Within minutes of Kash Patel's confirmation, Dick Durbin already had this thread up on X crying and seething and bitching and moaning about the evil Republicans who allowed this and how much he fears for the future of the FBI.
So you know he already had this written.
Or at least the idjits who intern for him did.
Take a look at this:
Senator Dick Durbin (@SenatorDurbin) ~ Senate Republicans just confirmed a vengeful, extremist conspiracy theorist to be FBI Director. My thoughts. A THREAD ...
His thoughts.
*yawn*
No ... more like ...
The only ones who care about his thoughts are those of us waiting to point and laugh at him.
Senator Dick Durbin (@SenatorDurbin) ~ After meeting with Mr. Patel, reviewing his record, and questioning him at his hearing, I am convinced that he has neither the experience, the judgment, nor the temperament to lead the FBI.
Dick doesn't seem to understand this only makes us like Patel more.
Yep ... 'cuz Dickie Durbin is like Colonel Klink ... if he tells you to cut the white wire, you most definitely want to cut the black one.

Keep going.
Senator Dick Durbin (@SenatorDurbin) ~ My Senate Republican colleagues are willfully ignoring myriad red flags about Mr. Patel, especially his recurring instinct to threaten retribution against his and President Trump’s perceived enemies — they will soon come to regret this vote.
Perceived enemies.
That's adorable.
We watched it happen in real time, Dick.
Yeah, those enemies were ALL. TOO. REAL.
Senator Dick Durbin (@SenatorDurbin) ~ Mr. Patel has been open about his plans to dismantle the FBI. His alleged directives as a private citizen have already thrown the Bureau into chaos.
OH NO! The FBI will actually start serving Americans again instead of Democrats?
The horror.
Senator Dick Durbin (@SenatorDurbin) ~ Mr. Patel will be a political and national security disaster. With his confirmation, I fear for the future of the FBI.
With his confirmation, we finally have HOPE for the future of the FBI.
Fixed it for him.
Busta Narrative (@BustaNarrative) ~ {Replying to @SenatorDurbin} Senator Durbin has a case of the sads because his beloved Banana Republic is dead.
And it's a glorious day!
The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted. ~ D.H. Lawrence
