FBI Director Kash Patel makes his first television appearance on Fox News to discuss his mission priority within the FBI. Defending the honorable rank and file FBI agents, Kash Patel notes his intention is to focus on the massive increase in violent crime that has come as an outcome of open borders and illegal alien inflows.
Kash Patel has a long relationship with both Trey Gowdy and current CIA Director John Ratcliffe going back to the days when Patel was the lead staffer for Devin Nunes on the House Intelligence Committee, and Gowdy with Ratcliffe were selected to review the FISA application at the center of ‘Russiagate.’
Mr. Gowdy puts the number of honorable FBI officials at 95% and Director Patel agrees, saying he wants to return to the time when he and his family would invite FBI agents for a cup of coffee. Patel then emphasizes he has already addressed the bad actors within the FBI and will continue to hold the internal investigative officers accountable with a zero-tolerance approach.
During the interview Trey Gowdy wants to emphasize how qualified Kash Patel is for this role in the FBI, delivering effusive praise for his mentee and friend, Director Patel. Gowdy calls Kash Patel the ’employee of the month’ for his excellence and brilliance in his first 30-days. WATCH:

The video is gone from youtube – anyone know where else to find it?
Searched but nothing found
I finally found it on a site called Daily Motion – Since I have not watched anything online related to fox, I didn’t even know there was a show called one on one – Trey Gowdy
Kash can keep uttering this nonsense till the cows come home. There are no 95% good guys in the FBI. Our own eyes have shown us that. Have we found the guys who pawed through Melania’s lingerie? Have we found the guys who strutted around Mar A Lago like it was the mansion of a Cartel boss. Have we named and shamed the folks who wouldn’t allow a triple amputee assistance into their vans. Well until that happens I’m upset. That is the very least any of us should expect.
If the FBI rank and file is “95% good guys” then there should have been thousands of whistleblowers lined up to testify against the 5% at the top. Since this was not even close to the case . . . . . .
astute
Let’s not forget the kneeler’s paying homage to ANTIFA punks passing by, as they march to break windows and set fires to small businesses. 95%? Pah! You’ve got it backwards; 95% FBI are coastal academic, elitist brown shirts. Unredeemable.
Oh Kash! This is not very inspiring.
As for Trey Horn Leg Horn, well, we’ve known you’re a double agent for some time now.
From what I can see, you clowns are slowing the T-Train down.
Always remember: Hitler, Stalin, and Mao did not kill millions of people—their public sector workers did.
What about the agents who raided Mar-a-Lago, the residence of President Trump and his family down in Palm Beach, Florida? What about the agents who aided the deranged Jack Smith or Robert Mueller? What about the agents who harassed, arrested, and jailed the J6ers?
Will they all get away with the “Nuremberg Defense”: I vaz chust follovink orders!?
We need moral clarity on this.
And remember a large number of J6’ers were arrested in the middle of the night by 20-30 fbi swat teams !
Always remember: Hitler, Stalin, and Mao did not kill millions of people—their public sector workers did.
What a great line. I’ll never forget that one!
Read Hannah Arendt’s book Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil. She explores the concept of the “banality of evil” through her reporting on Adolf Eichmann’s trial, illustrating how an ordinary and mediocre man, rather than being inherently evil, became complicit in horrific acts through his unthinking obedience to authority and bureaucratic structures.
That is the lesson both sides did not want to learn. It is easier to create a Bond-style, grotesque supervillain…
A larger-than-life villain is easier to identify, demonize, and fight against. It avoids confronting the more uncomfortable, complex truth that evil often comes from ordinary people making incremental, bureaucratic decisions—like Eichmann, who was “chust dooink” his job, “followink orders.” A clear-cut, villainous “other” makes it easier to place blame and rally people against a concrete target, rather than questioning the systems and structures that allow such evil to happen in the first place. It is a form of cognitive simplification: it is much harder to tackle the banality of evil than it is to defeat a Bond-style villain.
You have furthered the excellence of your original remark.
Similarly, we must not let super villains hide behind the simple lower level staff doing their deeds. For instance, the current tabulations of the greatest theft in history can not succumb to absurdity. The crimes uncovered by DOGE are prerequisite to horrors like Eichmann should society refuse to face them.
