With a party-line 12-10 vote from the Senate Judiciary Committee, FBI Director nominee Kash Patel is now set for the next phase of two votes in the full Senate. Majority Leader John Thune will now schedule a cloture vote to close debate and then a subsequent full senate confirmation vote.
WASHINGTON, Feb 13 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump’s pick to head the FBI, Kash Patel, won the approval of the Republican-controlled U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday, clearing the way for a vote to confirm a director who has called for a radical reshaping of the nation’s top law enforcement agency.
In a 12-10 party-line vote, the panel approved Patel’s nomination despite deep reservations by Democrats who said he is unfit to lead the bureau.
“We are inviting a political disaster if we put Kash Patel into this job,” said the panel’s top Democrat, Dick Durbin.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles Grassley, a Republican of Iowa, said Patel had been fully vetted and subjected to “relentless attacks on his character” throughout the confirmation process.
Patel’s nomination has not yet been scheduled for full Senate debate and votes. (read more)
According to Glenn Beck, on Kash Patel’s first day the confirmed FBI Director is going to release the list of Epstein clients.
And pathetic little Dementia Mitch will cast his irrelevant vote “No” vote.
Thanks for playing Mitch!
What is Mitch’s Motivation?
Impotent enmity?
Chinese chicanery?
Dude’s going out ugly.
Nope. His pick Thune got religion and Mitch is protest voting. (Welp his staffers are protest voting for yet another vegetable in office in DC.)
A little background on Thune…when he first ran for office, he was “one of us”.
I’m not hooked on hopium, but I keep thinking that he may be taking some steps to recover his morals.
Sundance has mentioned that Thune’s spouse has certain hopes that seem to have re-sparked Thune’s humanity.
McConnell is sliding to his grave with his legacy in flames, his successor not as solidly sin-bound as he had conspired to see.
Perhaps Thune, while watching the once powerful Mitch’s tumbling ball of flames, has found incentive to not be a repeat with his own ambitions.
Fine if he slides to his grave but he has to first make a stop at the federal prison to spend his last days before said grave.
Skip prison. Hell will be his punishment.
Never gonna happen, but nice dream anyway.
Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord.
Hand in hand with Pence.
These people are shape shifters that can and will change their form/will at the drop of the hat. Most got into politics to get rich, just like their predecessors. As Trump says, “We shall see.”
“Let’s see what happens.”
If his legacy, like most in Congress, was to acquire wealth while conspiring to destroy this country — well rest easy — he will retire (or expire) with his legacy intact. 👹🔥
May he join John McCain in the afterlife.👹🔥
I hope so. I will pray for him. I hope others do the same.
I will We are commanded to pray for our enemies…….
Here’s what I know. I’m glad Mcdrool knighted Thune instead of Cornyn. What a mess the Senate would be in now if that had been the case. Thune still has plenty of time to turn nasty but – so far… so good…
Would be nice. Wonder if the head of the GOP spoke with him?
Well, perhaps. With the grifting and money laundering being exposed on a daily basis, I think maybe this could be the reason some of these “lifers” are getting religion.
“Got religion” 😂 If only huh? Just like Mike Johnson, now that he has a real president over him he’s a tough conservative.
He’s a marshmallow.
Nope….he’s developed a case of slojo, and can no longer function. Next thing you see is him falling off the stage.
He’ll freeze frame several times before he burns.
Or the stairs leading to the stage.
I’ll take the big ugly for trillions, Alex.
Mitch’s wife told him to.
DOGE can answer that.
His mental, physical and emotional health has crumbled to the point that he is now a toddler again. Toddlers throw tantrums.
That’s all this is-a pathetic little tantrum from a pathetic little toddler trying to get attention.
Madam Chao needs to give him a good spanking.
Turtle, San Fran Nan, and The Drooling Vegetable are at the little kids table with bibs, still collecting their cut.
What does that say about us and our constitutional republic?
Not complicated. He simply hates Trump
He simply
hates Trumpcouldn’t find a way to make money while simultaneously supporting Trump and his goals for the country.No reason it can’t be both.
And look what that hate has done to him. It’s made him smaller than he ever was. Bless our great President Donald J. Trump.
Mitch’s mindset is the same as Liz Cheney’s. They want their old GOP back.
Haha! They want their old
GOPuniparty back.FIFY.
Pure spite. Bitterness. A contempt for Democracy.
What a truly pathetic and vile old man.
He has less humanity than Mr. Potter.
Did the apple fall far from the tree?
” More than a dozen parents have removed their children from an alternative, private school located in a rural upstate county amid complaints about disciplinary tactics by one teacher.
Claire McConnell, who apologized in a letter June 24, was accused of strapping one child into a chair with a leather belt, tying the hands of others and taping shut the mouths of some elementary school students, the Albany Times Union reported Thursday.
