    Lewandowski was never an appointee, just a Special Government Employee and Kristy Noem's boyfriend

    Still, notably corrupt

    This is totally separate from his contracting shenanigans

    Kash Patel is a pitiful clown

    FBI Director Kash Patel seems to be very bad at his job.

    This was confirmed yet again on Thursday, when national security journalist Seth Hettenafound do ents showing Patel instructing his team to search for and respond to online accounts that criticize him. In one instance, Ben Williamson, the FBI’s assistant director for public affairs, tells Patel via text message that the FBI should not respond to a post making fun of the director from what looks like a troll account on X with a handle referencing the r-word slur.

    Patel texted a link of the post to Williamson in February, to which Williamson replies, “this is an ‘Epstein didn’t kill himself’ bot account if you’re wondering where that’s coming from.”

    But Patel seems to fixate on the reaction to the post: “277k responses are not bots what i asked you and your team to do is find them, and post our record year results back at them all, continuously.”

    The records appear in the FBI Vault, a large set of do entation that the FBI proactively released for public interest in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act. The do ents that Hettena highlights are from a collection led “Records regarding the review of the Investigative Holdings related to Jeffrey Epstein Part 11.”

    Williamson dismissed his director’s concern over the February troll post—as of Friday morning, it only has 492 comments, about 1,000 reposts and quotes, and 16,000 likes—with Patel appearing to confuse the number of views with the number of responses. He warned Patel that responding to the post would “look bad on you”—a valid point.

    Patel is lowering hiring standards at the FBI in oddly specific ways

    e.g., bestiality is no longer a dealbreaker

    https://www.mediaite.com/media/news/...disqualifiers/
    Unless the FBI is actively recruiting victims of bestiality who have been trafficked, this sounds an awful lot like a carve out for one specific person

    and/or a ridiculous lie


    What we did was, we did not want to punish victims of bestiality, victims who were trafficked

    Applicants who have engaged in bestiality means they were victims of bestiality because they were forced to do so. At this FBI we are not going to criminalize and prevent victims from serving

    were prospective agents forced to engage with donkeys in Tijuana?

    wouldn't the donkeys be the victims in that case?

    on a more serious note, why does Kash Patel want to hire more embezzlers, johns and sheep-shaggers at the FBI?

    I'm old enough to remember when the Christian right fear-mongered that marriage equality would lead to bestiality and now it qualifies you to be an FBI agent.

    in common parlance, this is called a lie



    The cost of a new home is in some cases 20%, 30% lower than it was under Biden ... President Trump was crushed inflation.

    RFK is selling access to US officials and self-dealing

    Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. accepted $4 million in book advances and more than $270,000 in gifts over the past year from close allies who are working to advance his Make America Healthy Again agenda, according to his latest financial disclosure form.


    Ethics experts said the financial relationships may violate federal rules barring officials from profiting from their government position, and call into question the secretary’s ability to remain independent and impartial.
    The advances were for two books that will be published by a company owned by Tony Lyons, a longtime friend and business associate of Mr. Kennedy who also sits atop a constellation of MAHA-related en ies, including some that accept political contributions and corporate sponsorships from health-related companies.

    Andrew Bailey, the FBI’s co-deputy director, has left his job after just one year. He used to be the Attorney General of Missouri and was in charge of election issues. He is now leaving his post one month before the mid-term elections

    Nutlick feathers his nest

    Commerce secretary Howard Lutnick has an annual salary of $205,000. And he reported "outside income" of $250mn last year, largely based on investments with strong connections to US Government action.

    Trump fixer Bill Pulte said he wanted to crack down on mortgage fraud, now he's firing the investigators who do just that

    On Wednesday, he announced deep cuts to the office of the Inspector General at the FHFA. That office is reportedly investigating Pulte’s own alleged misconduct. But it also includes dozens of special agents who work to “detect, investigate, and refer for prosecution mortgage fraud and other crimes” involving Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, FHFA Acting Principal Deputy Inspector General James Hodge told congressional oversight committee members in a letter Wednesday.

    Pulte’s cuts “will eliminate our capacity to effectively conduct criminal investigation of mortgage, bank, and other fraud schemes involving the en ies FHFA regulates,” Hodge wrote. He said he would have to lay off about 40 investigators who have helped the office secure more than 1,200 criminal convictions and recover nearly $75 billion since.

    Pulte reportedly targeted one Republican, Attorney General Todd Blanche. But according to the Wall Street Journal, Pulte looked into Blanche’s mortgages after the former Trump lawyer, at the time the deputy attorney general, criticized Pulte’s efforts targeting Democrats.

    Pulte’s efforts to use his office to advance partisan vendettas have never been subtle. The Government Accountability Office has said it is investigating whether Pulte misused his position to access mortgage information on Trump foes.