I will check out the book. You have made excellent observations, please post often.
Unfortunately, that is easier said than done. But DOGE gave us one thing, and that is the abundance of sunlight. People are catching on to the grift. The pressure is mounting.
But again, unfortunately, this admin is very lenient with people who tried to jail, bankrupt, and off their boss. The worst thing that happened to them so far was being fired.
“… Patel then emphasizes he has already addressed the bad actors within the FBI …”
Does this include the “bad FBI actors” in charge of covering up the Los Vegas slaughter Patel ??
Really Kash? Why haven’t we the people heard about how they were punished ?
Plenty of bad actors. I guess 80+ percent of the FBI workforce.
Thus, this is why Kash went on a Deep-State-Friendly show..pre-approved questions.
Mass firing for cause would be a good first step.
The ONLY ACCEPTABLE first step,
100 percent!
Rat killer is 0.005% poison.
I don’t mind Kash being publicly generous toward the FBI institution. That’s appropriate for a leader. But any connection to Gowdy troubles me. Gowdy had Comey dead to rights in a committee hearing on Clinton’s email server scandal, then threw it away by citing that intent, which has nothing to do with the criminality of the pertinent statute, could not be proven. It was the same excuse Comey himself had used to not prosecute Clinton, and it was so lame it’s hard to believe it was not intentional.
Can’t stand slimey, phoney, lying Trey.
Gowdy is a snake.
He is, but he is not a problem. He is out of power. He does a TV show. Just change the channel. That’s it.
It is ‘Ka$h Yap’ Patel who decided to talk to him. He went on a show knowing full well nobody will ask him any tough questions.
AGREED………GOWDY IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED!
He’s with FOX for crying out loud! He joined the other side….e an as he was already with them in Congress!
But he made it look and sound good!
I do, very much so! The FBI is rotten to the core.
“This video has been removed by the uploader”
I am starting to see this more and more often, which is less and less surprising in these days of ever-increasing message and information control.
If a video has been introduced into the public domain, it should remain in the public domain, especially if it is considered news worthy; otherwise, it is an act of censorship.
For the time being, relying on videos (of all types) for documentation of news is evidently simply not good enough.
I hope in this case a transcript is preserved as a weak safeguard against censorship.
Just refresh the page. This always works for me.
I guess Kash and Trey don’t read CTH. Pity.
They do. They need to know what the enemy thinks. That’s right–we are their enemies. We ask them these annoyingly tough questions and remind them of the promises they made on the way up (or down, depending on your perspective).
Kash, Dan, and Bondi—these people are all in it for themselves. Careers, book deals, TV gigs, money, industry contracts…
I am not a fan of George Zimmerman–like Gen Mike Fllynn, he was a moron–but he was a transparently innocent moron, and Ms. Bondi knew it. That is her true character.
Well, I’m not sure that losing all of MAGA will be a good business decision for Bongino’s and Kash’s future books / podcasts.
When President Trump went to the DOJ (March 14?) it was like he was taking a victory lap. In his speech he said:
“… we must be honest about the lies and abuses that have occurred within these walls. Unfortunately, in recent years, a corrupt group of hacks and radicals within the ranks of the American government obliterated the trust and goodwill built up over generations. They weaponized the vast powers of our intelligence and law enforcement agencies…. They spied on my campaign, launched one hoax and disinformation operation after another, broke the law on a colossal scale. Persecuted my family, staff and supporters, raided my home Mar-A-Lago and did everything within their power to prevent me from becoming the president of the United States…. But these are people that are bad people, really bad people. They tried to turn America into a corrupt communist and third world country…. Our predecessors turned this Department of Justice into the Department of Injustice.… So now, as the chief law enforcement officer in our country, I will insist upon and demand full and complete accountability for the wrongs and abuses that have occurred…. We will expel the rogue actors and corrupt forces from our government. We will expose and very much expose their egregious crimes and severe misconduct of which was levels you’ve never seen anything like it. It’s going to be legendary…. And what a difference a rigged and crooked election had on our country when you think about it, and the people who did this to us should go to jail. They should go to jail.… And it’s an honor for me to have won this election so that I could appoint these people to do their job and they’re going to do it like you have never seen….”
