI will end the growing crime epidemic in America that the FBI and CIA created, dismantle the migrant criminal gangs that the FBI and CIA created, and stop the evil scourge of human and drug trafficking across the Border that the FBI and CIA created. Kash will work under our great Attorney General, Pam Bondi, to bring back Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity to the FBI.”
Does this mean Kash Patel will be ending these FBI and CIA domestic operations?
Perhaps DJT chose that wording because it will be 2 years before Wray’s time is up and after that, Patel WILL be the “Next” Director
Or maybe he just wants Wray ti resign early, and believes this announcement will prompt him to do so
he also can fire him right off the bat.
Did he, or did he not fire Comey in his last administration before Comey’s 10-year term had ended?
I love it. Trump is in their heads at all times. Just think of the internal turmoil that so-called FBI is going thorough after this announcement. It is CLEAR that Trump IS going to fire Wray, one way or another. I can’t wait to see this play out…..
Christmas Greetings from Clay Higgins to Chris Wray.
Wray chose poorly.
Wray looks like a little snot nosed Frat Boy. Probably a little light in the Loafers.
NBC describes Ka$h as a Trump loyalist, who too often clashed with members of the intelligence community.
That’s more than good enough for me.
I smell Gloria Allred on the horizon with a few street walker ladies off the streets of LA with stories to tell
Or brought forth by her progeny, Lisa Bloom.
Trump is blowing up their heads and he is not even in the White House yet! He is a master! Remember…he plays and is a master of Chess. I think everything he says and everything he does, he does with and for a meaning and always stands by it.
Promises made….promises kept!
Draining the swamp! That’s the one I want fulfilled!
And that means watching certain individuals go down….justice taking them down….and we the people getting to witness it! It must happen…it is the most important of all his promises! We must get rid of the enemy within……and after all these years….we see and have a really good idea who they are!
Fwiw
“Draining a swamp” == removing water so what’s been hidden beneath the surface can be seen by those who care to look.
What to do about what’s seen due to “draining the swamp” == other phases which could include junk removal and restoration phases.
Believing that Trumps Project MAGA only involves the “Draining the Swamp” Phase can lead to flawed analysis, disappointed/impatient feels and diminishes ones ability to see, appreciate and give thanks for everything that’s already been accomplished.
Remember…it was Comey…before Wray. Wray came in and took over an already corrupted FBI. He didn’t do the corruption..he has been overseeing the corruption.
It would be quite interesting if…..and I say if…Wray….who was appointed by Trump after Trump fired Comey…was a sleeper. In position to document and store evidence of the corruption in the FBI all these years Biden has been in office…and prior…..to have the paper, documented evidence of crimes and corruption by said enemy.
You must look at this from the perspective of a war…like General Flynn has been telling us. And if you do that, then you know there are many things that are not as they seem or as they are presented. In war..there is purposeful disinformation. Leaked information. Individuals that pretend…..double agents if you will…..to be on one side, but in fact are actually on the other side.
Don’t think this kind of thing is going on? Then you are naive! It most certainly is going on!
And in fact…when we find out some of the deeper truths about what has been going on that most could not see….it will blow their minds!
I’m not saying Wray is this….Im saying these are things that ended to be considered. DNT is not alone, and did not accomplish this alone….in fact if up to him alone….he probably would have never done this! He was asked……he was shown some inside intelligence…and he was groomed to do what he is doing by military intelligence….
And not those woke idiots they put on tv to try to make you believe our military is a bunch of woke, trans, inept girly guys that wear skirts and pretend to be in the military.
The REAL MILITARY…..loves our country and our Constitution and will serve and protect it!
Question:
So why doesn’t one of the House committees subpoena a half of dozen of the DS culprits for public testimony for Friday 1/17 and when they refuse or don’t show up, PT arrests them at 12:01 on 1/20?
Now at least a half dozen are locked up for 90 days just like Navarro and Bannon for refusing a US subpoena and during these 90 days Kash and Pam work on uncovering possible other major crimes?