Parents said the tactics were out of character for the Hawthorne Valley School, a Waldorf school that designs programs to reflect the emotional, physical and intellectual development in children.
McConnell, daughter of U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., did not immediately return phone messages. “She’s a young teacher, a learning teacher,” Patrice Maynard, a teacher and mentor to McConnell, told the newspaper.” https://www.wave3.com/story/1364683/ky-senators-daughter-under-fire-for-teaching-tactics/
Mitch is motivated by his hatred of Trump.
CHYNA!
He’s done, he knows it. Doesn’t have to play nice anymore
Old man yelling at the sky.
That ugly
shell of a human
isn’t just ugly in the face.
-rotten to the core
He is dying. He dislikes Trump. He can act on his malice. He expects to die in this term, so his desire to conserve his power does not limit his malice
I hope he is right.
Mitch McConnell has completely lost control and he holds no more power. Period.
Good Riddance. TRAITOR
Obedience
Maybe Mitch’s motivation is that he is on the Epstein list. LOL!
He’s playing lead conductor on the Titanic Orchestra and his wife doesn’t get her considerable cheque till it sinks beneath the waves. (He thinks he has a lifeboat from the Carpathia waiting for him but he doesn’t know Trump sunk that with a secret EO last week…)
Interesting Titanic/Carpathia reference. Wife’s sister drove her electric car (or it got driven) into a pond. Maybe Mitch is worrying about whoever made that happen.
https://www.republicanleader.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/leader-mcconnell-and-senators-collins-cornyn-and-barrasso-meet-president-zelenskyy-in-kyiv
Perhaps this may have something to do with his hatred of President Trump.
Was he in on the grift?
Will DOGE uncover some dodgy contributions and wire transfers of some of the billions that Zelensky says never reached Ukraine….?
John McCain 2.0
Hate.
I’ve been wondering if Mitch and his wife are involved in the Fentanyl business?
Latest rumor has it, the stuff’s coming out of Taiwan…
and her family is in the shipping business.
McConnell knows Trump is determined
-to get the drug business stopped
-to prevent deaths of millions of US citizens every year and
-to punish those involved with the death penalty
He is married to The Foremost Group, a shipping and shipbuilding bidness based in Asia and his brother in law runs IDG Capital, also based in Asia.
He is a Globalist asshole.
He’s going full McCain
right he actually endorsed Trump.. Just biter old man his time on earth is short. #auditcongress535
Hatred of Donald Trump
He has none other than whoever is pushing his wheel chair! As for the way he’s voting, he has nothing to hide anymore….hes a rat, we all know it, he knows it……and he’s nust about gone.
Now….like Biden he is nothing more than a puppet for the demonrat party!
And by the way…..I agree with Durban…..Dick……oh, sorry maybe I have that backwards. But he days they are inviting a political disaster……he is right…….
The disaster is for them and they know it! Everything will lead back to Obama and the democrats. And they are worried Kash will go allmthe way back to the Russia Hoax, right up through the election theft of 2020.
Ya gotta admit….they are panicking and this is a GAS to watch!
the IC has protected Mitch …leveraged him might be a better term. His ties to china and all manner of corruption has been allowed, and not investigated provided he extends protection to the IC, namely FBI and CIA, Homeland, and DOD.
which he has done with his influence in the Senate, which is quite remarkable in scope. He seeded the same corruption to others.
He knows sees the tea leaves which are on fire. Even at his age, he knows he is in real real big trouble.
The People are going to learn some incredibly BIG UGLY things about specific people and in no small way, Mitch will find himself in many of these corrupt schemes.
prediction: we are about to learn how the FBI refused to investigate off shore holding for thousands and thousands AND THOUSANDS of people…many in Congress. many who are court judges. Many who are former Presidents. Many who are heads of agencies, governors, officials and all the way down the ladder.
when people say “deep state”…it’s always been a loosely construed means to describe a general intuition based on fact patterns that there are a group of people who are organized and that do coordinate schemes that create wars, skim from contracts, take advantage and trade on priviledged/insider information, and who also create shell companies offshore that get funneled money through various complex transactions to obscure the links between the ownership parties and where the money originated.
noting: this the real reason Joe malarkey pardoned his spawn. He was told to do it. Told to do it, because it had the potential in court discovery to learn things that the IC did not want made public. And of course, he also pardoned his dump because he is a cheat and liar. Which explains why he was installed and the election defrauded to get him in. They needed the MOST corrupt person alive and it was bonus that he lost his marbles.
now all of that has changed. We have real American Patriots who take their responsibilities very very serious. it’s not a cliche to Kash. he has never been on the take. He is about to yank the curtains down and light a fire.
