@realBrandonGill I want to live in a country where people like you can get the proper mental health you need to wake the hell up and realize that sane Americans are done with your MAGA bullshit! https://t.co/utEQsJUNjI
My friend Jamie Raskin is one of the most careful and principled people in Congress. So when he says the director of the FBI may be running a taxpayer funded slush fund, I pay attention.
Here is what he found.
Kash Patel directed more than $1 million in bonus payments to a small circle of agents in his inner circle and on his security detail.
Some were getting nearly $8,000 every two weeks on top of salaries that were already maxed out at the federal ceiling. A number of them collected close to $40,000 over consecutive pay periods.
The payments came so fast that the FBI’s bonus reserve accounts ran dry and some checks bounced.
So who got the money?
Agents on Patel’s so-called "director’s advisory team."
That is the unit created in 2025 and described internally as a payback squad, built to dig up dirt on the law enforcement officials who investigated Trump and his allies.
Raskin has given Patel until June 29 to account for every payment, every recipient, and any internal review of whether this was even legal.
Patel should answer for all of it.

Utah, Senator Lee's state, completed a comprehensive voter examination. Of two million voters, one noncitizen registered to vote and NO noncitizen voted.
The SAVE Act is traditional Republican nonsense and Mike Lee is an embarrassment to Utah.
@IAGovernor You're a crook just like the rest of the MAGA Republicans! "Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds and her administration defended their refusal to release requested documents to State Auditor Rob Sand regarding the state's Education Savings Account (ESA) program."
Reporter: “Will you hold anyone accountable for the strike on a school that killed more than 100 children?”
Trump: “No. It’s such a strange question to be asked. It’s a long time ago. Mistakes are made. I would ask Hegseth that question.”
You killed 168 little girls and not a single word of regret or condolence. There has never been a bigger piece of human garbage than this fucking monster.
Please, STOP voting these Trump MAGA Republicans into office. They're why we're in this mess to begin with! They have no back bone, they lie and have no solutions to offer the average working person. Except hate, lies and division! Oh, they also love to steal your tax dollars.
Our opponent's first attack ad is already misleading Iowans and even caused the local anchors featured in it to issue a fact-check. Be skeptical and careful with what Zach Lahn says.
JD Vance: "If you go back to every major conflict in human history, they all end with some kind of negotiation."
Lawrence O'Donnell: "No. They didn't.
WWII ended with ZERO negotiations."
How is Yale Law-educated JD Vance so f*cking stupid?
Trump's Iran deal is so fantastic that he won't show it to you.
Trump's Iran deal is so great for America that he won't let you read a word of it.
...Just like his taxes
...Just like his health care plan
...Just like Mexico paid for the wall.
It is all ONE HUGE LIE.
Need MAGA to explain to the rest of us with brain cells how giving Iran $300 Billion is different or somehow better than giving Iran $1.7 Billion?
Explain it to us like we're at a @EricTrump level of intelligence.
Profiting off the Presidency and a lot of insider trading should end @POTUS to prison, @SenateGOP, @LeaderJohnThune, @ChuckGrassley, and @SpeakerJohnson.
If Joe Biden or Barack Obama had traded millions in stocks while in office, your heads would've exploded in anger.
DOE Sec. Chris Wright said that his agency did not aim to punish states that Trump lost the 2024 election in when it canceled clean energy projects in them.
BUT his lawyers said otherwise—causing a judge to order the grants be restored.
