In this brief commentary, the speaker argues that former DOJ official Kash Patel is uniquely qualified to rebuild public confidence in the FBI. Citing a whistleblower, Stephen Friend, the speaker claims Patel’s non‑partisan record—highlighted by his 2017 Assistant Attorney General’s Award from then‑Attorney General Loretta Lynch—makes him the ideal choice to “follow the law, arrest bad guys, and resurrect trust.” The speaker notes that only about 40 % of Americans view the FBI favorably, framing Patel’s potential leadership as essential for the nation’s well‑being.

So I think Kash Patel, just following the law, right, and arresting bad guys, will do a great job. Frankly, I wish the FBI was being dismantled. But as Stephen Friend, FBI whistleblower, told me in a podcast, if anybody could resurrect the trust of the FBI, it is Kash Patel. But Kash Patel, he'll bring that. He wants to restore trust. He said, what did he say? He said he was honored to receive the 2017— listen to this— this guy worked under the Obama Justice Department. He received the 2017 Assistant Attorney General's Award from Loretta Lynch. This guy isn't a partisan, not when it comes to the law. I mean, just an amazing— we've got an amazing pick right now. Only 40% of Americans hold a favorable view of the FBI. This is something that has to be corrected for the sake of the country. I think Kash Patel is the guy to do it.
