If you increase that aperture just slightly to encompass the national capital region, that is 11,000 FBI employees work in the national capital region. A third of the workforce... for the FBI works in Washington, D.C.

I am fully committed to having that workforce go out into the interior of the country where I live, west of the Mississippi, and work with sheriff's departments and local officers, and having one agent prevent one homicide, and having one agent in Washington prevent one rape.

And the biggest problem the FBI has had has come out of its Intel shops. I'd break that component out of it. I'd shut down the FBI Hoover building on day one and reopening the next day as a museum of the deep state. And I'd take the 7,000 employees that work in that building and send them across America to chase down criminals. Go be cops. You're cops. Go be cops.

Go chase down murderers and drug dealers and violent offenders. What do you need 7,000 people there for? Same thing with DOJ. What are all these people doing here? looking for their next government promotion, looking for their next fancy government title, looking for their parachute out of government. So while you're bringing in the right people, you also have to shrink government. Ah, I love it.

Trump, Justice Cabinet's court. You can go forward. There are still avenues to hold Hunter Biden accountable. But my ultimate objective is to hold the deep state actors in the government accountable for all the cover-ups. Hunter Biden should have been in prison long before Joe Biden was ever elected president.

If his name hadn't been Biden, he would have been in prison for a multitude of financial crimes, not to mention his drug-related crimes, his gun-related crimes, and the sex trafficking and all the other crimes that were so apparent and obvious on the laptop. So I believe that the Kash Patel And Pam Bondi are serious about reforming what we all refer to as the deep state.

We absolutely need to address public safety and open air drug use and homelessness in our downtowns because people should be able to go around their daily life and have that freedom. but it also means that they are free from government intruding upon their personal liberty.

Will you personally meet with them?

The FBI and the professionals who are handling the cases will.

You should know that as a real prosecutor, when the court hand downs a protective order and a motion to seal, the material is sealed unless that testimony is that all of those witness statements are under a court order.

According to victims who cooperated with the FBI in that investigation, these documents in FBI possession, your possession, detail at least 20 men, including Mr. Jess Staley, CEO of Barclays Bank, who Jeffrey Epstein trafficked victims to, victims including minors such as Virginia Roberts, you free?

May she rest in peace.

That list also includes at least 19 other individuals, one Hollywood producer worth a few hundred million dollars, one royal prince, one high profile individual in the music industry, one very prominent banker, one high profile government official, one high profile former politician, one owner of a car company in Italy, one rock star, one magician, at least six billionaires, including a billionaire from Canada.

We know these people exist in the FBI files, the files that you control.

I don't know exactly who they are, but the FBI does.

Have you launched any investigations into any of these people?

And have you seen these 302 documents?

Sir, I have asked my FBI agents to review the entirety of the Epstein files and bring forth any credible information.

And we're working with Congress not only to divulge that information and produce it to you, but any investigations that arise from any credible investigation will be brought.

There have been no new materials brought to me launching a new indictment.

The material related to Prince Andrew has been made public.

Is Prince Andrew on the client list?

We have released the index of names that were in Jeffrey Epstein's.

Is Donald Trump on Epstein's client list?

The index has been released, and the index will speak for itself.

A protective order.

We are providing everything we can legally provide.

I don't have the entirety of the photographs, but I think they've been photographed in public together.

No.

How do you know that?

Because that information would have been brought to light by multiple administrations and FBI investigators over the course of the last 20 years.

Now, that's not my question.

My question is, why are those witness statements that are not grand jury testimony, that if they were under a protective order, are no longer under a protective order, why are they not being released?

You raise a great point.

I haven't personally asked to talk to Michael Wolff.

But the FBI, I'll get back to you if the FBI specifically has ever.

I'm sorry.

Dylan Roof?

Roof.

Can you give me some more information?

If you can give me a reminder, I've got a lot in front of me.

How are they not under protective order?

Why are you not going to the court like you did for the grand jury testimony to unseal those records?

That's what I was trying to tell you.

You raise a great point.

The estate of Jeffrey Epstein.

has a voluminous amount of information that they have not released before okay so that's great so um would it be great if fbi subpoenaed the state of jeffrey for all that information the estate is under no obligation to provide that material even pursuant to a subpoena that's a

I want to caution my colleagues on, you know, one-sided

violence in this country.

We just heard that there were no riots on the right.

We're literally sitting in the building where there was a giant riot by supporters of the president, the right.

