Sometimes the news is plain weird; that’s just a fact.
We’ve been describing how the House Judiciary Committee on Thursday has been exposing the excesses of former Special Counsel Jack Smith, forcing him to spin like a top to explain his quixotic quest to bring down Donald Trump with his endless, multi-million dollar Arctic Frost election interference probe.
The investigation and the subsequent prosecution ended when Trump won the presidency.
But I couldn’t have guessed that some of the officials involved would be so juvenile and craven as to make themselves a trophy for their failed efforts. According to FBI Director Kash Patel, however, that’s exactly what they did:
People ask why I said the old FBI was a diseased temple.
This is what corruption looks like when it thinks no one is watching:

I disbanded CR-15 and removed the corrupt actors involved.

So when legacy media cries that President Trump’s FBI fired people and made sweeping changes, I have one response:
You’re damn right we did.
The elites and the media love to talk about what they see as Trump’s tacky taste, but what are NY Times’ biting style writers going to say about this monstrosity? It’s just plain butt-ugly:
The bizarre metallic-colored, 3D-printed award featured “AF” with a lightening bolt and dollar sign printed along its body and a raised map of the U.S. on its base, which also included miniature buildings and infrastructure. “CR-15” was printed along the base. CR-15 is a now-disbanded FBI unit that served as a public corruption squad.
“People ask why I said the old FBI was a diseased temple,” Patel wrote on X. “This is what corruption looks like when it thinks no one is watching.
“I disbanded CR-15 and removed the corrupt actors involved,” he continued. “So when legacy media cries that President Trump’s FBI fired people and made sweeping changes, I have one response: You’re damn right we did.”
Boom.
Even the abominable Obama Presidential Library is more tasteful than this piece of garbage:

YOU DON’T KNOW JACK: Jack Smith in the Hot Seat at House Judiciary Committee As Jim Jordan Lights Him Up but Good
Jack Smith’s Memory Lapse: Forgot His Own Oath – but Not Trump’s ‘Crimes’
What has been coming out of the Judiciary Committee all day Thursday has been jaw-dropping as Smith flails and dodges, trying to pretend that he is somehow holier than thou even as the DOJ raided Trump’s home — including wife Melania’s lingerie drawer and son Barron’s bedroom — spied on GOP lawmakers, and just generally made a mockery out of the U.S. legal system. Dictators in banana republics around the world took note: “This is how you do it.”
If these DOJ jokers really made such an idiotic trophy for themselves, then they should be ridiculed for the rest of their careers. It looks like something North Korean despot Kim Jong Un would have forced his minions to make for him.
We knew things took a corrupt turn under Joe Biden’s DOJ with AG Merrick Garland at the helm, but this is borderline insane.
I don’t mean to be rude, former Biden people, but y’all sure look like real idiots with this one.
