FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino sat down for a lengthy interview with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo.
Director Patel begins the interview noting how he and Deputy Bongino have spent the majority of the week attending ceremonies for law enforcement and visiting families and colleagues of fallen FBI heroes. Director Patel then begins to discuss reforming the FBI and his plan to correct all of the political corruption that has permeated his organization.
Patel notes the previous FBI Director and Deputy Director intentionally lied to the American people about their roles in the weaponization of the agency. Bartiromo plays her role in saying the duo are not going to do anything. Patel counters with his intention to keep delivering the documentary evidence that highlights how FBI leadership played a key role in the weaponization of government. Patel says, “you’re about to see a wave of transparency, just give us about a week or two.”
Deputy Dan Bongino says, “do you want it done right, or do you want it done correctly.” Additionally noting, “everything is a priority.” When referencing the possibility of an interconnected conspiracy within the prior threats and attempted assassination of President Trump, Bongino notes “there is no there, there.” It is a long and wide-ranging discussion.

We all want Kash Patel and Dan Bongino to succeed. Things do take time, but the unwillingness of Patel and Bongino to call out the corrupt lower-level FBI activity that takes in DC and in various field offices is not confidence inspiring.
Bongino and Patel are passionate speakers about their jobs and objectives.
Director Kash Patel notes repeatedly throughout the interview that his team (the FBI Silo) is now sending documents to congress, presumably the Judiciary Committee (silo), the SSCI (silo) and the HPSCI (silo), as each of the silos continues their investigative work around government weaponization.
My simple question is, “why”?
Why send exclusive silo documents to other exclusive silos for further review? …. Because that’s the rules? …. Because that’s the process established by the same DC silo administrators who consider themselves as acceptable filters through which the material must be controlled, put into silo-affirming context, and released in a process that protects the interests of the DC silo creators? Is that the why?
Where in this equation are ‘we the people‘?
Does the executive need to engage the legislative just because the system is designed to enmesh all their collective interests?
Why not release the information publicly, with a notation, “this was sent to the (fill_in_blank)?”
Oh, wait, “ongoing investigations,” gotcha.
“Do you want it done right, or do you want it done correctly?” Where “correctly” are the DC rules.
You decide.