This is good. We need to see this era of corruption end and people go to prison…removed far away from power….and a strong message for THE WHOLE WORLD TO WITNESS>
AMERICANS WILL NOT TOLERATE CRIMINALS>
PERIOD!
God Bless America
Well said!
👹🔥
jealousy
There are trillions at stake. Shall I repeat. It’s allllllllll about money.
Mitch et al have been bought with a price…
Unfortunately for them,
Their price was not the shed blood of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sin…
Their ilk are headed for a faceful of
“I never knew you,
Depart from me you workers of iniquity”
If one can read this, one still has a choice…
In God We Trust
Trust God
Fear not
He is UNIPARTY
Great to see McConnell’s power dwindle.
Then we can say he’s racist and sexist. No to Tulsi and no to Kash
He’s so petulant.
I vote NO on Mitch!
He sold his soul for 30 pieces of silver. He has now choice. He’s a puppet.
He sold his soul for 30 pieces of tarnished silver.
Mitch gets a well deserved participation trophy. That’s it. Please, someone get Mitch some Viagra.
Kash is the man. He knows “ where the bodies are buried “ so to speak. Hope JD Vance is around this vote may go to a tie breaker. I pray it doesn’t come to this
Kash ‘knows where the bodies are buried’
Having been let down for the last 40+ years, I wouldn’t stake my hat on that.
Kash is a positive – may even do great things,
but take a breath – have a beer – and wait for the horses to line up at the gate before calling the race.
Bondi has not covered herself in glory in her first days. Does she know it’s peddle to the metal?
Kash needs massive layoffs of any FBI agent involved in J6 investigations. They are tainted. Anything less than that is failure. I could give a rats ass about Epstein or JFK or RFK, or MLK.
You reminded me of Secretariat… who always came from behind the field to win.
Secretariat was like a steam locomotive. Slow to get rolling, but once under way just keeps going faster and pulling harder. Once at full snort, don’t get in the way.
<Kash is the man.>
Yes, for surviving the committee hearing…
You have to give Kash credit 🙂
I see what you did there…
After watching pencil neck question Kash, I wanted to put my foot through the TV. NOW he’s on Kash’s radar screen big time.
Kash and Schiff have a history from HPSCI.
I just watched Todd Blanche’s confirmation hearing. Blanche took no garbage from anybody, but especially not from Schiff.
Todd Blanche seems like he will be a very good, no-nonsense DAG. Emil Bove seems to have been very busy doing God’s work as the Acting DAG.
Todd Blanche might need JD Vance to cast a tie-breaking vote. Once that is finished, DOJ should be off to a great start. Very glad to see the Blanche/Bove band sticking together.
He’s on a mission now. I pray he gets confirmed, and that he doesn’t disappoint.
Oh, Wordman, you’re such a joy! Thank you, always!
Glad you didn’t say you’d have to give him cash!
Kash Patel’s ‘Government Gangsters’ Official Movie Trailer (2024)…
Watch full movie at: https://stream.warroom.film/content/government-gangsters
If he knows, he’s had many years to reveal “where the bodies are buried”.
He didn’t need a title to do so.
He made a crap ton of money off of suckers who want to know where the bodies are buried, in tee shirts, mugs, and his book that only named names already revealed by Sundance.
Let’s hope he makes it to the tie breaker. Got some pretty unpredictable people on our side of the aisle.
Watch out for Killary

The Evil that lurks in the hearts of man>
She’s definitely a shadowy figure 🙂
“Majority Leader John Thune will now schedule a cloture vote to close debate and then a subsequent full senate confirmation vote.”
I am seeing rumors that a number of Senators want to waste more tax dollars and go to Munich for this security conference.
As if they have anything to contribute.
Anyway, they are trying to convince Thune to punt all confirmation activity until next week, including a vote on Patel.
With the billions of dollars in fraud uncovered, they need to do their job and confirm him.
True: Schedule is here: https://x.com/SenateCloakroom/status/1890141586786582548
So President Trump’s 17th cabinet member won’t be confirmed until February 18th?
You don’t say.
https://truthsocial.com/@JustLikeGizmo/posts/113999328608829206
Grins.
Its all good.
He’ll be confirmed.
If the Senate is out then quickly put Matt Gaetz in there as a recess appointment to do a lot of damage in a short amount of time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You didn’t click the link, did you?
you really think it will go down like that? I don’t
It’s Q nonsense
PDJT holds a fistful of marbles.
Play MAGA for me.

That too.
Though sometimes it takes a brutal squeeze to do the trick.
💀 🙏 💀
The spectre of the Epstein list has the democrats scared witless.
I’m still in too-good-to-be-true mode. If it is released, it had better be every single name. Friend or foe.
