FBI Director Kash Patel is shutting down the FBI headquarters in Washington D.C.—a decision originally made under the Biden administration’s FBI.
Symbolically, the closure speaks volumes.
Victor Davis Hanson walks us through the troubling legacy left behind at the FBI HQ on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

“ That same office then gave us Christopher Wray. Why was he spying on parents at school board meetings? Why was he spying on what they called ‘radical-traditional Catholics’? Why did they go after abortion protesters, but not in the same way people who were protesting pro-life?”

What would Efrem Zimbalist Jr say...
If Kash is truly one of us he will invite the J6 families to a ceremony where they get to watch the building being demolished.
Symbolism matters.
I caught a bit of Steve Bannon this morning, and they played a segment of Patel and Bongino’s interview.
Bongino said in so many words that the assassin acted alone in Pennsylvania, in utter contradiction to what we saw with our own eyes.
Bongino makes a big deal out of seeing the records, as if whoever wrote those records were being honest.
Alex Jones said the video came across as a hostage interview. Bannon said he watched it again to see if they were using Morse code with their eyelids. That is hilarious but true. The trouble with Bongino is that with those of us who have heard him enough, he established a base line with us and we can detect when he veers off of it. He left the planet with what he said in that interview.
So Bongino betrayed Trump about as severely as can be done. Don’t know much about Patel but he seems pathetic and was much over-hyped. Comes across as completely spineless. They make a few arrest of the underlings, but the main villians still are free and easy and boasting.
As Bongino said before he went to the dark side, Trump is still in danger.
Patel and Bongino promoted the architects of Jan 6 and calling Catholics and parents terrorists. Both loudmouthed pussies. And their boss is Sessions the second.
Yeah, he might think he is shutting it down. Just wait until some Biden appointed judge gets wind of that.
““I have seen the whole file. He killed himself,” Bongino added in their joint interview at the FBI’s Hoover Building.”
Well, Bongino, if Epstein did not kill himself, can you entertain the idea that the ones who killed him also were the one who wrote that “whole file”????
Do you really think they would spill the beans on themselves?
And what about the Jan. 6 bomb that you were so hot on? Have you read the whole file on that also???
I bet anything in the world that it says there is no there there.
The FBI has never, ever, been an honorable institution, in spite of all the Hollywood movies saying otherwise.
J. Edgar Hoover was a blackmailer and a snoop and that is how the FBI was established and how he maintained such power for so many years.
We don’t need it.
Shut it down.
Tear down the damn ugly building and salt the earth.
Nothing is shit down unless those responsible are in prison. The micro second we are out of power it will got right back to what it was because no one is held accountable. It’s not shut down. It’s just on pause....
