FBI Director Kash Patel notes in his interview with Joe Rogan that he only takes the time for one media interview per month and this long-form interview format is his first endeavor.  Director Kash Patel is happy to “finally get to join” Joe Rogan and do something “he has wanted to do since even before, on the campaign trail.”

Director Patel notes in the beginning that several FBI officials have told him they are happy about his arrival as they endeavor to catch more bad guys. According to Patel he replies to them “great, because I don’t know how to do that stuff,” and the agents appreciate his empowerment.  The FBI Director then proceeds to outline the priorities of the FBI under his tenure.

The interview took place yesterday amid the social media blow-up between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.  When asked for his opinion, Patel notes, “that’s out of my lane.” A former federal public defender, national security prosecutor, and senior official in both the Department of Justice and the Trump administration, Director Patel has held roles across the Intelligence Community, Department of Defense, and National Security Council. The interview is almost two-hours long.  WATCH:

Despite what many people say, most don’t want to face the truth. What many people really want is simply constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.  As a consequence, those who are vested in the arts of deception always find an audience willing to be deceived.