This hasn’t been hidden from us to protect many good guys who are legit patriots. 100% it will hit the deep state/globalist connected hierarchy hardest.
DON’T care about Epstein. Fire all FBI involved in J6.
It’s a pretty safe bet that Kash can walk and chew gum at the same time.
As Col Schlicter has said, it IS time to kick them when they are down, to keep the boot on the throat.
The J6 FBI pigs will get theirs. Those who hold power and used it to satisfy their sick, satanic urges must be held to account.
As Brother Dave Gardner said: ” When a man’s down, kick him. Gives him incentive to rise above it.”
I for one, do care about shaming and jailing paedophiles. (Paging John Roberts.)
Probably more than a handful of Republicans as well…
List. Make that plural. ListS. 🤔
You think its just democrats that are scared? Saying that he would release the list may have sealed his doom as director.
Whatever pain Kash Patel dishes out to the FBI they deserve that…times 10!
“According to Glenn Beck, on Kash Patel’s first day the confirmed FBI Director is going to release the list of Epstein clients.”
Which means the list could have been released long ago.
Durbin has been desperately going on any media show he can whining about how Patel is unfit/unqualified for the job. For whatever reason, he is desperate to keep that Epstein list secret.
I think a lot of people want that list keep secret.
All I know is the list had best have some serious names that we know, not piddly wink unknowns. Beck loves to play the game so who knows?
Let’s accept the truth as it comes. A lot of them are going to be unknowns, by the public, but not by the connected.
Little Dick really needs to retire.
Little Dick and the Pillsbury Doughboy are STILL Moving CHITOWN MONEY Around…
I worked with Kash Patel to expose the Russia hoax and know he’s the best pick to reform the FBI
Fake news outlets don’t typically attack congressional staffers by name, but they made an exception for Kash
https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/i-worked-kash-patel-expose-russia-hoax-know-hes-best-pick-reform-fbi
Best we got to tame an out of control beast.
Gaetz was the best pick.
I’d like to see him get an Inspector General position for the IRS or the DOJ. 😀
and give me three examples where IGs have been effective. I can wait.
Here are two who were fired because they were effective
Americorp
In CNCS Inspector General Gerald Walpin’s case he blew the whistle in 2008 on former NBA basketball star, Sacramento mayor, and active Obama supporter Kevin Johnson for misappropriating $850,000 that AmeriCorp had granted to St. Hope Academy. AmeriCorps is an initiative of the Corporation for National and Community Service [CNCS]; and St. Hope Academy is a Sacramento-based school founded by Kevin Johnson.
May 20, 2009 there was a contentious meeting in which Mr. Walpin chastised the board of the Corporation for National and Community Service for failing to exercise oversight over AmeriCorps grants. A couple weeks later on June 4 Walpin released two reports highly critical of the Corporation for National and Community Service, which he was charged to oversee. One of the reports dealt with the agency’s handling of a case involving suspicions of misuse of federal grant money by Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson.
On Thursday evening June 11, Mr. Obama fired Gerald Walpin, Inspector General for the Corporation for National and Community Service. He offered no public reason for doing so other than that he “no longer” had “the fullest confidence” in Mr. Walpin (as if he knew Walpin at all). (However, two days earlier, according to White House visitor logs, Alan Solomont, CNCS’s former board chairman (and Obama nominee for Ambassador to Spain), had a meeting with Michelle Obama’s then-chief of staff, Jackie Norris, who had just been slated for a high position at the CNCS.
Mr. Walpin had “absolutely” no doubt that his firing was retaliation for his sharp criticism of the Corporation for National and Community Service and for clashes with its Obama-appointed chairman, Alan Solomont, a Democrat closely allied with the Obama Administration.
Senator Charles E. Grassley, Iowa Republican, questioned the firing and the explanation for it, saying that “There have been no negative findings against Mr. Walpin by the Integrity Committee of the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency, and [Mr. Walpin] has identified millions of dollars in Americorps funds either wasted outright or spent in violation of established guidelines.
Amtrak
The case of Inspector General Fred Weiderhold, though different in the details, was not much different in its general nature. Weiderhold was the Amtrak Inspector General for a long time and had a commendable record for exposing waste, fraud, and abuse. However, when he submitted a report, independently confirmed by a former Federal prosecutor, charging that Amtrak’s managers had interfered with the oversight of the railroad’s $1.3 Billion piece of Obama’s Stimulus package, Amtrak’s management forced Fred Weiderholder to retire essentially on the spot. The details are not part of the public record despite Sen. Grassley protested concerning the highly questionable circumstances and illegal procedures of Weiderhold’s firing.
