Ka$h—director of the FBI—keeps his bank account is wide open for business and the whole world knows it.

Pam Bondi changed DOJ policy rather than investigate KP’s corruption.

The wolves are inside & feasting on carcasses at this point. A mess.
Patel also started Trishul L.L.C., a national-security and intelligence consulting firm named after a Hindu term representing the three states of consciousness: waking, dreaming, and sleeping. Trishul had contracts with the Trump Media group, which paid Patel's company more than a quarter-million dollars in 2022 and 2023, according to S.E.C. filings; Patel oversaw an investigation into two of Trump Media's founders, who were accused of mismanaging the company's launch. In January, Trump Media granted Patel, who served on the company's board, and who was then the nominee for F.B.I. director, stock shares valued at nearly eight hundred thousand dollars. On the day of his Senate hearing, Patel said that he had decided not to accept the award, "to avoid any appearance of any conflict." Patel also consulted for Elite Depot Ltd., the parent company of Shein, a Chinese fast-fashion retailer. He held investments of between a million and five million dollars in Elite, whose board included investors with alleged ties to China's military and the Communist Party. Democrats and Republicans in Congress have raised questions about Shein's use of forced labor in China, an allegation that the company has strenuously denied. Patel told the Justice Department's ethics office that he saw no need to divest his holdings in Elite and that, if Trump gave him a waiver, he could handle matters related to its businesses. Another Trishul client was the government of Qatar, which paid Patel an undisclosed amount for consulting services. The news site Responsible Statecraft reported that Patel's work for Qatar included helping with security ahead of the 2022 World Cup and offering advice on counterterrorism and election monitoring. Patel pledged to recuse himself from matters concerning Trishul that might arise at the F.B.I., but he refused to sell off assets related to his firm, which paid him more than two million dollars in 2024. In March, he got a waiver allowing him to handle Qatar-related matters. Earlier this year, the public-interest lobby Public Citizen filed a complaint alleging that Patel, by failing to disclose his work for Qatar or to register as a foreign agent, had violated federal rules requiring officials to report income from overseas entities. The day after the complaint was filed, Attorney General Bondi limited enforcement of the rules governing such income, saying that criminal charges would be considered only in cases involving "traditional espionage." Craig Holman, one of Public Citizen's lobbyists, told me, "They rigged the whole system to make sure we never knew what Kash Patel was doing for Qatar."

[5/?] This incident, in which a federal judge admonished KP for his sloppy dress in court—chronicled by the WaPo at the time—apparently was KP’s joker moment.

Which makes no sense at all because the judge was a Republican appointee apparently known for his racist flourish.
In 2016, while Patel was in Tajikistan interviewing witnesses in one of his investigations, he decided to travel to Texas, for a hearing on a separate case involving a Palestinian accused of providing support to ISIS. With no expectation that he'd be appearing in court, Patel hadn't brought a suit on his overseas trip. When he arrived at the courtroom in Houston, he was mercilessly confronted by U.S. District Judge Lynn Nettleton Hughes. Hughes was known for his antipathy toward D.C. prosecutors who flew in to bigfoot local attorneys. "You're just one more nonessential employee from Washington," he told Patel. Patel had arrived in court wearing a borrowed, ill-fitting jacket, wrinkled khakis, and boat shoes. Hughes asked, "And where is your tie? Where is your suit?" The judge demanded to see Patel's passport. "If you want to be a lawyer, dress like a lawyer," he said. He then asked Patel what purpose there was "to me and to the people of America to have you fly down here at their expense, eat at their expense, and stay at their expense.... You don't add a bit of value, do you?" The judge tossed Patel out of his chambers and sanctioned him with an obscure disciplinary measure known as an "order on ineptitude." Hughes had a history of making inappropriate comments in court about minorities, including Indian Americans, and Patel believed that Hughes had singled him out for abuse. A Washington Post story that chronicled Patel's humiliation-and the judge's cruelty —was meant to be lighthearted, but Patel viewed the piece as a hit job. Years later, he was still stewing over the coverage. "They ran with it and dragged my name through the mud," he wrote in his book. "It was far from the last time the media would slander me." The tie incident "was very personal for Kash," an attorney who worked at Main Justice at the time said. "It was the beginning of his turn." In the years that followed, Patel would lash out at the D.O.J. for refusing to "stand up for me after being attacked by the unstable judge in Houston." He also began to malign news organizations that "will do anything to stop you." Since 2019, Patel has filed defamation lawsuits against the Times, CNN, and Politico, all of which he either later withdrew or saw thrown out by a judge. Patel has also proposed requiring federal workers to sign nondisclosure agreements and have their phones and laptops scanned monthly for any contacts with the press. "We're going to come after the people in the media who lied about American citizens, who helped Joe Biden rig Presidential elections," he told Steve Bannon on Bannon's "War Room" podcast, in 2023. "Whether it's criminally or civilly, we'll figure that out." A numhor of Datol onlloodnoe told mo thot ho ia nrono

