MURRAY: It was due last week. By law.
PATEL: I understand.
MURRAY: You're not gonna follow the law? ... And you have no timeline?
PATEL: No
MURRAY: Hmm. We're not having a budget hearing without a budget request. So where is it?
May 8, 2025 14:06I wish I could stand next to Kash so I could nicely put my fist through his face‼️
I’m sure if the Democrats answered like this and they were just like I will get the fucking paperwork whenever it comes around you know I’m sure it would be no big deal but the law and order party, the Republicans what a fucking joke that is they’re a bunch of clowns
Pascal is a liar and traitor!
what a dick
"Dog ate my homework" energy.
Am I the only person who has noticed how he gets a crazy look in his eyes when he’s getting questioned about his job performances or lack of? His eyes dart back and forth like he is desperately looking for a quick escape.
So defund the FBI?
I guess he wasn't working on the budget in those Las Vegas strip clubs.
Fairly certain I'd get shown the door for what is a clear lack of performance.
Since the FBI isn't interested in providing a budget outline, seems like they don't need a budget for the next fiscal year.
Didn't Elon say that workers had to go to work in the office ... Hypocrisy, thy name is Republican
Arrogance, disdain, and incompetence on display. Patel is just an angry empty suit drunk on new found power flexing his authoritarian yearnings. He will take the FBI to a dark place that even J. Edgar Hoover never dreamed of. Patel is an unparalleled danger to our civil rights and freedom.
Outside withholding funding altogether (which they won’t do), he KNOWS Congress will do absolutely nothing to him or his team. They will kick the can and he will control the narrative and submit it when he wants (if at all).
Kash has the look of a man who is just realizing his Cosplay got real. "I don't know" is the mantra of Donald & his Regime.
Hey man. You work for us now.
Another instance of someone incompetent being put in a position of power. Only to bring down the very agency they are put in charge of. In the end they will tell you "See we told you the government doesn't work. Just let us run things as a dictatorship and everything will be so much better."
How much is this inefficiency costing the country compounded by congressional delays ?
I’ll await the Executive Branch’s collective
*DEI!* protestations
His dog ate his homework.
Bug eyed conspiracy laden troll ruining the fbi. Great job.
Anyone else in any job when they showed up to a meeting without having done the work or having anything to provide to the bosses but excuses would be summarily fired with cause. This guy needs to actually get into the office and do his job instead of fucking around in Vegas or with his trainer.
It’s the most basic responsibility his position has and he can’t even manage that.
Pure clown show with the group. No one has a clue what they are doing. They think their hate is enough to propel them to success. JFC.
Ooooh, he sounds like he has an attitude. I know this MF isn't trying to be a smart ass cause I can tell you, I made it alive through the teenager stage, let me at him. I can be disrespectful, petty, and a bigger smart ass.
Oh, no budget? Ok, you're on MY budget then. We created one for you.
There is zero accountability. Why would he follow the law if there aren't any consequences!
He’s too busy jetting around at our expense. Why would he do his job? Nobody is holding him accountable.
🥴🥴🥴. Cross eyed douche
He's too busy sitting his ass in Las Vegas doing nothing to do his "job".
What ever happened to the man who would go into the Whitehouse and "drain the swamp" and tell everyone "you're fired"? Oh wait, it's only for people that oppose him.
These Trump goons think they are figureheads of a private company. They do not respect our government nor the American people
Ikea has better cabinets. Inept and waaaaay over their heads but also just don't care about the constitution, oversight, or the laws.
Outrageous. Hope punishing the Biden administration was worth it, folks. Thanks!!!!
man, come on, he was very busy with flying to all those sports event.
It’s like a mix of incompetence and bravado. A victory lap for abject failure.
Mueller will always be the greatest FBI Director of all-time. Patel is such a joke.
Dick
This can’t be real

Massive 'No Kings' protest expected to rain on Donald Trump's (military) parade

PATEL: Ummm...DEI ate my budget request?
MURRAY: Get out.