Did Bondi and Patel hear the same speech that I heard? President Trump said that he would demand full accountability because these really, really bad people, these rogue and corrupt forces broke the law on a colossal scale and need to go to jail for the rigged election and their egregious crimes.
And Bondo Bondi and Patel have both been on Fox News saying the same thing. Bondo was saying, “…for the most part, for the most part, the great men and women of the justice department, the FBI, DEA., ATF, US Marshals, all the agencies that fall under the Justice Department, they’re out there working hard every day for the most part. You know, Jesse, those people — FBI for instance, they didn’t go to raid Mar-a-Lago, and that’s over, too. The weaponization has ended. They want to be out there fighting violent crime…” And Patel was saying 95% of the FBI is honorable. It seems they have both indicated they are defying their President’s directives for “legendary” action to bring full accountability.
Bondi aka Justice for Trayvon, is a publicity ‘hore.
Blondie Bondi acted like she was on a fashion runway the day the President visited the DOJ and made a speech there. She now seems to have a permanent seat on Hannity’s show.
Spot on. She is that chick that gives you the clap, and then denies it.
He won the election, contrary to what those people in the DOJ did to him and his supporters just his being there to address them is a victory lap.
I don’t think PDJT will get the justice he and his supporters deserve. Too may weak republicans with the attention span of a gnat who want to forgive, forget and just move along.
He is appointing woefully unqualified people. Unrefined, cunning opportunists like Bondi or Patel…
Trey Gowdy is an UberRino. And he’s a good friend of Kash Patel??
That’s not good.
Not sure they are friends. Does it even matter? I judge Kash by his actions. And I compare what he does to his book: Government gangsters: the deep state, the truth, and the battle for our democracy
If Patel says 95% of the FBI are honorable — he is compromised, a liar and full of 💩.
There is no dancing around this issue.
He sure is singing a different tune now that he has the job.
Another rooster head bs artist. 🐔
Maybe he can make nightly appearances on Hannity and Gowdy.
It will fill his time.
I’m sorry……but during the first Trump Administration…..Trey Gowdy was one of the voices that kept saying and acting like something was going to be done……and we never got anything from him…instead he goes to FOX News!
And Fox News is no friend of Trump, MAGA or We the People. They are nothing more than the right wing of the rat rhinos…….silencing and terminating anyone who goes over the line to bring us the Truth.
Remember Tucker…..once he showed one J6 video going againt the narrative that even FOX was pushing….his days were numbered.
Rudy Guliano? Judge Napolitano? General McInerney? Just to name a few who tried to tell us something….just to be vanquished from FOX news.
All attempting to share truth behind what the main stream corrupt media was allowed to bring to us, and all ostracized and gone from FOX!
I don’t like FOX, I do not trust Gowdy or anybody with FOX……or any of the corporate, corrupt media.
By doing nothing back then….Gowdy basically condoned it just like every other rat establishment Repub!
He was no different…..and now with FOX proves that! I realize Kash needs to go out and speak through the media….as much of the administration is doing even with places I’d never watch like CNN or the other untrustworthy media!
REMEMBER……THEY ALL LIED TO US ABOUT COVID…AND CONTINUE TO COVER IT UP!
How could one ever listen or trust them again……and that includes the government, it’s agencies and the swamp!
Maybe Trump can change that perception…..but it was this swamp and the lack of any help from it that he himself has had to endure over these years. Do you really think he has forgiven them?
I Don’t!
I’m getting the feeling I put too much hope in Patel. It’s certainly looking that way with Pam Bondi as well.
come here people, I will be waiting….
What’s the status of that museum that was going to be created on day 1?
Tickets being sold yet for tours?
Exactly. All talk, no action. Grassley! Another strongly worded letter, ASAP!
Kash Pastel
Dead on and accurate.
That discussion got a little gushy.
In reading this, I feel
hopeful that Trump intends to close down the FBI. The alternative is depressing.
Kash and Gowdy can go yuck it up for now.
Don’t those FISA warrants work both ways?
Bet f’in Bee EYE still gets its new HQ bldg..
The 95% mark for the “good guys” is grossly exaggerated.