[4/?] Guess I’ll just make a thread of this now because I took too many screenshots to choose from

KASH PATEL IS A DEI HIRE
While at Pace, Patel registered as a member of New York';'s Independence Party, a populist, centrist group that endorsed Ralph Nader for President in 2004. He also signed on to an amicus brief supporting the consideration of race in law-school admissions and participated in the Judicial Intern Opportunity Program, a diversity effort aimed at "members of groups that are traditionally underrepresented in the profession, including students from minority racial and ethnic groups." Patel, who interned for a federal judge in Chicago as part of the program, has since become an opponent of such initiatives. Earlier this year, the F.B.I. removed "diversity" as one of its "core values."

First of all, BITCH??

“In the ornate Senate Judiciary Committee room, Patel bowed down to touch their feet-a sign of respect in Hindu culture. At his swearing-in ceremony, in February, he took his oath on the Bhagavad Gita, the revered Hindu text. ‘I am living the American Dream,’” he said.
Patel's parents flew in from India, where they own an apartment and spend part of the year, for his confirmation hearing, in January. In the ornate Senate Judiciary Committee room, Patel bowed down to touch their feet-a sign of respect in Hindu culture. At his swearing-in ceremony, in February, he took his oath on the Bhagavad Gita, the revered Hindu text. "I am living the American Dream," he said. Patel's family is originally from the village of Bhadran, in Gujarat, on India's west coast. His grandparents migrated to Africa in the mid-twentieth century. His father, Pramod, grew up in Uganda, and his mother, Anjana, in Tanzania. In 1972, Uganda's dictator, Idi Amin, promising "to transfer the economic control of Uganda into the hands of Ugandans," ordered the entire Asian community to leave the country within ninety days. Pramod returned to India, where he met Anjana, who had left Tanzania around the same time. They married and emigrated, first to Canada and then to the United States. Pramod, an accountant by training, worked his way up at a company that sold airplane bearings, ultimately becoming its chief financial officer.

Plus all this stuff too.
But dry air doesn't just impact your respiratory system. It can also cause other health issues, like: • Red, itchy and irritated eyes. Both dry air and dehydration (another side effect of low humidity) can leave you without the tears you need to protect your eye. • Sore throat. Dry air means less mucus coating your throat. The result: A scratchy, inflamed throat. • Headaches. Irritated sinuses and dehydration are a nasty combination that often results in headaches. • Dry mouth (xerostomia). When the air you breathe in is too dry, it sucks up the moisture you're harboring in your mouth. • Earaches. Did you know there are mucous membranes in your ears, too? Welp, there are! And when they're dried out, they pitch a fit just like all the others. • Tight, irritated, scaly skin. When the humidity's low, the air draws water from the top layers of our skin. The result is uncomfortable - and sometimes, even leads to a rash. • Chapped lips. The skin on your lips is thinner, more sensitive, and lacks the oil and sweat glands you have on the rest of your body. So, it's little wonder that they withier quickly in dry conditions.

First of all, this judge is a hero.

Secondly, my god this is egregious conduct. Imagine being this judge, driving this poor kid home, only to have ICE threaten to smash your car windows on your way out of the lot??
Multiple sources told Target 12 that Rhode Island sheriffs earlier noticed someone taking photos of the intern inside the courthouse and in Superior Court Judge McBurney's courtroom. When approached, the individual identified himself as an ICE agent and was told to abide by standard courthouse rules, and to stop taking pictures. The intern was reportedly shaken, so McBurney offered to drive him home. ICE agents then surrounded the judge's car and demanded everyone to exit the vehicle, threatening to smash in the windows if they did not comply. Dana Smith, Head of Security Operations for R.I. Superior Court, confronted the agents and told both the judge and the intern to stay inside the car. After an argument, ICE confirmed they had misidentified the teen and left. The intern was released once his ID was checked.

