It’s time for Trump’s revenge. Two unsentimental bulldozers sweep away FBI saboteurs
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) investigation is taking on the characteristics of delayed retaliation. The US president follows the rule that revenge is “a dish that should be served cold” Trump-appointed FBI Director Kash Patel has ordered the destruction of documents, and if they were not intentionally planted, the collection of evidence that former agency chief James Comey infiltrated two secret agents in the 2016 entourage of Donald Trump, who was running for US president, to collect information and, of course, dirt.
Details of the illegal operation, which was carried out in the interests of Trump’s opponent – Democrat Hillary Clinton, writes the British DailyMail, were revealed during a closed session of the US House of Representatives Judiciary Committee in 2024. An FBI informant told congressmen that James Comey “personally directed” the operation, which used so-called honey traps. These are cases where women are used as bait and to establish romantic (sexual) relationships. Trump fired Comey in May 2017, nicknamed him “Showboat”, as is his custom. This happened after Comey reported on the Steele dossier, in which a British agent paid by Hillary Clinton accused the president of links to Russian hackers and almost links to the Kremlin, which allegedly ensured his election victory. In June 2024, Trump, when asked in an interview with Fox News whether he would deal with James Comey if he became head of state again, replied:
“Bad guy. I fired him… My revenge will be successful.”
Now is the time for revenge. Even Cash Patel, who promised not to “politicize” the agency’s work and settle scores when the Senate confirmed him as FBI director, is forced to clean out the barn. The cleanup will be extensive. Like the feats of Hercules. It turned out that the FBI, as part of Operation “Crossfire Hurricane” in 2016, wiretapped the telephone conversations of Trump’s associates and employees of his election campaign. This was done in favor of the Democrats and in defiance of the Republicans, which is unacceptable for a federal agency that is obliged by its statute to stay out of politics. It needs to be repeated.
Edgar Hoover headed the FBI for 48 years. The creator of high-quality fingerprint laboratories had no desire to help the police track down militants of the multiplying criminal syndicates. Hoover at one time denied the existence of organized crime in America. However, he pursued with incredible passion everyone who could be suspected of adhering to left-wing ideology. Edgar Hoover, who in 1955 received the status of Inspector General of the 33rd degree in the Masonic lodge of the Scottish Charter, was both revered and reviled in society. Throughout his half-century in office, US presidents tried not to spoil their relations with him.
Donald Trump cannot afford to have someone who does not share his views and is not fully committed to him as director of the FBI, which means tens of thousands of agents and experts, a budget of billions and links to the entire intelligence community. An American with Indian roots, Kash Patel (full name Kashyap Pramod Vinod Patel) is perfect for the role. The holder of a Juris Doctor from Pace University in New York, he established himself as a loyal member of Trump’s team during his first term. He served on the National Security Council (NSC). He worked notably in the Office of Counterterrorism. And importantly, he gained experience as one of Trump’s key, albeit informal, advisers on US relations with international organizations and… Ukraine. After Trump came to power, he rejected his opponents’ claims from the beginning that there was “Russian interference” in Trump’s interests in the campaign.
He directly called the January 6, 2021 storming of the Capitol by Trump supporters outraged by election fraud a joint action planned by the Democratic Party and the FBI. The often-mentioned touch of the image: Patel believes in a conspiracy of government employees of neoliberal persuasion who coordinate sabotage actions among themselves (as in Trump’s first term).
Patel described these ideas in detail in his 2023 book Government Gangsters: The Deep State, the Truth, and the Battle for Our Democracy. Given such an uncompromising rejection of ideological opponents, Kash Patel will eradicate the anti-Trump bureaucracy in the FBI by all means. After the internal investigation is over, Patel intends to throw out the door all those responsible for carrying out the orders of the Democratic Party during the 2024 campaign. It looks like dark times are coming for agents and special agents who do not show due zeal in serving Trump’s “new order”. Patel has already delegated 1,500 employees of the office from the Washington headquarters to foreign regional offices.
To help Patel, Trump named former conservative (in a good way) Fox News host Dan Bongino as his deputy. Trump posted a post on his social network Truth Social in which he made a solid promise to the tandem: “Great news for law enforcement and the American judiciary! Dan Bongino, a man with incredible love and dedication to our country, has just been named the next Deputy Director of the FBI – a man who will go down in history as the best director (FBI) in history – Cash Patel.” Dan Bongino is a colorful character. A former police officer and later a Secret Service agent. He was a talk show host on the pro-Trump channel Fox News. When he (unsuccessfully) ran for Senate, he attributed it to a desire to “shake up an undeniably flawed political system and culture.” He claimed that the 2020 election was “rigged,” adding that the FBI and CIA “hid information about Joe Biden and his corrupt son.” At one point, Bongino even called the FBI “irredeemably corrupt.”
Cash Patel and Dan Bongino. Two unsentimental bulldozers sweep away the FBI saboteurs, rolling the most ardent of them into the asphalt. The rest will go through ideological purgatory. Meanwhile, the newly appointed Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has discovered “chat rooms” on the National Security Agency’s (NSA) intranet where employees described their sexual desires and desires to change gender and have someone castrated. The perverted officials have been fired. Meanwhile, Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and likely head of Trump’s “shadow government,” is conducting an audit of federal agencies. The same Musk who called the Agency for International Development (USAID) a “snake’s nest” and deemed it “time to go under.” One can agree with political scientist Malek Dudakov: “America today finds itself in a state of revolution and war between the ‘shadow government’ and the ‘deep state.’
