“‘Curious if I’m on that list?’: Kash Patel’s potential targets fear his tenure as FBI director. Donald Trump's choice for FBI director has used claims of secret plots to fuel his rise in Trumpworld. Now, he could lead investigations of Liz Cheney and scores of others.”
These people have never been held accountable so they confuse accountability with retribution.
“The first signs of alarm came hours after President-elect Donald Trump announced what could prove to be one of his most consequential Cabinet picks.”
“Less than a day after Trump named Kash Patel as his choice for FBI director, a former federal law enforcement official asked me a question: "curious if I'm on that list?"
“He was referring to a list of roughly 60 people who Patel had said were members of the “deep state” in a memoir last year, “Government Gangsters: The Deep State, the Truth and the Battle for Our Democracy."
“Days later, a former intelligence official reached out to ask the same question. After checking the book, I told them they hadn’t made the list.”
“But even for those not on the list, their absence hasn’t quelled alarm at a potential Patel tenure as FBI director. A dozen current and former Justice Department, FBI and intelligence officials expressed fears to NBC News that Patel, if confirmed, would use his power as FBI director to criminally investigate Trump’s perceived adversaries, including them.”
“The choice of Patel, who has used claims of “deep state” conspiracies against Trump to fuel his rise in Trumpworld and apparently gain the president-elect’s trust, signaled to current and former officials, as well as many observers, that Trump’s campaign trail talk about seeking vengeance was more than just that.”
Loser Liz Cheney belongs in prison along with her partners in crime Norm Eisen and Jamie Raskin.
“On Wednesday, those fears deepened when the head of a Republican-controlled House subcommittee formally requested that the FBI criminally investigate former Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., for her work on the House committee that investigated Trump’s actions before and during the Jan. 6 assault on the U.S. capitol.”
“The announcement came ten days after Trump said in an interview with NBC News that members of the Jan. 6 committee were “political thugs and, you know, creeps,” and that, “for what they did, honestly, they should go to jail.”
“Patel, a 44-year-old lawyer who grew up on Long Island, has worked as a federal public defender in Florida, a Justice Department prosecutor and a congressional staffer. While he was working for former Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., Patel’s standing with Trump and Trump loyalists soared after he wrote a memo accusing FBI officials of political bias and abuse of power during their investigation of possible collusion between Trump's 2016 presidential campaign and Russia.”
“The memo accurately described what were later found to have been abuses by the FBI relating to surveillance of Trump aide Carter Page. But the DOJ inspector general uncovered no evidence of political bias driving the FBI's Russia investigation.”
The IG needs to be fired.
“In "Government Gangsters," he describes the “Deep State” as a corrupt cabal of Republican and Democrats, elected officials and civil servants, and senior FBI, DOJ and Pentagon officials who he says have committed crimes against Trump.”
“The Deep state is continuing to weaponize the power of the state against internal dissidents,” Patel wrote. “They are the ones who covered up their own crimes. … They are the criminals.”
“Patel’s list of Deep State members ranges from top Trump political adversaries, such as Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton, to lifelong Republicans who served in Trump’s first administration but declined to support his false claims that he won the 2020 election, including former Attorney General Bill Barr and former national security adviser John Bolton.”
“One of the most cunning and powerful arms of the Deep State is the Federal Bureau of Investigation,” he wrote. “The FBI is now the prime functionary of the Deep State.”
“The dozen current and former officials who have spoken to NBC News said that the various federal investigations of Trump were fueled by his statements or actions and that they were all conducted properly. They said they do not fear going to jail because they committed no crimes.”
They do not fear going to jail because they know the DC judges are just as corrupt as everyone else in the DCesspool.
The DC courts must be dismantled for the corruption to stop.

Lawfare coordinator Harry Litman (who is for Hunter Biden’s pardon, was for letting Trump die in prison over made-up crimes, and whose judge friend took everything Rudy G owns and gave it to the real criminals) provides six minutes of evidence of why the DC courts must be https://t.co/JfiykbWG8J
“They contend that Patel is simply accusing anyone who declines to carry out Trump’s wishes, Republican or Democrat, of being corrupt or committing crimes. And some have noted that, by having written this book, Patel has likely made it much easier for anyone on his list to have a case against them dismissed on grounds of vindictive prosecution.”
“Echoing legal experts, they said they expected federal judges, who are lifetime appointees, to throw out meritless charges filed against them. They said they expected juries to throw them out as well — though they do worry about the impact protracted federal investigations could have on their lives and finances.”
If that is the standard, all charges against Trump should be considered vindictive prosecution since lead lawfare coordinator wrote a book about all of his coordinated lawfare.