How brilliant would this be?
Mornings with Maria are touting this as a nomination. When quoting Trump’s announcement they are leaving out the part about “will serve as”. Marsha Blackburn is talking about how she will support the nomination. She is a big talker.
“She is a big talker”.
Thanks for the reminder.
This is one of the many reasons why I appreciate Senator Blackburn.
Conversely, Rand Paul is not big. In fact, he’s quite small. In more ways than one.
Scenario planning here, so take with a grain of salt:
Assume the first assassination attempt was a deep state hit with active government employees participating, including FBI and Trump transition team knows it. How long do you think Wray is going to stick around once Trump is inaugurated?
Just in time for the Sunday talk shows 🤭
Yes, Jake Sullivan saying Trump appointed Wray and since Biden did not remove him that is PROOF that Democrats don’t ever politicize the FBI (Ha,ha!)
Then Bill Barr’s accusation that Kash is not qualified was quoted and was summarily squashed by Senator Bill Hagerty.
Let the truth shine through starting TODAY!
Regarding what Alex mentioned on page2 of this thread about Kash being groomed for the FBI slot, perhaps this explains why he didn’t out Mary Mccord when he and Devin were confronted about their signatures fraudulently attached to a 702 renewal document Mike Rogers produced a few months ago. (forgot the entire story, but this was a moment when I think Sundance lowered his opinion of Kash). Basically, he didn’t want to have any attack vectors in his future confirmation hearing. Just a guess.
Battered Conservatives are vulnerable to relapses.
Avoiding relapses requires vigilance and even then, relapses are to be expected.
The key is to quickly realize when its happening. Then to make the necessary moves to quickly recover which minimizes damage done to oneself and others by the relapse.

President Trump on DAY ONE: “Director Wray, I have put you on indefinite ADMINISTRATIVE LEAVE, effective immediately.”
Director Wray: “You can’t do that to me.”
President Trump: “I have designated Kash Patel to SERVE as FBI Director to investigate the LEGALITY and ILLEGALITY of the actions taken during your FBI tenure, including the actions of those within and outside the Administrations who were COMPLICIT.”
Kash becomes the “CZAR of Government Integrity” with authority to draw on the full resources of the FBI, DOJ, DNI, NSA and the AGs & Law Enforcement Agencies of the 50 States. 😱
Message to Congress: Watch your backsides … and those of your donors … the moment any of you try to thwart the agenda and appointees of the People’s President.
Message to Judiciary: Same … including the backsides of those who anppointed you.
I don’t care to warn any of them. It’s be better if they all continue to act brazenly against the people’s wishes and against the Constitutional principles they swore oaths to defend.
Gives Pres. Trump more ammo with which to bury them.
-> Simply my cheeky mind-reading game.😉
“their cheeky backsides”??
They have chubby posteriors?
PDJT: “Oh, and Wray,.. you are now assigned to our new one man office that you will open and manage in Minot, ND. Be sure to take your winter clothes!” 🥶
Aka the “Japanese Rubber Room” treatment.
Or maybe Nome, Alaska, for a Three Dog Night???💨🥶🥶🥶
LOL! I *do* get your sarcasm, but I would permanently seperate Wray from the FBI and federal government entirely. Do that via immediate termination with prejudice (removal of all pension benefits earned from the earliest date of criminal findings, and permanently barred from ever again entering federal service directly or indirectly as a contractor or subcontractor or via any NGO), or via trial, conviction and sentencing to prison for 20 year minimum up to life depending on what treasonous / unConstitutional criminal charges they can successfully get him found guilty of committing or aiding.
We the people of ND don’t want him!
Yup. Let them keep thinking they control what ever it is they think they control.
They have got to be able to find Turtle and co with their hands in the cookie jar
This includes you, Rex Sinquefeld, and all your little donor buddies…
Happy New Year!!!!!!!! What fun this will be!