Besides their highly suspicious circumstances, the abrupt dismissals both of Walpin and Weiderhold were improper because they were effected without the 30 day notice to Congress required by law. However, there was no scandal because a) both Houses of Congress were firmly in the hands of the Democratic party, which was not about to raise any fuss that would sully their recently elected Democratic President; and b) quite possible for the same reason, the legacy media barely reported these incidents and did not in the slightest follow up or put any pressure of publicity on the government concerning the obvious irregularities of these cases.
Yipppeee Kay Yay, ____s
💀 🙏 💀
I will be interested to see Director Patel’s plan for revamping FBI academy training and hiring/retention standards. There also needs to be a significant cultural change.
And btw, it would not hurt to detail agents to ICE to gain some practical field experience.
I would tell him to quit hiring lawyers
Bring the reckoning!
I read the Miami Herald articles about Epstein before it was mainstream. Something glossed over by most is the thread of the Bush family throughout the Epstein investigation and original plea deal. The cover-up ended when attorney Brad Edwards filed the federal Crime Victims’ Rights suit. Then it became national headlines.
I cannot wait for the Epstein List.
Due credit to Mike Cernovich for his role in uncovering what was buried too.
No one has really delved into Judge Sweet, pedophile protector.
That is a tale that needs to be fully excavated and told.
That is the one I was trying to remember Valuetainment! Patrick Bet-David. I like him, but the others on his show not so much.
Time will tell. All I know is people are HUNGRY for action.
“We are inviting a political disaster if we put Kash Patel into this job,” said the panel’s top Democrat, Dick Durbin.
For whom?
Ha ha ha, of course people like Durbin drool of disaster. It has to be viewed as the end of the world when all your dirty, perverted, corrupt, anti-American secrets are going to be revealed.
Durbin goes to sleep at night and dreams of taking Republican scalps.
Chicago politician.
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
WE don’t know what they have on us! Mad Max strikes again.
I’m sure she has a pretty good idea and i’m glad she said, “Us”. At least she realizes the extent of their corruption.
BINGO! Exactly!
One man’s political disaster is every non-swamp creature’s best comedy ever.
Epstein’s Client List will have been
disappeared“accidentally lost due to a technical glitch, fire, or burst pipe” somewhere between the Ark of The Covenant, Hillary’s Bathroom Email Server, and Obama’s birth certificate and college transcripts.Yeah buddy!
But here’s hoping we’re wrong.
Haha yeah, I can almost see it. Kash calls for the list to be brought to him. A strong wind snatches it from the courier’s hand, and a raven carries it away. Said raven cashes into a Chinese spy balloon moments before a direct energy weapon turns it into a cloud of flames. The next ten years will be variations of 1)that wasn’t the real letter, it’s still floating around. 2) China built the raven. 3) mossad built the laser. Or something to that effect. It’s past my bedtime lol.
I believe the list will have been tampered with–a “new list” with names of GOP. It wouldn’t surprise me if the added our guy’s name.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the FBI that has it, if higher ups didn’t change the names on the list.
They are evil.
“Epstein’s Client List will have been
disappeared……..”That list is far to valuable for so many people to be destroyed. Lots of copies made by lots of shady characters needing an “insurance policy.” And another thing to consider is chain of custody. If it’s believed that many parties of differing interests have copies, then it can cast doubt as to authenticity, which will be the #1 defense of anyone found to be “on the list.”
Just give us the unredacted aircraft passenger log.
The hilldog probably has that.
With the new FBI director in place, I want to see several special prosecutors appointed to investigate and criminally prosecute the following:
1. A special prosecutor to investigate and prosecute Corrupt FBI PERSONNEL, PAST AND PRESENT, esp. with regards to J6 and the Russia hoax against President Trump.
2. Special prosecutors to investigate and prosecute all those who committed fraud, mismanagement and embezzlement of billions of dollars as uncovered by DOGE.
3. SPECIAL PROSECUTOR TO INVESTIGATE THE CIA AND CRIMINALLY CHARGE THOSE WHO COMMITTED TREASON AND PLOTTED TO OVERTHROW OTHER FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS. They should be charged with war crimes.
4. Special prosecutors for FEMA .
5. Special Prosecutor to investigate the WuFlu Plandemic.
Can’t wait to see Kash go to work!
I despised McCain for what he did on the Obama Care vote…What a TOOL!!! Cocaine Mitch is following in his shoes and a close second at this point…RINOs are pathetic…
It’s Go Time!
Let all the “honorable rank & file” take one step forward & show themselves now (start talking & coming clean on what’s really been going on). It’s time for these 3 letter creatures to start eating themselves until they self cleanse their own agency. It’s the only way it can be done, from within.
If they are not willing to do the hard thing in order to salvage themselves then dissolve the agency in disgrace. turn over each investigation to the State LE agencies those reside in & all others to the Secret Service until a replacement plan can be instituted.
