Hi there, everyone. It's 4 o'clock in New York from explosive new accusations against Donald

Trump's pick to lead the FBI to the push to dismiss a rather open and shut bribery case

against New York City Mayor Eric Adams. To comments

Donald Trump just made in the Oval Office blasting federal judges who have ruled against

his administration, the MAGA movement's efforts to obliterate the rule of law in America

are coming into fuller view today. We begin with the top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee

suggesting that Cash Patel might have lied under oath to Congress and is secretly plotting a purge of career civil servants at the FBI.

In a letter to the Inspector General of the Department of Justice, Senator Dick Durbin says that acting deputy attorney general Emil Bobe told attendees of a January 29th meeting

between top FBI brass and leadership at the Justice Department this.

Quote, he received multiple calls from Stephen Miller the night before.

Mr. Miller was pressuring him because Mr. Patel wanted the FBI to remove targeted employees faster,

as DOJ had already done with prosecutors. Now, according to Senator Durbin, notes from that meeting read,

quote, KP, Cash Patel wants movement at FBI, reciprocal actions for DOJ. Durbin adding this,

quote, it is unacceptable for a nominee with no

current role in government, much less at the FBI, to personally direct unjustified and

potentially illegal adverse employment actions against senior career FBI leadership and other

dedicated nonpartisan law enforcement officers.

If these allegations are true, Patel may have perjured himself before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

For reference, here is what Cash Patel said about this at his confirmation hearing. Are you aware of any plans or discussions to punish in any way, including termination, FBI agents or personnel associated

with Trump investigations.

I'm not aware of that, Senator.

There is no evidence of wrongdoing by FBI employees involved in these investigations.
