President Trump’s FBI Director nominee, Kash Patel, has already claimed his first Democrat victim in what is expected to be a highly contentious confirmation hearing.
As The Gateway Pundit’s Jordan Conradson reported, Patel sat down this morning to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee for confirmation beginning at 9:30 A.M. Patel’s impressive qualifications include several high-ranking positions in the intelligence and defense communities, such as Department of Defense Chief of Staff and Deputy Director of National Intelligence under President Trump.
The Gateway Pundit recently reported that Patel is already working with Rep. James Comer (R-KY) and building plans to crush the deep state. Comer revealed that he had a lengthy discussion with Kash Patel and said, “Mr. Patel is the right man for the job. He recognizes the importance of ending the weaponization of federal law enforcement and holding Deep State bureaucrats accountable. Change is here!”
But these facts do not matter to Democrats, especially Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL). As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Durbin has gone all out to stop Patel. He has sent letters to the Justice Department, Department of Defense, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), accusing Patel of working to undermine the transition process between Donald Trump and Joe Biden following the widespread fraud that occurred during the 2020 presidential election.
But he got a cold taste of reality when he tried to ambush Patel on the J6 pardons.
“Do you think America is safer because 1600 people have been given the opportunity to come out of prison and live in our communities again?” Durbin asked.
After telling Durbin he had not had an opportunity to review all the pardons and making clear he had no tolerance for those who harm law enforcement, Patel destroyed him with this brutal reminder:
I also believe that America is not safer because of Biden’s commutation of a man who murdered two FBI agents…The man that point-blank range fired a shotgun into their heads and murdered them was released from prison.”

The person Patel was referring to was far-left ‘Native American rights’ activist Leonard Peltier, who not only killed two FBI agents on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation but also escaped from federal prison.
Patel then dropped Durbin on his head when the senator accused him of racism.
“I certainly don’t believe that an individual who is the first minority to serve as the Deputy Director of National Security is a racist and detest any conjecture to the contrary.”