We also heard that only leftists have said that Trump is a Nazi.

In 2016, the current vice president of the United States said, Trump is either a cynical asshole or he's America's Hitler.

The DOJ did go to the court.

And so this is the problem.

Like, I don't wanna have to say this garbage, but you want me to sit here and get painted with one brush, the whole left.

No, not on those records.

No, no, there are extremes on the left and there are extremes on the right.

Why aren't you going?

And we collectively should tackle that.

But to come here and just look at us and say, we all support what's going on in the extremes is why we can't solve anything

You just went on grand jury.

Time of the gentleman is expired.

You are hiding the Epstein files, Mr. Patel.

Time of the gentleman is expired.

You are part of the cover-up.

Can I respond?

Sure can.

Any allegations that I'm a part of a cover-up to protect child sexual trafficking and victims of human trafficking and sexual crimes is patently and categorically false in the work of my... So I hope you will talk to them when they have requested to speak with you.

The attorney general and I have had numerous discussions about the entirety of the Epstein files and the reviews conducted by our team.

And we have released where President Trump's name is in the attorney's files.

During many conversations that the Attorney General and I have had on the matter of Epstein, we have reviewed.

The question is simple.

Why don't you try spelling it out?

No.

A, B, C, D, F. It sounds like you don't want to tell us.

Why don't you try serving your constituency by focusing on reducing violent crime in this country and the number of pedophiles that are legally harbored in your sanctuary cities in California?

I'll work with you on that.

The number is a total misleading factor.

We have not released anyone's name in the Epstein files that has not been credible.

We have released every piece of legally permissible information.

You can characterize the numbers however you want it.

You're claiming my time, Director.

My job is to provide for the safety and security of this country.

My job is not to engage in political innuendo so you can go out to the sticks and get your 20-second hit in your fundraising article.

Keep going, reclaiming your time because the people of California are being underserved by your representation.

We have released everything.

The president and anyone else's side.

that is credible and lawfully be able to be released.

Your fixation on this matter and baseless accusations that I'm hiding child pedophiles is disgusting.

Anyone that says that needs to look at the stats alone and go back to the state of California, who's receiving the biggest surge in FBI resources through my redeployment because the cities of Los Angeles, San Diego, and San Francisco need it.

I have never spoken to President Trump about the Epstein files.

Donald Trump has not been, and I can only speak for the FBI, an informant of the FBI.

Okay, let me move forward.

The president has, you've seen the picture of the woman's body with the writing and the president's signature.

The president says that's not his.

OK, the president says it's not his.

The Republican colleagues say it's not his.

The administration say it's not his.

Will you be opening up an investigation into the Epstein estate for putting out a fake document with the president's signature linking him to the world's largest pedophile ring?

Will you be opening that investigation into that?

On what basis?

On what basis?

They literally put out a fake document, according to the president, with a fake signature.

It's a forgery of the president of the United States signature.

That's the basis.

Sure, I'll do it.

OK, I look forward to that investigation.

No, I'm saying it was inaccurate.

up

Am I over?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

And yesterday, in an answer to Senator Kennedy, you said the FBI is not in possession of any criminal evidence that Epstein trafficked girls to anyone but himself.

So according to your testimony yesterday and in this committee, according to the evidence the FBI has, the number of names on the list are zero.

The index has been released and the number of people involved in that trafficking operation were charged in 2008.

Other than Epstein and Jelaine Maxwell, your testimony in the Senate and here is that according to the evidence you have, the number of other names is zero.

And what we've been able to release is what we've been legally able to release.

That were charged based on credible evidence.

Who are the other names?

Give me the other names that weren't charged.

We are not releasing the names of anyone because the Department of Justice never does that of anyone that didn't have any credible information.

OK, let me attack them.

Let me move forward.

Simple, because of who's on that list.

And let us know who the pedophiles are.

But who?

That is that I mean, that's under direct control of the director of the FBI.

The number of times?

The Rolodex, which is what everybody colloquially refers to as the Black Book, has been released.

I have reviewed not the entirety of the files.

Personally, no.

What I've been doing is been busy providing the safest country this country has seen in modern U.S.

history in historic speed because the men and women of the FBI are given the resources to reduce the homicide rates, to reduce the drug trafficking rate, to reduce the amount of children that are being trafficked.

So is the loophole here, or is it your assertion that these victims aren't credible, that the 302s maybe didn't produce credible statements that rise to a probable cause?

It's not my assertion, sir.

