Kristen Welker Tries To Use Barr Quote As A Cudgel vs. Patel But GOP Senator Doesn't Cede An Inch
Posted • December 1, 2024: It might come across as trite, but it keeps getting proven true over and over again--you don't hate the legacy media enough. The latest example came Saturday, after the bombshell announcement by President-elect Donald Trump of Kash Patel as his pick for FBI Director. The wailing and gnashing of teeth from people like former Trump National Security Advisor John Bolton, Biden National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, along with a self-righteous and bland statement from the FBI, have been as good as an endorsement, as we've pointed out Sunday. My colleague Bonchie wrote that a dredged-up quote from former Trump Attorney General Bill Barr's book, which slams Patel as unqualified, was much of the same. GOP Sen. Bill Hagerty of Tennessee appeared on NBC News' "Meet The Press" this week immediately after Sullivan's sit-down with host Kristen Welker, and his comments on Trump's "own hand-picked FBI director," Christopher Wray.
Along with Biden toadies like Sullivan, it appears that Barr book excerpt has been selected by Democrats and their media emissaries to act as a cudgel against any Republican who dares to support Trump's cabinet endorsements. At least, that's what Welker tried here, pressing the senator on whether he disagreed wth Barr on Patel. Hagerty flatly stated he will "support this appointment," pointing out that Kash Patel is highly qualified, and mentioning he has already shown he's the right pick by "uncover[ing] for the American public what happened with Russia-gate." But he wasn't done calling out the gallery of rogues during the Biden administration, whether at the FBI or State, who managed to get/maintain security clearances despite their nefarious activities. This is exactly how our side needs to do it in the unfriendly territory of legacy media. Do not cede an inch. (…)