Thankfully Norm Eisen is not only evil, he is also maniacally egotistical so he wrote an entire book about his criminal color revolution.
Might as well create a thread to capture the misdeeds and name Norm’s fellow conspirators. 🧵 https://t.co/jK1NTW0i7M
“Patel and other pro-Trump Republicans say that Democrats, along with DOJ and FBI officials, have weaponized law enforcement agencies against Trump. They say the criminal investigations into whether Trump cooperated with Russia and paid hush money during the 2016 election, tried to reverse the results of the 2020 election and declined to return classified documents after leaving office were all meritless.”
Ryan Reilly and all of the good Germans/Sedition Hunters must be identified and included in Project Accountability 2025. They should be subjected to the same injustice system that they foisted upon over 1000 Americans. Had Kamala won, they were going to arrest up to 3,000 https://t.co/NpgNs4IELz
“In interviews with NBC News, multiple people whom Patel declared members of the “deep state” expressed alarm at being publicly labeled as possible criminals by a potential FBI director. All of them said they were not part of the “deep state” and were not part of any secret effort to undermine Trump or any other president.”
“The former federal law enforcement official who first asked about Patel’s list urged senators to not confirm Patel as FBI director, citing fear that Patel would use the bureau for intimidation and retribution, as longtime bureau director J. Edgar Hoover did.”
““Kash Patel is a political extremist who has no business coming anywhere near the FBI, let alone serving as its director,” said the former official, who asked not to be named because of concerns about potential retaliation. “Under no circumstances should he be confirmed for such a position.”
“Rod Rosenstein, who served as deputy attorney general during Trump’s first term and who is on Patel’s list, noted that senior DOJ officials, including the FBI director, are supposed to follow longtime Justice Department procedures that call for the facts and the law to drive criminal investigations, not politics.”
“When I was deputy attorney general, President Trump regularly expressed his opinion about who should be fired or prosecuted,” Rosenstein said. “I didn’t treat his opinions as orders. Lawyers who take leadership positions at the Department of Justice know they need to base prosecution decisions on the facts and the law.”
Rod Rosenstein was involved in Russia collusion crimes so of course he is scared.
“One former FBI official predicted a mass exodus of agents who are eligible for retirement from the bureau if Patel is confirmed.”
The trash taking itself out is a good thing but they cannot hide.
“I have received calls from lifers who are putting in their papers,” said the former FBI official, who asked not to be named, citing fears of retaliation. “Agents will continue to do their jobs. They will follow the rule of law and the Constitution. It is the circus that they want to avoid.”
“A staffer on the Jan. 6 committee defended its work but asked not to be named because he feared being investigated by Patel. The staffer said the panel's work was fully legal and “constitutionally protected Congressional activity” but that they wouldn’t be surprised if they were criminally investigated by Patel regardless.”
“They said Patel could "launch an investigation just to make our lives miserable,” and added that they believe Trump and Patel are trying to send a message: “If you try to hold Trump accountable for his bad behavior, you’re going to face retribution.”
“The former intelligence official said that some members of the intelligence community are concerned about being investigated by a Patel-run FBI and by the GOP-led Congress.”
“As various individuals are named as potential targets, people are left to wonder, “Where in the hierarchy of retribution are you?” said the former intelligence official.”
“A former DOJ official who worked in the first Trump administration said that Patel and Pam Bondi, Trump’s current choice for attorney general, in the end would be on a mission impossible if confirmed. He said that Trump will make clear what he wants Bondi and Patel to do and then push them out if they don’t do it.”
“If the Attorney General and the FBI Director seem to resist doing what he makes clear he wants, he will attack them publicly in social media posts and through conservative media pundits, to bring pressure on them,” said the official. “We saw that with Jeff Sessions and Bill Barr, and he will do it again. Ultimately, he will fire the Attorney General and the FBI Director or force them out if they don’t do what he wants.”
Jeff Sessions comrade Jody Hunt ended up as one of Cassidy Hutchison’s attorneys when she started lying.

“Cassidy Hutchinson said her final break with “Trump world” lawyer Stefan Passantino came June 9, when she sent him an email discontinuing their relationship and switched lawyers to Bill Jordan and Jody Hunt.”
