Fascist take over of federal law enforcement. This must be stopped or our democracy will end.

I don’t believe a word out of his F’ing mouth.

mommamia.bsky.social•48 days ago

The Republicans will regret acquiescing all of their power if they confirm this nomination.

They will be coming after you, too.

jaymeruimveld.bsky.social•48 days ago

They lie like they breathe. Under oath is a quaint little saying that applies to the other people.
This is about #greed
Greed for POWER
Greed for CONTROL
Greed for MONEY

" I can't recall " is the last refuge to which a scoundrel clings.

cleoloughlin.bsky.social•48 days ago

He lies.

lcmacveteranaz.bsky.social•48 days ago

He is absolutely lying. Check Bannon’s podcast.

mnirisheyes22.bsky.social•48 days ago

He LIED.

deeann1.bsky.social•48 days ago

Of course he knew. Guaranteed, Trump got the assurances of complete compliance from each and every nomination. They all knew in advance what the plan was.

everest57.bsky.social•47 days ago

He’s a liar just like his boss and his other cohorts.

jodiejack.bsky.social•43 days ago

Kashyap is a liar and doormat for Trump.
Please call him Kashyap his given name

jodiejack.bsky.social•48 days ago

Kashyap is so dangerous.
Feel free to address him by his real name

lbdinosaur.bsky.social•46 days ago

This guy doesn't belong in government- he should be confined to a memory care unit.

indigoreflection.bsky.social•47 days ago

That wasn’t even 2 weeks ago! Do we need anyone in charge of anything who can’t recall am event so major?

booond.bsky.social•47 days ago

He can't remember something from a week ago?

realgirlvibes.bsky.social•48 days ago

Yes yes yes

rightsbeacon24.bsky.social•47 days ago

I'm sure he did

terryannedc.bsky.social•47 days ago

He’s
A
Liar

biggestrascal.bsky.social•48 days ago

I call bullshit on lash patel

anothermeansgirl1.bsky.social•46 days ago

Patel obviously has cognitive issues. He can’t remember anything including being on a podcast 8 times but not sure he knows anything about that

artistrandy.bsky.social•48 days ago

His memory isnt clear when it comes to perjury.

dan-occ-light.bsky.social•47 days ago

Can FBI sue Patel for conflict of interest? I mean, he’s not confirmed, he may have lied under oath based upon written evidence … there is a material basis I’d think.

amberh9133.bsky.social•48 days ago

Of course he was

justsif.bsky.social•48 days ago

Not to be rude, but we knew the guy was going to lie the whole time. He's got a book literally detailing how he is a bad faith actor.

I respect that you cannot come out and say that, but I don't think anybody should be surprised. I guess that's all I'm saying.

hhersh.bsky.social•47 days ago

Oh. Ok. I believe him. 🙄

hersheykiss.com•47 days ago

Nominees are going to lie they already know they are getting confirmed no matter what.

kmkinville.bsky.social•46 days ago

Seems like someone seeking to oversee the FBI needs to have a better memory than "Not that I recall" since the new administration was only in place for 10 days before his hearing!

beachylinda.bsky.social•48 days ago

He's lying...as usual

neselyn.bsky.social•46 days ago

I came across this post/article the other day. It looks very concerning. Please read?!

Liar

thewhiner.bsky.social•47 days ago

Who would expect him to "recall" something so insignificant?

sunshine3031.bsky.social•48 days ago

He knew & lied! He's been part of it!

elpenguino.bsky.social•48 days ago

so we're supposed to confirm someone who can't remember something that happened 1 day ago?

oscarthe.bsky.social•47 days ago

That old chestnut!

annabanana47.bsky.social•48 days ago

One of the most lazy and infuriating sentences, "not that I recall." Them's fightin' words, pal. (My narcissistic ex used that phrase all the time to control the narrative)

ldog562.bsky.social•48 days ago

I wouldn't trust Kash Patel as far as I can throw em. Everyone that he's picking has the most important thing in common, They all will do whatever their dear leader tells them to including using our military on American citizens, any Dem who votes to confirm any of his pics are done with me

kateprotests.bsky.social•48 days ago

I have to wonder if individuals with such weak recall abilities should be given jobs that are so important. I’m sure there are janitorial jobs available that we could offer them.