He has already addressed them? Has there been some mass exodus or firings we haven’t heard about?
Bull Schiff!
Two things we all want to know today, without any shielding of the truth is (1) how many FBI/IC assets or willing participants were involved in J6? (2) all these sudo Nazi demonstrations (i.e., the khaki pants, masks, and baseball cap crowd) – Kash…who are these people?
“… how many FBI/IC assets or willing participants were involved in J6?…”
Over 200 is the number of assets. And there were at least 13 protest groups including antifa. Plus about 5,000 agents involved in persecuting President Trump, his associates, and patriots. Will Bondo Bondi and Bondo Patel do anything?

Rep. Clay Higgins Drops a Bomb on Newsmax (and also on Tucker Carlson): “Over 200” FBI Agents Embedded Within Crowd on J6 – FBI Agents Behind Talk of Violence in Chat Groups!
https://revolver.news/2021/12/damning-new-details-massive-web-unindicted-operators-january-6/
The Fedsurrection: If Epps was a government operative, it is game over for the official “MAGA insurrection” narrative of J6. Epps was the day’s loudest riot recruiter, and its apparent leader of the very first breach of Capitol grounds. If Ray Epps is a Fed, the “Insurrection” becomes the “Fedsurrection” in one fell swoop.
The Booby Trap that Turned a Rally into a Riot:
The “Big Bang” moment that kicked off the riot was when a small “breach team” of just a few dozen operatives violently knocked over the first set of metal barricades about 12:50 pm. They forced back the police [really? did the police have orders to give up and not do their jobs], and therefore opened a clean walkway entrance to the crowd behind them. The Ray Epps breach team thus set up a booby trap by pushing back the police, then hauling away the “restricted area” signage, the chain fencing, and the metal barricades—all while tens of thousands were still at the Trump rally. Without police present or “do not enter” signs prominently visible, people leaving Trump’s speech and arriving at the Capitol entrance would have no idea it was illegal to walk through the gate, or onto the lawn, or up to the Capitol steps. After all, this entire area is ordinarily open to the public. What a coincidence that the Ray Epps breach occurs just one minute after Capitol Police began responding to reports of two “pipe bombs.” The Ray Epps Breach Team thus set up what may amount to the largest legal booby-trap in American history.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/whistleblower-fbi-deputy-director-abbate-told-agents-hide/
According to a 2023 whistleblower, FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate told subordinates at the agency to hide the identities of dozens of January 6 government informants. He said it would be too embarrassing for the agency if the information was leaked out. So they hid this from the American public.
Additionally, Chris Wray Lied: Secret Service Admits They Knew 13 ‘Counter-Protest’ Groups Were Organizing to Attend DC Jan. 6 Protests, including antifa.
And Tony Seruga on X.com said: My partners and I have been lifetime data scientists. We own the digital ID of every mobile device/computer in the U.S. and have indexed and archived every IP address in the world…. There are a number of videos documenting these ghost buses as well as a number of mostly nondescript DOJ vans that dropped off ninja wearing individuals that appear in other videos to have breached the Capitol cutting fencing, removing barricades, opening doors, and other nefarious behaviors. We also tracked the infamous J6 ‘pipe bomber’ from one of these vans. Later, we eventually tracked them to a Virginia Metro station where a perfect capture of their vehicle license plate was made. The FBI has ALL of this information. Shortly after they were alerted, however, AT&T mysteriously ‘accidentally’ corrupted that and only that particular cell phone user’s data. Additionally, their mobile device was used hundreds of times before and after J6 accessing keycard required DOJ/FBI parking garages and buildings.

Saved the best part for last, I see.
The ray of hope is the appointment of Dan Bongino.
I agree. It will be interesting to see what happens with him as time goes on. I believe he is true blue and really has a heart to do the right thing and clean things up. So either Patel will give him free reign and let him work or he’ll reign him in and squash his enthusiasm to do what needs to be done. The only thing about Dan is he thinks along the same lines regarding the 95% good agents mantra. And the problem with that is the ones who are not good and were involved in nefarious activities will go silent and toe the line while this admin is in office so they can live for another day. Oh there will be a few who think they can get away with doing underhanded things but most will be very quiet. I don’t think Dan will put up with it if Patel tries to squash his enthusiasm for doing what’s right and then it could get very interesting.
