Kash Patel crows "NO ONE is above the law" while reporting to an adjudicated rapist & convicted felon

I'm old enough to remember when John Roberts placed a dab of anointed oil on the forehead of Christ Child Donald, and spoke in hushed tones, "Yea, verily, thou shalt be above all laws of mortal men, for you are the chosen one."

CNN observed FBI personnel at the former US national security adviser’s house in the Washington, DC, area. They were seen speaking to a person on the porch of the house, and at least four to six agents were seen going inside.

Reached by CNN, Bolton said he was unaware of the FBI activity and was looking into it further.

The search was first reported by the New York Post on Friday. In a post on social media, FBI Director Kash Patel wrote that agents were “on mission,” but it was unclear if he was referring to the search.

“NO ONE is above the law… @FBI agents on mission,” Patel wrote. The FBI declined to comment on the search.

I mean, he's a republicon. So he's got that going against him.

But he's also sly and sleazy, so...I figure the Krasnov Gestapo (r) will only find shit that they plant.

It sounds like John Bolton wasn't even on the premises during the raid. Patel is nothing but a political operative.

This is engineered by Chump to get the headlines off the Epstein evidence.

As were pardoned felons Steve Bannon and Paul Manafort, among many others. It’s only against the law to criticize the Dear Leader

Trump's venomous rage against Schiff is well documented. If I were buying a square in the office pool, I'd put $1 on Schiff.