Primary Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) and Sen. Todd Young (R-IN) for their despicable actions during these hearings.
Let’s say they don’t approve Kash. I’m sure Trump has a backup.
See upthread.
Full control.
Down to the exact day.
He’ll be approved. The theater of absurd is losing steam. No one in govt is afraid of Ka$h Patel. No one. He loves him some FISA-702.
And he thinks the rank and vile agents who lied to the parents of little girls being repeatedly raped, by saying they were investigating when, by their own admission they were not, are super swell people who just need a better boss.
Until tomorrow when a Biden “judge” or an Obama “judge” rules that the Senate is not allowed to have a confirmation vote for Kash.
Trump must have some judicial red-lines that he has held close to his vest up to this point, despite his public statements that he will obey the court rulings but fight them all the way to the top through the appeals process.
You know it’s coming soon and you can already smell it, a “judge” who is going to issue an injunction to stop all DOGE activity and all DOGE personnel from having any government access. A full shutdown or stoppage of DOGE is coming from one of these so-called “judges.”
Will Trump continue to comply with these unconstitutional, unsupported, and sophmoric rulings? “Run out the clock” is being played out again, just like the first Trump administration.
The judicial branch is trying to nullify the 2024 election
and make sure the money keeps flowing.Just happened.
A corrupt judge just ruled that ALL USAID money had to be sent out .
DC ,Biden appointed…
All the Senate has to do is start impeachment investigations into all these “judges”. And go warp speed on the investigation part. Watch how fast they all start back peddling.
Separation of powers. A judge cannot rule that the Senate cannot have a confirmation vote for Kash.
Yesterday, somebody on the presidential thread posted an excellent substack article from Coffee and COVID. What the author proposed sounded exactly correct to me…and made me relax and smile.

Sherry, thanks for that excellent link! I totally enjoyed reading every single word!
You are welcome. I wish I could have remembered the name of the treeper who originally posted that link.
“Until tomorrow when a Biden “judge” or an Obama “judge” rules that the Senate is not allowed to have a confirmation vote for Kash.” Sarcasm.
Right on cue, the Trump administration is being sued to stop DOGE. A leftist judge will do it, IMO. Will this be a red-line for Trump?
14 states sue Musk and Trump, calling billionaire’s role unconstitutional:
https://thehill.com/policy/technology/5144185-states-elon-musk-doge-lawsuit/
Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn told Charlie Hurt the Democrats are sweating blood popsicles about Kash Patel being confirmed as FBI Director because he knows what Adam Schiff and other Dem did to promote the Trump-Russian collusion hoax in Trump’s first term.
“I think, too they are very fearful of Kash Patel because he knows what Adam Schiff and some of the others did with Russia collusion, and they know that he knows the dirt on them…and I think they’re fearful of what he’s going to do and what he’s going to reveal and what he’s going to make known to the American people.” Blackburn said on “Fox & Friends” Sunday.
I hope she is right….more than ANYBODY…. I want to see Schiff CRUCIFIED…..with railroad spikes…..But it is a lonnnnggggg list and virtually no difference in my distain and disgust between them….but somebody has to be FIRST……
I’m thinking once everyone is in place and DOGE has completed and compiled their findings….that
TRUMPS FIRST STATE OF THE UNION SPEECH….. will likely have the GLOBAL viewership of the Super Bowl or a World Cup playoff/final……. and he will have the facts figures and (hopefully indictments) unambiguous Alpha Statesman status….. and likely ,hopefully, a Ukraine deal done …a Gaza solution agreed to….. and a 3 way nuclear disarmament deal on the table…..
“Both President Trump and Elon Musk believe the only reason for the outrageous and egregious government spending is to feed a massive money laundering scheme designed to enrich corrupt politicians and their friends. Those involved wanted President Trump dead because they knew he would expose the scheme.”
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/02/this-is-why-they-want-trump-dead-exposure/
The CIA runs those programs.
If you’d listen to Mike Benz, you’d hear the tale of USAID.
Also, the money raised for kickbacks, for NGOs, for donors, etc. is used to run the election stealing.
Hence, DOGE is the beginning of the death of electorial distortion of governance.
Their means are being exsanguinated, their schemes soon brought to full sunlight.
2026 will be the most mandate affirming mid-term of our lifetimes.
In regards to that last paragraph, I wonder whose heads rolled when they failed to install cackles.
Is he, or was he, with the Sea Eye A?
I want to know if Sundance positioned your post directly after my post, so it would read,
LionTigerBear, OhMy
or if that was just a coincidence. In either case it made me laugh!
I’m sure it’s true, and he clicked his red high heels together as he did it! LOL!
FINALLY!
