Nuclear Secrets in the Shower: The High Cost of the FBI Purge
There is a bitter irony at the heart of American justice today: it seems the best way to get a 'get out of jail free' card is to be part of the inner circle. While the Department of Justice continues to gatekeep the infamous Epstein files—leaving the public to wonder who is truly being protected—it has spent the last few years handing out 'shields' to its own. Take FBI Director Kash Patel, a man who once refused to testify until the DOJ granted him limited immunity. Today, the man who needed a legal safety net to stay out of a courtroom is the one cutting the lines for everyone else. On Wednesday, Patel fired 10 veteran FBI agents who led the investigation into nuclear secrets found stashed in a Mar-a-Lago shower. By sealing the final report and firing the witnesses, the message is clear: in this new era, the law isn't a flashlight—it’s a cloak. When the people who know where the bodies (and the boxes) are buried get a pink slip while the suspects get a promotion, you aren't looking at 'reform.' You’re looking at a disappearing act."
