Donald Trump's choice of Kash Patel for director of the FBI is sending shockwaves throughout DC.
Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe went into complete meltdown Sunday as he whined that Patel would spearhead a campaign of 'retribution.'
McCabe, who backed the Russian interference investigation into Trump, claimed that Patel - a Trump loyalist - would use the FBI to further the president-elect's political agenda and crackdown on his enemies.
His rant on CNN went viral as people were stunned by the apparent hypocrisy in his criticism of Patel, while he has previously made wild claims that Trump was a Russian 'asset.'
Trump said on Saturday he wanted Patel, a former National Security official and loyalist, to lead the FBI, signaling an intent to drive out the bureau's current director, Christopher Wray.
Patel, who during Trump's first term advised both the director of national intelligence and the secretary of defense, has previously called for stripping the FBI of its intelligence-gathering role and purging its ranks of any employee who refuses to support Trump's agenda.

McCabe said the move 'can only possibly be a plan to disrupt, to dismantle, to distract the FBI and to possibly use it as a tool for the President's political agenda.'

“You’re all fired!” 😇
No doubt Patel is already covered up with snitches wanting to save themselves in exchange for information/testimony.
You know that is what he needs to do. just hand out pink skips like candy.
Nessun Dorma and None Shall Sleep...
He needs to show NO mercy and get rid of the traitors.
Peter Strzk will be greatly disturbed. His ED will greatly disturb his work wife, Page.
Perp walk them out with press. No handcuffs but being escorted out with pics.
You have nothing to worry about if you did not do any crimes, McCabe may want to get an attorney.
The Republican had better stand firm and confirm him.

The Republicans has better stand tall and confirm him.
Republican senators are mortified. The last thing they want is Kash Patel as FBI Director but they’ve already used a lot of their political capital preventing Matt Gaetz from being Attorney General. The RINOs are nervous.
