1. The one we saw called it a donation and was asked

in the hearing if he was a charity. The answer was no he just needed money. 😄

3. Mr. Friend?

I read up on him today. I’d think he was a plant but plants don’t blatantly show themselves like that. Amongst other things he taped (I’m guessing audio) of conversations with senior FBI leadership.

12. Interesting about Mr. Friend. We were running out the door,

just had time to laugh at the video clip in passing.

21. Security threat

Gloss's security clearance had been revoked two weeks prior after the FBI found that he had entered a restricted area of the Capitol on January 6 and expressed support for the rioters, The New York Times reported on Wednesday.

Allen's clearance was suspended on January 19 last year and rescinded on May 3 this year, The Washington Post said, after the FBI had discovered what the letter reportedly described as a "sympathy for persons or organizations that advocate, threaten or use force or violence." He is currently suspended without pay

Friend's clearance was withdrawn on Tuesday after refusing to be part of a SWAT team seeking to arrest a January 6 suspect last summer, arguing to supervisors that he saw it as an excessive use of force, according to The New York Times.

24. Amazing that people like this can be in the FBI. Whether deficiencies

are in cognition, judgement, temperament, character, fealty to our form of government, whatever, aside from these betrayals, how could they be fit to perform their regular duties? The wrong stuff.

Also today, 35 of 41 L.A. County Sheriff's Deputies under investigation are required to come in to be examined for Executioner and Bandito gang tattoos. Not that they once were affiliated. The Executioners are reported to operate out of the LASD's Compton Precinct (!) and the Banditos operate out of the LASD's East L.A. Precinct (!)

Boggles the mind.

4. For supposed whistleblowers, there sure were a lot of lapses of memory --

"...don't know", "... can't recall", ".... can't remember if they did or didn't".
And how MUCH money? Sounds like Kash Patel needs to be subpoenaed.

5. No one will ever expect Kash. or a check

[Blue Owl]

7. Bwah!

And pity the fool who'd try to Kash that check, if the mail ever finally delivered it....

[calimary]

18. When can we see Kash finally checked?

[Kennah]

6. Does this not make them a dogwhistle blower?

He’s a guided missile with perfect aim! I am DEFINITELY glad (not to mention relieved!) that Goldman’s on our team!

22. Very cool, regimented, and he knows the answer

11. Between Gym Jordan & James Comer...

I don’t think they have a half a brain cell between the two of them. And I’m probably being generous. Roadkill is more intelligent. Seriously.

14. I'm still amazed none of this is illegal

This is so blatantly corrupt, yet Republicans keep getting away with it.

[Botany]

15. No da!

How can you have an honest whistle blower who claims
to have witnessed something that never happened?

[ToxMarz]

16. And we know Kash is a broke ass

So who gave him the money. I bet there's a financial crime there (or embarrassing revelation). Almost always is with these guys.

[calimary]

20. Good question.

One of many!
