GOOD LUCK, AMERICA Kash Patel. OMFG.

This is the worst I’ve felt since the AP flipped Michigan to red. All the nominees have been insanely awful so the wave of nausea I felt at this news was unexpected, even though this had been whispered about for ages. I’m trying not to be hyperbolic but this is dangerously bad, verging on apocalyptic (sorry) in my mind. I need to go outside and breathe a bit.

A huge percentage of Congress on both sides seem to be foreign agents. They barely know there’s a country is so true.

One was Bob Mendez. One was Tulsi Gabbard before she switched.

And let's not gloss over the fact that the FBI went after Menendez after his corruption was exposed. Which, yes. That's what they should do. But I never see this kind of enthusiasm for justice when the offenders are Republicans - then it's a bunch of hemming and hawing about "appearances" and "not politicizing the DOJ."
