Issues took a flip when Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) began asking FBI Director Kash Patel questions concerning the Epstein recordsdata and why Ghislaine Maxwell was moved to a minimal safety federal facility after she was interviewed by Trump’s DOJ.
Sen. Schiff requested:
When Todd Blanche went to interview Ghislaine Maxwell, she stated.
However did I like suppose these guys had been coming for that? I actually do not. In the event you met Epstein, there is not any approach that this forged of characters, of which it is extraordinary, and a few are in your cupboard, who you worth as your coworkers and could be with him if he was a creep or as a result of they needed sexual favors.
A person needs sexual favors. He’ll discover that they did not have to return to Epstein for that. And the subsequent query, Todd Blanche, the president’s former prison protection lawyer requested, shouldn’t be who within the cupboard. Who’re you referring to? His query is, so when’s the final time you suppose you had been with Mr. Epstein? When he acquired a therapeutic massage. So let me ask you, who’re these cupboard members that Maxwell, Ghislaine Maxwell, was referring to that had been a part of this forged of characters? Related to Mr. Epstein. Who’re they?

Schiff responded:
The American public can learn everything of that. One final query, since you clearly will not inform us the cupboard members related to Mr. Epstein.
Proper after she offers this testimony in entrance of an FBI agent, amongst others, she’s transferred to a minimal safety jail, not appropriate for a intercourse offender like herself. Who made that call and why?
Patel stated, “The Bureau of Prisons.”
Schiff fired again, “The Bureau of Prisons selected their very own with none session with Blanche or anybody else. That they had been gonna abruptly after this interview, utterly unrelated to this interview, utterly unrelated to something she stated, transfer her to a jail, not appropriate for a intercourse offender. You need the American folks to imagine that. Do you suppose they’re silly?”
The query set Patel off, who then began calling Adam Schiff a liar and screaming about Russiagate as he utterly misplaced management. Schiff then known as Patel an web troll and stated which you could make an web troll the FBI director, however he’s nonetheless an web troll. Schiff requested 91-year-old Chuck Grassley to get management of his listening to.
Schiff uncovered the sore spot for the Trump administration, and Patel went off. Plus, the knives are reportedly out for Patel inside the Trump administration, so the FBI Director was in all probability making an attempt to create a viral second that may land on Fox Information and make his boss comfortable.
Patel wasn’t good in this hearing, and Adam Schiff made him look even worse.