Acting US Attorney in New York and five other prosecutors quit after being told to drop Eric Adams case
New York
CNN
—
Three senior Justice Department officials in New York and Washington resigned Thursday instead of complying with orders from the Trump administration to dismiss the corruption case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
The flurry of resignations in protest represents the sharpest rebuke to date of the President Donald Trump’s team leading the Justice Department, which has spent its opening weeks in office firing prosecutors connected to the cases against Trump and demanding information about the thousands of FBI agents involved in the investigations of the January 6 attack on the US Capitol.
In an eight-page letter, Danielle Sassoon quit her post as acting US attorney for the Southern District of New York instead of dropping the Adams case, saying the New York mayor’s attorneys “repeatedly urged what amounted to a quid pro quo” to help Trump on immigration if the case was dropped.
(Remember when AG Garland ordered the SDNY to drop the campaign finance charges against Sam Bankman-Fried because the politicians who rec’d the stolen funds were Democrats like Schumer, Nadler and Schiff which would have led to numerous Democrats being indicted? Well, in a sign of selective integrity not one of the prosecutors in the SDNY resigned in protest!)

One man’s rebuke is another man’s good riddance. CNN still irrelevant as ever.
Is Glenn Beck trying to sabotage his nomination?
Glen Beck is trying to maintain viewership, i.e. ratings, and will say whatever he feels will draw attention to himself.
Glenn Beck’s aim probably is to be first with the story.
This is exactly what he did years ago when Texas was finally going to run a true federalist for Governor. After his (and his friend Pat’s) interview with her, she was cooked. That election would have been a game changer for Texas if he would have never interfered.
Everything the American people want that supports liberty is a disaster to the Democrats. Sticking with Trump’s agenda is a disaster to the Democrats, so of course they call it a disaster. Escaping Marxism and furthering protection of liberty is a disaster to the Democrats. Having Trump as President and a Republican majority in both houses is a disaster to the Democrats. I expect they’ll continue to squeal and whine and complain and do the crap they’ve always done. Shiff’s horrible behavior to Kash is just one example. Commies will do anything — ANYTHING — to get their way (hint; lie, cheat, steal, kill, embezzle, abuse, etc.).
Is a disaster to the Uniparty!!!
“We are inviting a political disaster if we put Kash Patel into this job,” said the panel’s top Democrat, Dick Durbin.
From your lips to God’s ears, dick.
Durbin is merely speaking to his audience. The issue for Durbin is his audience is shrinking day by day.
If he’s shrinking day by day, maybe he should welcome someone turning up the heat………
Yes, Dick, from YOUR particular view. Not from MY view. And I think I am not alone.
“We are inviting a political disaster if we put Kash Patel into this job,” said the panel’s top Democrat, Dick Durbin.
Sheeesh, Dickie, I’m already sold on the Patel nomination for the job. You don’t have to keep convincing me…….
You mean their top demon.
They are trying to delay the vote on Kash Patel. The FBI has those “burning barrels” going around the clock like the Nazi’s at the end of World War II. They also have a bunch of goons in the basement smashing computer hard drives with sledge hammers.
Any fired FBI employees who worked there in the last twenty years should be declared UNEMPLOYABLE.
Gnome, we have reached the point in this movie where Team Patriot is both writing the script for and directing The Show (in the Mencius Moldbug American Cathedral sense of the word).
The vote was moved to the 18th for alignment with certain prior comms. Moved by Team Patriot.
There will probably be all sorts of Mockingbird angst posts about oh, dear, Kash is going down, oh dear, it’s a bad pick, oh dear oh my oh dear oh my, as the DS twists in the wind and tries to find an exit strategy.
= Exit ramps closed =
The fact is, Kash Patel’s position as incoming FBI director has been secure since “Kashyap Patal – name to remember” was posted back in 2018.
So. No worries. Go play some rounds of golf or go skiing this weekend. Enjoy, knowing Tuesday is coming.
For the DS, however,
Nessun Dorma
A senator or two on the Judiciary committee may have submitted further questions for Kash. If so, his confirmation vote could not be scheduled until a certain number days had elapsed from the time he returned his written responses.
Chuck Grassley made that point at the end of Todd Blanche’s hearing, so you know it is standard procedure.
According to Glenn Beck, on Kash Patel’s first day the confirmed FBI Director is going to release the list of Epstein clients.
This must be the “political disaster” Dick Durbin is worrying about.
And maybe other dark exposures that get sunlight.
The Turtle has reached the level of senility that Biden occupied. He doesn’t know what is going on.
If the Epstein Client List must be retrieved from some FBI manager within the organization, it won’t be available to Kashyap on Day #1. Aren’t there “layers” of gate-keepers with these things?
