It's not been a good week for FBI director "Counterfeit" Kash Patel.
A lawsuit filed against an MS Now contributor was tossed out of court the same day that Patel filed a similar suit against The Atlantic. Expect the suit against The Atlantic to similarly be dismissed in due course.
Now comes word that at Patel's direction, the FBI investigated a New York Times reporter for a story on Patel's girlfriend, singer Alexis Wilkins, which Patel didn't like.
That, friends, is clear abuse of power. Wouldn't be surprised at all if the FBI is forced to drop the investigation against the legendary paper.
Not only is Patel acting more like president Trump with frivolous actions like this, but so is Defenseless Secretary Pete Hegseth, who dismissed John Phelan as Secretary of The Navy on Thursday. Seems that Phelan was pushing back on Trump's equally frivolous war with Iran.
We'd sooner see this guy running the Navy.....
Closer to home, it appears that the GOP will need a primary to determine who will fill Elise Stefanik's seat after the Schuylerville native resigned from the House. State GOP leaders have chosen Robert Smullen, but Amsterdam's Anthony Constantino, CEO of Sticker Mule, was endorsed by President Pampers on Wednesday.
Of course, Constantino has also gotten support from two of Trump's fellow geriatrics, Roger Stone and Rudy Goofiani. Just getting endorsed by Trump may well be the kiss of death for Constantino come primary time. Constantino sucked up to Trump with a statue of the man some time back.
This will come back to bite the GOP on its collective tuchis, you watch & see.
