FBI Director Kash Patel has reportedly requested a direct, secure line from his home and FBI office to the Oval Office—bypassing Attorney General Pam Bondi and cutting out the traditional chain of command.
According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, Patel’s first order of business after taking the helm at the FBI was securing a direct connection to President Trump.
For decades, every FBI director since J. Edgar Hoover has maintained an arm’s-length relationship with the White House.
But under Trump’s leadership, Patel is taking a different approach—one that ensures the FBI is aligned with the administration’s agenda, rather than operating as a rogue, deep-state stronghold.
The Journal reported:
Patel’s determination to keep in close contact with Trump himself is an arrangement outside the traditional chain of command in which the FBI director reports to the deputy attorney general, and the president usually talks only to the attorney general.
It is but one example of how on matters big and small administration officials including Patel and senior officials at the Justice Department have deferred to Trump and his deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller since taking office, the people said. Miller has regularly talked to top officials at the Justice Department, including about the FBI, the people said.

What to believe here!
Read the comments section below the article.
Good move. Bondi is a big disappointment. Patel doesn’t trust her, that’s a damn big signal. Thank you Kash, for holding the line.
God bless and protect Kash Patel, his family and loved one, this nation and the whole world. Amen.

There is no independent confirmation beyond the initial reporting from sources like The Wall Street Journal and The Gateway Pundit, both of which rely on anonymous sources. The FBI has outright denied the claims, and no hard evidence (such as documents, official statements, or verified leaks) has emerged to support them.
Until more concrete verification appears, this remains an unconfirmed report.
I read on X that Bondi likely has her own direct line to Trump’s Oval Office so this might just be a tempest in a tea pot.
Just think Comey...who tried to set up Trump with his "classified" memos.
well one thing we have learned from recent history...the old way of doing things didn’t work very well and left too many avenues of sabotage open to the bad players we KNOW infest and infect the top tiers of government so bypassing the many departments of BS would seem appropriate.
They are all on the MAGA UNf*ck Biden's America team, and if a direct line to POTUS helps Patel with that, so be it.
No stupid power games, please.
The Wall Street Journal is about as reliable as the SF Gate.
Biden broke all tradition. Didn’t sign any bills and ate puddin’ while his unelected staff ran the whole shitshow.
Epstein files!
“bypassing Attorney General Pam Bondi”
I don’t blame him. He’s been around behind the scenes for a long time. He knows Barbie is protecting deep state people. If he were to recognize the chain-of-command protocol, nothing would be passed on to POTUS.
Tradition, my arse. We’re talking about preserving the Union against enemies foreign and domestic here.
Yep. Hated the pick when it was made in a rushed fashion after the dumb, doomed-from-the-start Gaetz pick. Pam is living down to my expectations. Weak and dumb.
More anonymous sources with no evidence, and no proof.
“Bondi likely has her own direct line to Trump’s Oval Office so this might just be a tempest in a tea pot.”
Of course Barbie does, but that isn’t even close to the point. Kash cannot TRUST her. He won’t be able to do his job if Barbie is the middle man. She’ll be where issues go to die.
“They are all on the MAGA UNf*ck Biden’s America team”
Are you sure about that?
doubtful Bondi would want to the gatekeeper of Trump’s hand-picked appointments
Bingo!
It is a good move so long as there is a MAGA admin.
