'Only The Beginning': Kash Patel Makes Explosive Comment on Merchan, the New FBI, and Ending Lawfare

Judge Juan Merchan in New York held a sentencing hearing just before President-elect Trump’s upcoming inauguration on Jan. 20, according to a report by RedState’s Susie Moore.



At our Townhall Media sister publication, Twitchy’s Sam Janney discussed part of the reaction from Trump’s FBI director nominee, Kash Patel, to Merchan’s sentencing in the Manhattan business records fraud case, which many view as a political attack on a opponent of the leftists/Democrat Party.

Janney, referring to Patel, averred:

…[I] “can’t wait to see what happens when he’s officially in office.

Like, for example, his push to investigate Judge Merchan, his very openly anti-Trump daughter, and lawfare in general.

During an appearance on Fox News on Steve Hilton’s show, Patel did not shy away from sharing his thoughts on the sentencing, showing his strong feelings on the matter.

Watch:

Patel didn’t leave it at that, though. Instead, he used that opportunity as an opening to make news on one of Trump’s priorities–making sure those who chose to commit lawfare are held accountable. That, according to Patel, will absolutely include Loren Merchan, the daughter of the New York judge. He said that he, along with partners in Congress, will issue subpoenas for Loren Merchan’s company, which made about $15M on the trial. That’s the thumbnail, but the entire clip is worth watching, since he gives new details on the plans.

One X user who also shared the clip noted that Trump nominee for Attorney General in the incoming administration, Pam Bondi, was also on the panel–and she was “listening closely” to Patel’s words.

This shows, I think, that the team members with which Trump intends to surround himself have already started to settle in with each other–a real bonus for things to start turning around quickly. We wrote a few days ago about Donald Trump making headway with allies Denmark and Greenland, on developing a more productive relationship with the United States. 

And as my colleague Bob Hoge reminded everyone late Saturday night, the former and future president is rarin’ to go on Day One–on turning back the egregious error of Biden’s ways over the past four years:

Trump will be inaugurated as the nation’s 47 president on January 20, and reports indicate that he plans to arrive at the Oval Office armed with over 100 executive orders dealing with border and energy security. 

Hoge continued with intriguing details on not only what Trump is saying about his plans, but what Senate Republicans are revealing about what he discussed with them in recent meetings.
