Sen. Dick Durbin torches Kash Patel in his opening remarks, calling Patel "a staunch Trump loyalist who has repeatedly peddled false conspiracy theories and threatened to go after President Trump's enemies."

probably the reality is now gop senators have to rewrite the history to make the conman's alternative reality, a reality. they will be complicit of intimidation bcz they know the intimidation is based on the false claim.
Yea but Durbin is just another old white man who can barely get his bumbling speech out of his mouth. Grassley and Durbin are going to need extra coffee or Diet Coke to stay awake.
I feel like i have seen this show before -- Democratic Senator delivers blistering remarks -- evidence shows the candidate is unqualified and the candidate is shown to have committed immoral acts and said outrageous things - and then the republicans approve them anyways.
They just want to go on the Congressional Record with the truth for posterity’s sake. This scumbag will be confirmed and will do damage as intended. My hope is that one of his own agents smoke him in the end.
this characterization is unfair and misleading, as it fails to acknowledge patel's legitimate concerns and criticisms, instead relying on partisan rhetoric to discredit him.
Senators should have Jack Smith's report with Patel's grand jury (s) testimony (s).
U.S. government is now a criminal conspiracy that obstructed justice and ran out the clock.
Don't forget "2000 Mules". Why isn't anyone bringing that up, a staunch Election Denier in charge of the FBI, he wants to eliminate 11k workers, its all gonna blow up in their faces. Its already starting, Musk forces FAA director to resign, and now a disastrous plane crash, this is just the start.
this hits. Dems can connect with in future arguments:
Trump supports criminals that attack the police if it benefits Trump
Trump tells us through his pardons that if Police are attacked by criminals for the benefit of Trump, the Police are not victims and are not entitled to justice.
All well and good, but none of this matters if the GQP continue to vote in lockstep (often with an assist from a few Dems). His horribleness is why he and all the rest were nominated.

Seems like a cover for graft and/or influence ops... Is he determined to continue this side hustle if he is confirmed? If not, why not?

"Yes. And?"
