The deep state just got a major shake-up. The Senate confirmed Kash Patel as the new director of the FBI, and Democrats are in full-blown meltdown mode. The vote came down to a razor-thin margin, with only two usual Republican defectors, Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski, siding with the left in their desperate attempt to block Trump’s pick.
Patel, a longtime Trump loyalist and fierce critic of the corrupt, politically motivated FBI, takes over an agency in turmoil. After years of weaponization against conservatives, the Justice Department has already begun purging deep-state loyalists, demanding accountability for those who orchestrated politically motivated witch hunts, particularly against Trump and his supporters. Patel has made it clear: the FBI will no longer be a tool of the radical left, and its focus will return to actual law enforcement rather than playing politics.
Patel’s confirmation is a nightmare for Democrats, who have spent years relying on the FBI to do their dirty work. Sen. Dick Durbin couldn’t contain his outrage, calling Patel “the worst choice” for the job. Meanwhile, Sen. Richard Blumenthal issued a bizarre warning, saying that Republicans would “rue the day” they confirmed him. If restoring the rule of law is something to fear, then it’s clear why Democrats are worried.
I am honored to be confirmed as the ninth Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Thank you to President Trump and Attorney General Bondi for your unwavering confidence and support.
The FBI has a storied legacy—from the “G-Men” to safeguarding our nation in the wake of…

For too long, the FBI has been used as an enforcement arm of the left, targeting conservatives, censoring free speech, and turning a blind eye to real threats. Patel has made no secret of his mission: clean house, restore trust, and make the FBI accountable to the American people, not the political elite.
Democrats attempted one last-ditch stunt, gathering outside FBI headquarters in a pathetic attempt to derail the inevitable. Their manufactured outrage is proof that they know their days of weaponizing federal law enforcement are over. Patel’s past remarks about shutting down FBI headquarters and exposing corruption within its ranks have terrified the deep state, but the American people are ready for real justice.
With Trump back in charge, the era of unchecked political persecution is coming to an end. Patel’s confirmation signals the beginning of a long-overdue reckoning for those who have turned America’s premier law enforcement agency into a political hit squad. The left can cry all they want, but justice is back.