Genuine question…has any member of the DJT administration appeared on ANY conservative/Alternative media? you know the media that MAGA watches now and helped get him elected? RSB, OAN, RAV, Newsmax?? Sincere question. All I have seen is Fox and MSN…Guessing this is by design since conservative media will actually ask real questions….I have to call BS on a lot of this…we are being gaslighted in the highest form….
Make a declaration just like Biden and his handlers did stating the Government cannot be sued
At 1 min 10 seconds KP says the fbi doesn’t make prosecutorial decisions, they investigate…..
Does that mean that the DOJ/Pam directs the fbi where to focus their work?
Fbi can investigate anything but the doj decides what to prosecute.
So the fbi could be investigating things and DOJ be the holdup. But I would think that there are very few worker bees in either fbi or rest of doj willing to take a look at anything occurring prior to Jan 20, 2025.
I’d like to see a bunch of new hires.
Big Jim Comey begs to differ. He made a decision to let Clinton off the hook.
The only person in those photos who knows anything about the FBI is Dan Bongino. The other two do not deserve to be in the photo or even standing next to Dan who should have been the one selected for this job.
I listened to a few minutes as I was flipping through channels. The “mutual admiration society” aspect was vomit-worthy. Patel sounds like a repeat of Wray.
If Kash (and also Radcliffe) haven’t fired a bunch of people yet, then I consider them worthless and either not prepared or, worse, not willing to do what’s needed.
As irritating as it is to hear praise for FBI agents, I’m beginning to think all this praise and mission message for the FBI troops on the ground is not a mistake but a necessary strategy. President Trump needs every trained police type we have available to deport the millions of illegals in the country. I’ve noticed quit a few pictures on the internet where arrests of illegals were not only ICE but FBI and local police shown working together all in one picture. Also didn’t President Trump fire the worst of the worst before Patel was even confirmed. Getting rid of some FBI who we feel deserve it would take away trained personnel from a very important necessary mission of arresting and sending illegals home.
Patience:
Let us not run down the hill and get one of them.
Let us walk down the hill and get them all.
That was sad and more than a little bromance-creepy. There is no way this weak, preening peacock; desperate for attention and affection from his employees, is ever going to revamp the FBI.
Run Dan, run away now!
Has Director Patel identified all the agents who systematically violated citizen’s Constitutionally guaranteed rights by censoring speech and promoting harmful lies yet? What sanctions for this fundamental treason? When’s that happen? Already we be disappointed.
The art of sucking up or just sucking. You decide.
Oy veh
More fake and gay nonsense. The FBI needs to be nuked from orbit. No citizen needs a jackbooted, militarized, unaccountable police force in the citizen-framing business.
Not quite hitting the ground running. I’m experiencing significant buyer’s remorse for Patel and Bondi.
Trey Gowdy has material on the deep state they don’t know he has. When he releases it, it will expose a great deal of malfeasance along with heinous crimes.
That’s alarming, and a repeat of his praise for them when he was sworn it. That was a huge disappointment and incredibly frustrating. I would have thought this and the DOJ were the last places where Trump would install pretenders as heads of these corrupt agencies.
It is not a point in Kash’s favor that Trey Gowdy has such effusive praise for him. Makes me nervous.
KA$H PATEL can write three children’s books about the Steele Dossier, but now as FBI director can’t deliver any criminal referrals for its many conspirators?
Patel raised funds for his KA$H foundation to “help J6 prisoners,” but then appeared before the Senate Committee on the Judiciary on January 30, 2025, where he disagreed with Trump’s decision to pardon January 6 Capitol attack defendants.
What?
Likely our worthy oriental gentleman, Patel was turned into a spy for the British during his law schooling in London. His children’s book series title, PLOT AGAINST THE KING, gives it away with typical MI6 cheek.
It really seems the FBI just got dirtier.
The newly minted FBI Director: I am not responsible. Don’t look at me. I am ‘chust followink orders.’ If you have any problems, talk to Pam.
Bhahahahahahah
🤮
You can say that again! 🫡
Say Less !!
