The Right Choice

Donald Trump’s nomination of Kash Patel to lead the FBI has caused a firestorm of protest in the left-wing media and the DC Swamp. Patel is not a household name. Here’s what you need to know: He is being attacked for all the right reasons, and all the right people are terrified.

Former Deputy FBI Director and James Comey crony Andrew McCabe said Patel’s nomination was a “terrible development” that signals Trump’s intention to “disrupt” and “dismantle” the agency. What it really signals is Trump’s desire to reform the FBI.

Kash Patel is being attacked for the work he did to expose the “black ops” run by the FBI against Donald Trump alleging Russia collusion. That was the central issue that so paralyzed Trump’s first term.

It was a totally contrived lie, and it was not just the work of a rogue agent or two. It was corruption that went all the way to the top, including James Comey and Andrew McCabe.

Working with Devin Nunes, the former chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Kash Patel discovered and exposed the “black ops” that the FBI and the CIA ran against Trump and the American people during the 2016 election. And they did it again in the 2020 election.

Here’s one of the things that has the Deep State terrified.

For the past four years, the Congress of the United States has not been able to get a straight answer from FBI Director Christopher Wray about how many agents were on Capitol Hill on January 6th and what their roles were. We want their names, and we want to know if they encouraged people to go into the Capitol Building or even led people into the building.

Wray has repeatedly refused to answer any questions about the FBI’s involvement in the events of January 6th, claiming it would compromise intelligence operations. That is an absurd answer.

Here’s another thing that has the Deep State terrified.

What was the chain of command at the FBI during the raid on the home of a former president of the United States? Federal agents stayed in Donald Trump’s home for hours. They went through his wife’s underwear. They staged and then leaked fake photos to embarrass Trump. And who authorized the use of deadly force?

That was not a minor event in our history. It was a major abuse of our legal system. There must be accountability.

That’s why the left is so afraid of Kash Patel. It’s all the things he uncovered while working for Devin Nunes, and it’s all the things he will uncover that occurred over the past eight years.

And it’s not just what they did to Donald Trump, pro-life activists, parents at school board meetings, and conservative churches. It’s also what they did to shield and protect the Biden and Obama administrations.
