FBI Director Kash Patel showed real backbone today when he faced down Senator Cory Booker in a heated Senate hearing. The New Jersey Democrat tried his usual tricks to attack our law enforcement. But Patel was ready for him.
Booker came loaded with false talking points about the FBI and police work in America. He tried to paint our agents as the bad guys who divide our country. The liberal senator clearly wanted to score cheap political points for the cameras.
But Director Patel was not having it. He called out Booker right to his face for spreading lies about the Bureau. Patel told the truth about how hard our agents work to keep Americans safe every single day.
This is exactly why President Trump picked Patel to clean up the FBI. For too long, Democrats have attacked our police and federal agents. They want to defund law enforcement and blame cops for everything wrong in America.
Patel is bringing real change to the FBI after years of deep state corruption. He is getting rid of the bad actors who targeted conservatives and patriotic Americans. The Bureau is finally working for the people again.
Democrats like Booker hate this because they cannot control Patel like they did before. They are scared that Americans will see the truth about their anti-police agenda. So they attack and spread lies instead of supporting our brave agents.
Our law enforcement officers deserve leaders who have their backs. Patel proved today that he will stand up to any politician who tries to tear down our police. He will not let Democrats destroy the men and women who risk their lives for us.
This is what real leadership looks like in Washington. Director Patel is fighting for law and order while Democrats play politics with our safety. Every patriotic American should be proud to have him leading the FBI.
