Geraldo: Kash Patel Is the ‘Chairman of the Lunatic Wing, the Steve Bannon, Alex Jones Wing of MAGA’

PHILLIP: “But, Geraldo, I mean, the idea that Kash Patel would be the one to reform the FBI, given that, according to a lot of other people who have commented on this, a lot of them don‘t think that he has the qualifications to sort of — in the sort of nuts and bolts of the organization to do the job, but also because, as I mentioned, I mean, he has a list of people that he said he wants to go after, which seems like not the definition of the job.”
GERALDO: “I don‘t know a lot about Kash Patel. I‘ve never met him, as far as I know. All I know is that he seems to me, from what I read and hat I see and hear, is that he‘s part of the, if not the chairman, of the lunatic wing, the Steve Bannon, Alex Jones wing of the MAGA movement. You know, throw Matt Gaetz in there, if you will. But Kash Patel, if you‘re looking for an objective professional, you know, resurrector, a savior of the FBI, you better not hold your breath waiting for Kash Patel to deliver. I think the one thing that Scott said that I think is very important is that he mentioned how the FBI got too political. That is true. That wasn‘t Trump. That was James Comey, before it was — “
CURTIS: “Robert Mueller.”
Carlson: “Chris Wray.”
GERALDO: “Chris Wray. But James Comey mucked up Hillary Clinton‘s electoral run and he went after the president, President Trump in his first term that, in 2017, President Trump could not — he stepped in dog crap and he just couldn‘t get rid of James Comey. He hounded him — another canine metaphor. But I think the FBI needs a cleansing. And I think Christopher Wray was heroic in stepping down. But I also think that the Bureau does need some profound introspection.”
PHILLIP: “Heroic in stepping down?”
Carlson: “Oh, yeah. I mean, look, are you going to wait for Donald Trump to come in and be humiliated and be fired if you’re Chris Wray? No.”