Good question. Maybe we’ll find out next week. But I bet Kash has a good idea of what he’ll be stepping into if he is confirmed.
DOGE.
Bring it on!
My opinion is that Epstein was an intelligence operation. He did not run a pedophilia ring because pedophilia is sexually activity with an person under the age of puberty.
I have zero respect for Epstein’s grifting 17 year-old accusers. The whole circus is about making money for opportunistic accusers.
Oh, and Prince Andrew is innocent of any sexually bad behavior.
But I understand the Epstein obsession is a honey pot for social conservatives.
Tell me how I’m wrong.
Seriously.
.
Something serious enough for President Trump to ban Mr. Epstein, from Mar Al Lago.

And Prince Andrew was also known as “Randy Andy”…and “Air Miles Andy”.
Not often we get a defender for such creeps.
By their bait shall ye know them.
Yep, I take my lead from the reaction of the Royal Family. Right or wrong, they’d at least know best.
So, you just lowered the age of consent to some kind of physical exam.
Welcome to the dark ages.
Got a list and checkin it twice, gonna find out about whose been naughty and vice.
Kash Patel’s ice hockey team in DC, “The Dons” recently won another championship in their league.
Word is Kash is a solid stay at home defenseman, is tenacious in winning puck battles and getting into those dirty areas, knows how and when to rush the puck, is not afraid of a little contact and most importantly knows how to find “where Momma hides the cookies”.
Soft hands, can dish the sauce and has some nice lettuce too. That is one tasty salad, sir. Needs to work of his celly though. ;),

Anything Dick Durbin says you can bet your bottom dollar the opposite is true. He is an evil waste of carbon.
Maybe Glenn Beck shouldn’t have announced that, as it might deter some of the. Republican Senators from approving Patel. Just a thought.
I hope he’ll investigate Hillary Clinton’s kidney. my mother (Joan Ellis) was murdered after they stole her kidney! Baptist Hospital Little Rock Ar. 2017. They murdered her to hide what they did. If anyone can help… This is a LIE – Bernie Sanders Donates Kidney to Hillary Clinton, Saves Her Life
Looks like my comments are going into oblivion. my website is censored as well. no biggy. I’ll be writing Kash Patel concerning Hillary Clinton’s kidney and my mother’s kidney theft and subsequent murder by Baptist Hospital in Little Rock Arkansas, hell bill Clinton was there Praising this hospital! I’ll see if he’s who he says he is!
Before President Trump was elected the first time there were predictions that the economy would collapse and that he would be a disaster for the USA. There have been many disaster predictions like those of Dick Durbin but they have all failed so why should anyone believe him now?
He (Kash Patel) will devastate the criminals in congress #auditcongress535……I watched some of the democrats go after him they are scared to death they know what’s coming not revenge not retribution total annihilation its going to be so much fun to watch now that the shoe is on the other foot…
“According to Glenn Beck, on Kash Patel’s first day the confirmed FBI Director is going to release the list of Epstein clients.”
Is Beck snorting Cheeto dust again? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Democrats hate RFK jr. because he will ruin their money stream from big pharma, but they hate and fear Kash Patel the most because he knows where all their skeletons are buried.
ICE is busy rounding up illegals in Southern Minnesota. Looks like they will stick around for awhile. Twin Cities, Minneapolis and St Paul, have many illegals. Another local news source was complaining that businesses where the illegals reside in Minneapolis are losing business because people aren’t shopping at the ethnic stores any longer. Tim Walz Sanctuary State is falling apart. Democrats screeching.

“According to Glenn Beck, on Kash Patel’s first day the confirmed FBI Director is going to release the list of Epstein clients.”
bwaahahaha hahahaha hahaha **deep breath** hahahahahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
does anyone really believe that will ever get released? perhaps go to a “committee” for dissemination (like the one for the JFK, ML King files that Anna Paulina is handling now)…and drip some stuff over time then we will all get bored…there is a OMG O’Keefe video out there of a gov’t employee explaining how they use “form a committee” to handle things they want to put out to die….this is certainly one of them. Don’t hold your breath people!
I want Kash Patel to followup on the private investigation of the ringleaders in the plot to assassinate our president.
💀 👹
Who in the demoncrap party? Was a certain governor part of this conspiracy? Specific names in various agencies– state and federal– I want the facts revealed, and prosecutions launched. ☠️ 👹
The JFK, Martin Luther King (etc.) maneuvers of assassinating threats to the Blob and their 💰 must be exposed and indicted.
“We are inviting a political disaster if we put Kash Patel into this job,”
Hey Dick Dirtbag, are you referring to the same kind of disaster that you Democrats had no problem plummeting the country into during the 2020 selection of Joe Biden? Now THAT was and still is a political disaster!
