BREAKING: Donald Trump's nominee for FBI Director gets hit with a stunning scandal as it's revealed that he was paid $25,000 by a Russian-linked company to appear in a propagandistic "documentary" in which he demanded the closing of the FBI's headquarters.
And it gets so much worse...
Kash Patel, a noted conspiracy theorist and diehard Trump loyalist, was paid the sum in question by the film company Global Tree Pictures, which is owned by a Russian national.
The company has produced content pushing the Kremlin's anti-Western and anti-democratic views. One of their previous projects was a pro-Russian propaganda campaign that received money directly from a fund created by Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.
The disturbing revelation came after The Washington Post obtained documents outlining the payment to Patel.
In return for the cash, Patel sold out his country by appearing in a conspiracist documentary that pathetically claimed that there was a Deep State plot which "destroyed the lives of those who stood by Donald Trump in an attempt to remove the democratically elected president from office."
The six-part series was called "All the President’s Men: The Conspiracy Against Trump" and aired on Tucker Carlson's online network. Carlson has been a noted defender of Putin's Russia and regularly pushes Kremlin talking points.
Perhaps most disturbingly, Patel stated in the documentary that he plans to "shut down the FBI headquarters building and open it up as a museum to the ‘deep state.’"
Ending the FBI has long been at the top of the Kremlin's wishlist, as the Bureau regularly foils Russian intelligence operations and fights against oligarch corruption.
If Trump gets his way, the man who wants to destroy the FBI will be entrusted with leading it.

BREAKING: CNN just completely exposed Donald Trump for creating a fake whirlwind story about revoking President Biden’s security clearance. Everything Trump does is a distraction from his failures. Don’t fall for it.
When your economic policy is defined by playing a giant game of chicken with our closest allies over tariffs, it’s no surprise the American economy will suffer.

Trump ran on helping farmers. By slashing our foreign aid budget, he's making sure that farmers pay the price for one of his first acts back in the Oval Office. https://t.co/Rs88cOUire

Historic.
DOGE is a trojan horse for Elon Musk to gut labor, consumer, and environmental protections.
If he actually wanted to cut waste, he'd look at the massive tax loopholes, government contracts, and subsidies that benefit the wealthy and large corporations.
So it turns out when you DON'T go woke, you go broke.

Folks, Trump & Elon are intentionally trying to bury us in bad news. Watch our quick explainer on what’s happening at USAID, why it matters, and what we want to do about it.
Efforts to gut our federal workforce are reckless and dangerous.
