Embattled FBI duo face renewed scrutiny over botched response to Brown University shooting
Kash Patel’s troubled tenure as Donald Trump’s FBI director may be “at its end,” according to multiple sources, in the wake of the recent mass shooting at Brown University along with a series of other perceived mishaps. Meanwhile, staffers also say that Deputy Director Dan Bongino is already “out the door,” signaling a larger shakeup at the agency.
Patel boasted Sunday on X that the FBI had brought in a “person of interest” in the Brown shooting using “geolocation capabilities” and then added that Providence Police Chief Oscar Perez had praised the FBI for following through on a tip to locate the potential suspect.
A few hours later in a Sunday evening press conference, however, Rhode Island Attorney General Peter Neronha said that person had been released, as there was “no basis” to keep them in custody. Patel had made similar announcements about a “person of interest” during the early stages of the FBI’s investigation into Charlie Kirk’s murder, and was also forced to walk those back.
We all know Patel is just a brown scapegoat. Dude said he can’t wait to see Kirk in Valhalla or whatever the hell that meant. He’s exactly what Trump wants - Made to be incompetent and soften the blow of many FBI shakeups as retribution for what the FBI did during the first Trump administration.
But if we’re going after incompetence - Pete Hegseth invited a reporter into a secret chat about an actual military engagement. He continues to push his Nazi bullshit forward and engage in war crimes.
Speaking of, the FBI and CIA have to be extremely incompetent anyway given the amount of shit tonnage trump has dropped on them with absolutely no pushback or anything.
If they’ve got anything, they’re not using it. So either they don’t have anything, they’re complicit in massive corruption, or they’re utterly powerless to carry out their mission.
Embarrassing.
