The disappearance of America’s leadership class at a time like this means that the rest of us have to be leaders. We can no longer wait to be led by those with the power and authority to lead. You must lead, I must lead, all of us must lead. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.

Crockett: When you I say you are the least qualified in the history of the FBI, it’s real…

Patel: That’s false
