It has often been said that a person cannot serve two masters. Throughout years of reviewing the activity of the FBI, one larger picture is clear; the primary mission of the FBI is to protect the interests of Washington, DC – not to protect the interests of truth.
There are two recent sub-contexts for an internal conflict taking place between the Director of the FBI, Kash Patel, and the Director of the Office of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard.
♦ The first issue surfaces from the ODNI’s office investigating the potential for foreign intelligence to have participated in the background of the Charlie Kirk assassination. The director of the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC), Joe Kent, has been reviewing the potential for Charlie Kirk’s assassin to have received influence or support from foreign interests, specifically foreign intelligence.
FBI Director Kash Patel is not happy that NCTC Director Joe Kent reviewed the investigative case file of Tyler Robinson as part of the NCTC review. Presumably, Patel is worried that any investigation of potential support for the assassination may create reasonable doubt for a jury in the case against Robinson. {STORY HERE}
On one-hand the issue is somewhat territorial, with the FBI guarding their investigation in order to ensure a successful prosecution. However, on the other hand, if the investigation is to find the truth of the issues behind the murder, then why would the FBI be concerned about the NCTC checking to see if associations in/around Tyler Robinson may have contributed to the assassination? The truth should have no agenda.
♦ The second issue is even more concerning. Congress is currently debating the final version of an intelligence policy bill, known as the 2026 Intelligence Authorization Act, and possible amendments to the structure of the counterintelligence systems and processes as carried out. [Legislative Link Here] At issue is whether to put intelligence and counterintelligence operations under the purview of the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard. {STORY HERE}
Currently, the counterintelligence operations of the U.S. Intelligence Community are carried out by the sub-silo within the FBI, the FBI counterintelligence division. However, as documented in the weaponized use of the FBI counterintelligence organization against President Donald Trump, there is a push to change the system to create oversight, insurance the FBI cannot politically weaponize this agency again.
DNI Tulsi Gabbard has said her goal is to chase down the exact origin of the FBI’s weaponized authority in the Crossfire Hurricane targeting operation and take measures to ensure such gross abuses of power do not happen again. Many in Congress have been alarmed at how the FBI used the counterintelligence agency as an isolation silo to stop oversight, even their own leadership, from knowing what they were doing as they weaponized their authority. Gabbard is seeking structural changes to make sure it can never happen again. Kash Patel is against this change.
♦ Readers and online researchers who have used the CTH research library on these issues will note our continued position, proven by decades of evidence, that shows the FBI as a structural agency is compromised from top to bottom with “institutional corruption,” as confirmed by Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley.
Decades of examples of FBI political motivation, including the recently discussed “Arctic Frost” operation, simply prove the FBI is a political agency akin to the Soviet era FSB. The FBI targets any individual, group or entity, who would represent a threat to Washington, DC. This is their primary mission and the reason why so many domestic terror threats were unnoticed.
The FBI is primarily focused on threats to the U.S. system of government, not to threats against the citizens of the nation. At this point in our history, with hundreds of specific examples for citation, this outlook, opinion or view is no longer arguable.
Despite FBI Director Kash Patel continuing to deny the ‘institutional corruption’ of his agency, the corruption exists.
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem was also accurate in saying from her experience with the FBI tipping off drug cartels, money launderers and human trafficking operations targeted by CBP/ICE officials, the FBI is corrupt.
We are approaching an inflection point.
President Trump is demanding the institutions of Law and Order must be purged of corrupt actors and the institutions themselves must be cleaned up. DNI Tulsi Gabbard is working through the process of identifying how the various govt silos were weaponized, who weaponized them, what role the intelligence community played in the targeting, and she is taking direct action to change the systems in place in order to take away their capability of doing harm.
FBI Director Kash Patel stands with one foot in agreement with the goals of DNI Gabbard, but also with one foot to maintain institutional power of the FBI while underneath him remains an entire operational system against the goals of Gabbard. Again, in short, Director Kash Patel is trying to serve two masters.
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is not beholden to the retention of any silo agency, even her own office. So far, she has been a steward on a mission for the truth regardless of how ugly that truth might appear. This puts a big DC target on the back of Mrs. Gabbard, as the entire DC system is dependent on retention of a very corrupt intelligence information control and operational targeting system.
In examples we have already documented, the CIA (Directorate of Analysis), the DoD (Defense Intelligence Agency), and the Lawfare operatives within the DOJ have all targeted Tulsi Gabbard using DC schemes and manipulative leaks to media in an effort to undermine her and get her removed – they failed. However, now the FBI is participating in the same risk avoidance measures.
DNI Gabbard represents a threat to the operational mission of an institutionally corrupt Federal Bureau of Investigation.
It must be considered that there is nothing more difficult to carry out nor more doubtful of success nor more dangerous to handle than to initiate a new order of things; for the reformer has enemies in all those who profit by the old order, and only lukewarm defenders in all those who would profit by the new order; this lukewarmness arising partly from the incredulity of mankind who does not truly believe in anything new until they actually have experience of it.

