  1. Another reminder….

    “A reminder that a vast majority of the millions who crossed the border illegally during the Biden administration were lining the pockets of cartels like CJNG, paying thousands, sometimes tens of thousands of $ per head to be smuggled into the Unites States. Color coded cartel wristbands littered major crossing areas, as cartels organized their human cargo by indicating who had already paid them.

    A 3+ year free for all – with the cartels earning billions, easily attracting customers with the promise that the US government would release them into the country if they paid the cartels to get them across, and that’s exactly what the Biden administration did in the majority cases with mass catch & release policies.

    And this doesn’t account for the cartels’ drug smuggling revenue.”

  2. Patel is legendary for using taxpayer money for personal reasons, including flying his girlfriend everywhere. And I’m not sure what the FBI is doing in a hockey dressing room……

    The National Post is a right wing rag owned by an American company. The CBC is just reporting the obvious — there was an increase in Cdn travel to Mexico and a decrease to the US. Even if politics wasn’t involved, the currency exchange made Mexico cheaper. Apparently Cdn travel to the US is down 25% but to Mexico up 10%. I imagine others decided Cuba and DR were better alternatives.

    For family reasons, I prefer Europe, which once you get there is cheaper than North America.

  3. He’s also a prominent US citizen on his time off HRW, but you knew that.

    The rest of your meme about taxpayers paying for his free time is trash too.

    “His office insisted this was strictly a business trip” – That is not what happened. You tried to claim Kash only went to Italy for hockey. I responded 2/19 outlining the meetings we had scheduled and said any other personal expenses would be reimbursed. Here’s the email.”

  4. The hockey team celebration was but an hour of a multiple days long trip.

    Are you next to complain that he took time to eat and sleep too, and wasn’t performing his duties.

    Just stop. Your TDS is showing.

    “A great meeting with some of Italy’s most influential business leaders in the beautiful and historic Camparino in Milan’s Galleria.Thanks to Luca Garavoglia for hosting me, @FBIDirectorKash, and Ambassador to NATO @MattWhitaker46. Cheers to growing the US-Italy economic relationship together!”

    “Great visit with the Milan Joint Operations Center, a 24/7 interagency operation with international partners to support the Winter Olympics and Paralympic Games. The JOC is focused on protecting the US athletes, 250,000 US citizens who traveled to Milan for the games, as well as the private sector companies we share information with every day.

    Nearly 100 US Government personnel have been surged to support the Olympics since the start of 2026 – with lessons we’ll take into the FIFA World Cup later this summer.

    Thank you to Consul General Benning and the entire US Consulate Milan team for hosting – as well as DSS, FBI CIRG, and President Trump’s interagency teams for working around the clock to secure this incredible event”

  5. Found this most interesting as well.

    This one explains a lot, and why educators are so easily indoctrinated to the liberal educator union’s causes. Turns out they’re just not that bright.

    “Teachers average among the least intelligent university graduates.

    In a given year, the lowest-scoring groups on the GRE, SAT, and ACT are usually those pursuing degrees in education.”

    “Gavin “I Grew Up Poor” Newsom was in the SF Chronicle 1991 “Children of the Rich””

    “BREAKING – Gavin Newsom tells a crowd of Black Americans, “I’m like you. I’m a 960 SAT guy. I can’t read.”

    Just as bad as Biden’s “Poor kids are just as bright as white kids,” and Hochul’s “Black children don’t know what a computer is.”

  7. The US hockey team victory was a special moment – no need to make a mountain out of a molehill just b/c FBI Director Patel was celebrating with them. It only makes it more special…