A teenager who just turned 18 was on scene, traumatized—

“I hope it wakes people up and realizes that this is what they voted for”

Brave kid speaking out publicly like this
A Fitchburg teenager was among several people who watched in horror as a man appeared to suffer a seizure while being forcibly removed from his car by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents during a chaotic arrest outside her home Thursday. "Witnessing what happened made me feel gross. I feel unsafe knowing ICE is around," said Michele Devoe, 18. She'd been asleep in her bedroom on Thursday morning when her mother, Crystal Devoe, 46, woke her with a startling revelation. After Michele Devoe had been outside for about half an hour, she said she witnessed the man who was in the car have a seizure. An ICE agent grabbed his neck in an attempt to pull him from the driver's seat of the car as he held the baby, and his body began to shake; his eyes rolled back into his head. "After he seized, they brought him out of the car in handcuffs and brought him to the ambulance," Michele Devoe recalled. "A little later they returned him to [his own] car." "I feel as a white person that I'm sorry I cannot help enough," said Michele Devoe. She added she'd only recently celebrated her 18th birthday and is eager to use her position as an adult "to speak up for what I believe in." "I will do anything I can to boost how I felt about what happened today, and how it keeps happening. I hope it wakes people up and realizes that this is what they voted for," Michele Devoe said.

When you’ve been wrongfully accused and fully vindicated, a public reprimand is absolute bullshit. Relieved for Judge Joseph that she can finally move on from this mess.
Hearing officer Denis J. McInerney wrote that Joseph should be publicly reprimanded as she "inadvertently created the appearance of impropriety and bias" through her handling of interactions with lawyers during the defendant's arraignment. But, Melnerney found, the defense attorney David Jellinek and court officer Wesley MacGregor, not Joseph, planned to evade ICE agents. "Judge Joseph's clear statements on the record, and her other undisputed actions on April 2, 2018, strongly support that she did not authorize Attorney Jellinek's escape plan," the hearing officer wrote. The commission can now recommend discipline to the Supreme Judicial Court. A judge can only be removed from the bench for disciplinary reasons by an act of the Legislature. Joseph had been accused of authorizing Jellinek's plan and then misleading court authorities about her role in it, but the hearing officer wrote that there is not sufficient evidence to support either assertion. And as such, she won't need any further monitoring as she continues her work on the bench, according to Melnerney's report, dated Oct. 31. McInerney wrote Joseph did create the appearance of bias through statements that showed what could be seen as more concern about the presence of ICE than should be relevant for a state criminal judge. Massachusetts court policy is that officials neither help nor hinder immigration enforcement, which is a civil matter that plays out in federal courts. She also erred by allowing a sidebar conversation to be off the record at the request of lawyers. McInerney wrote that this fact pattern — an inexperienced judge who he believed simply made a mistake - typically would garner simply a private reprimand. But because of the public nature of this incident, that "would not serve the interests of transparency." And further, Melnerney wrote at the end of the report, "she is a thoughtful, diligent, and conscientious judge undeserving of the harsh public criticism she has received in connection w…

Republicans cutting off legal aid money in North Carolina and is a level of diabolical I previously did not know was possible. Reaching new levels of ingenuity in their mission to fuck over the poor every day. Impressively unshakeable commitment to the cause.
> And so it is that Republicans at the North Carolina legislature - with the assent of their most reliable of rubber stamps, state Supreme Court Chief Justice Paul Newby - recently enacted a law to bar the state IOLTA program from making grants during the current fiscal year that commenced July 1. > As a result, millions of dollars that would have gone to support legal aid programs - programs that even under the best of circumstances operate on a shoestring and are able to handle only a tiny fraction of the eligible clients who seek their help - are frozen. The cuts are already having a big and destructive impact. Last month, Legal Aid of North Carolina - one of IOLTA's biggest grant recipients - announced it was closing offices in two of the state's neediest communities: Rocky Mount and Pembroke.