Great work SD. Thank you for your dedication to the people of our country!
I would like to see SD receive a Presidential Citizens Medal for the years of effort in reducing governmental and political complexities, often nuanced, into language that all of us can understand. It’s like we really didn’t understand our government before SD. We understood political science and the mechanics of U.S. government from the courses we took in high school and college but we never REALLY understood our government until we visited this last refuge. That is real talk.
Actually all historical governments have always wanted to extend their power and personal finance. When the Vandals took Africa Province from Rome, the taxes (grain) was cut off. The ‘crats had been growing in number for hundreds of years. With no tax base they abandoned their desks and fled. The population fell from 250,000 to less than 25,000 and stayed there for 1000 years.
The corruption runs so deep, it is hard to find a bottom.
Power and money
Money and power
They always go together in one way or another.
Yes, however can someone provide some details to this… “In examples we have already documented, the CIA (Directorate of Analysis), the DoD (Defense Intelligence Agency), and the Lawfare operatives within the DOJ have all targeted Tulsi Gabbard using DC schemes and manipulative leaks to media in an effort to undermine her and get her removed – they failed. However, now the FBI is participating in the same risk avoidance measures.”
Please provide what “risk aoidance measures the FBI is using and how those measures have “have all targeted Tulsi Gabbard using DC schemes and manipulative leaks to media in an effort to undermine her and get her removed” ? The one is defensive preserving internal review only, the other is offensive to remove T.G.
Someone said the only difference between the FBI and the KGB is that the KGB never pretended to be a law enforcement agency.
Think about it. Think about Hoover. Think about Ruby Ridge. Think about Waco. Think about OKC.
Name one big success by the FBI in its long history.
Whoever somebody is, they nailed it!
Anyone know the exact date the CIA and the FBI merged?
Remember, Peter Strzok was most likely CIA pretending to be FBI, or cross-org’ed.
My best guess would be not long, or shortly after the assassination of JFK.
The case of Utah v Robinson has truly evolved.
Now, it’s The Case of the Invisible Defendant and The Case of the Postponed Court Proceedings.
This entire ordeal reflects rather poorly on President Trump on account of Krash being such a sketchy character and gross disappointment.
The best thing President Trump could do is send Krash back to the casino and his Prager U babe and put someone experienced and credible in charge.

Unbelievable. Nothing happens until Jan.? Two months from now? This country has lost its way – there is no common sense left. This is a joke right? And who is that silly woman dressed like a teenager and what is she doing at a courthouse?
What silly woman at the courthouse?

Agree. And what about foreign involvement ? I think there may be something there. Will we ever find out?
Seems like many are compromised.
George Webb has been covering the foreign involvement angle.
He is on you tube and he has a substack.

Where’s the real shooter, the likely agent who was behind Charlie? Watch rhe real videos, not what the IC and media is feeding. Tyler is just another Oswald; guilty, but not the control or real assassin.
One would be very wise to not trust Grassley’s decision making. He’s one of the worst of worst.
He’d like to have people believe that their freedom rights an liberties come the government. And that they’re in charge of what the law is going to be.
He fought for, and tried to; force feed GMO’s hidden in their food, on the entire population. And succeeded in doing so for many years.
Advocated for the persecution and prosecution of the people that attended the January 6th rally.
He’s been blocking Trumps nominations. A sinister figure in our government to say the least.
Chuck Grassley Grilled on FBI Surveillance of Mike Lindell and Americans in Operation Arctic Frost

How passionate he was in his support of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP).
Looks like Patel was finally forced to take action…

One down, and how many to go?! Why is the FBI not the source of these stories? In that question lies one of the many problems with the agency.
Tulsi figured out that the key to the whole thing is cross-silo oversight. A taskforce of clean- beyond reproach- cops from various state and local police from all 50 states- should be sent into the FBI with complete and total authority to rummage through the entire agency and find what they find. The FBI has no “rights”. There’s no protection from audits / oversight.
It almost sounds as if Kash Patel could use a bit of a vacation… or, perhaps, simply retirement? 😏
FBI Leadership? Seems like a oxymoron. The coup d’etat is in the open and there are criminals everywhere. Where’s the beef???
Who really is Kash Patel – where did he come from – and what was he doing before the FBI?
He was a congressional staffer for D. Nunes. He did a book and film called Government Gangsters. Never watched it because the trailer showed some of the ‘good guys’ he chose to be in his film were people I would consider to be gov’t deep state gangsters themselves! That never set right with me. I look back now and note he testified on PT’s behalf in the CO trial which now appears to me to have been a move to show his ‘allegiance’ to PT. Where is that strong allegiance now? He has spent the last few yrs chumming up to MAGA so we would push hard for his confirmation. “Who really is Kash Patel”? That is a very good question.
I first learned of Kash Patel in the 2020 movie “The Plot Against the President”. When he was appointed to the FBI, I was thrilled, believing him to be above board, and the man to clean house. When Dan Bongino was appointed as Deputy, my credulity hackles were raised, and I’m sorry to have to admit that I was wrong about Kash, and not wrong about Dan. Their behavior, and often lack thereof , has been a complete vindication of those who yelled “NO!” at the appointments.
Thousands of its employees should have been given their walking papers, and many of them prosecuted.
As Kristi Noem stated, the “FBI is corrupt”. It is a silo that is rotten to its very core and cannot be cleaned enough to ever be trusted to carry out its stated task.
I believe that Kash and Dan took similar oaths to the one I took when I joined the Navy 53 years ago; ‘defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic’. It is my opinion that the duo in general, and Kash specifically have failed to live up to their oaths and should be removed.
Thank you. It seemed like one minute I never heard of Kash – the next I hear he is getting this hi-profile job. Was he already working for the government or did somebody dig him up from some underground silo or something? I had never heard of him until Trump came along.
Kash was a government lawyer who worked with Devin Nunes authoring the 2018 Nunes Memo. I only found out about him when saw him in “The Plot Against the President”, a movie still well worth watching. Hyperlinks don’t show when posted, but the title is a link to where you can rent or buy the movie.
The FBI needs to be broken up. Forensics, international investigations, domestic terrorism.
“The FBI needs to be broken up” FULL STOP.