It's the assertion of two different United States attorneys' offices from three separate administrations who investigated those same materials in lifetime.

The 302 documents in the FBI's possession?

They reviewed all that.

Yes, sir.

And so have you reviewed those 302 documents where the victims name the people who victimized them?

If I personally know, but the FBI has.

So how can you sit here and in front of the Senate and say there are no names?

I said all named one today.

I said we are not in the practice at the Department of Justice and FBI of releasing victims' names.

And I want to understand what the court order prevents you from releasing witness statements that the FBI took.

That is not what we do.

We are also not in the habit of releasing incredible information.

That's not what we do.

But multiple authorities have looked at the entirety of what we have.

Okay.

I've got to move on here.

Were you president?

I got to move on here.

Were you present when the AG had the White House event when she released the binders to social media influencers?

I was, yes.

So if you're willing to meet with social media influencers who stood to benefit from the sensational and sad stories of these victims, will you meet with the victims as well?

The FBI will meet with anyone who has new information.

Himself.

There is no credible information.

None.

If there were, I would bring the case yesterday that he trafficked to other individuals.

And the information we have, again, is limited.

So the answer is no one?

For the information that we have.

In the case file.

And the information we have, again, is limited.

I'm not familiar with that whistleblower.

I'm not familiar with that whistleblower.

So the answer is no one?

For the information that we have.

Well, why was that?

The memorandum had the insignia of the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

And in our effort to secure transparency for the American people, because the three prior administrations had not done so, we conducted an exhaustive search of everything related to the Epstein cases.

And we produced what was legally and permissibly able to be produced to Congress and the American public.

So there's a congressional subpoena and we're continuing to do so.

Again, you are citing reporting that I think is baseless.

We conducted an investigation of the Epstein case files pursuant to the direction of the president of the administration to provide all credible information, and we are working with Congress pursuant to a congressional subpoena to turn over all the documents we can.

All individuals.

The cyber branch is one of the most impressive at the FBI.

409 arrests this year, 169 convictions.

That's a 42% increase from the same time last year.

So any suggestion that the FBI cyber division is not operating at full capacity and better than ever before, the leadership at the branch is implementing these changes necessary to attack the cyber and ransomware infrastructure operators.

You know,

Supremely qualified individuals have those positions.

Are they?

Supremely qualified individuals.

Who are they?

What are the names?

You're not getting them.

I completely disagree with your entire premise that I have lied or misleading the FBI.

If I were, the results that I announced today by the men and women of the FBI and the historic records we are doing to keep this country safe would not be possible.

The men and women of the FBI are responding to our leadership and this administration's priorities.

The only way people get terminated at the FBI is if they fail to meet the muster of the job and their duties.

And that is where I will leave it.

And you accusing me of lying is something I don't take lightly, but I'm not going to get into a tit for tat with

Generally speaking, we always discuss with the White House OMB during the budget process how many personnel we need, who we need, where.

I don't receive directions to do that.

Any termination at the FBI was a decision that I made based on the evidence that I have as a director of the FBI.

And it's my job and I'm not going to shy away from it.

And as you stated, those are allegations and that is an ongoing litigation.

So they'll have their day in court.

So will we.

move her to a prison not suitable for a sex offender.

You want the American people to believe that?

Do you think they're stupid?

No, I think the American people believe the truth, that I'm not in the weeds on the everyday movements of inmates.

What I am doing is protecting this country, providing historic reform, and combating the weaponization of intelligence by the likes of you.

And we have countlessly proven you to be a liar in Russiagate in January 6th,

You are the biggest fraud to ever sit in the United States Senate.

You are a disgrace to this institution and an utter coward.

I'm not surprised.

I'm not surprised that you continue to lie from your perch and put on a show so you can go raise money for your charade.

You are a political buffoon at best.

Well, you can take an internet troll.

Let me just be precise, and I ask for a yes or no answer.

Did you ever terminate or discipline an FBI employee in whole or in part?

Because they had been assigned or worked on an investigation of Donald Trump or January 6th.

FBI employees are only terminated if they failed to uphold their oaths of office and duty.

I don't have to answer your question, yes or no, because you're setting up a trap so you can have a media narrative.

Unless it's true that you fired people.

People have been terminated at the FBI who failed to uphold the standards that the FBI requires them to uphold.

Because as much as you supplicate yourself to the will of Donald Trump and not the Constitution of the United States of America, Donald Trump has shown us in his first term and in this term, he is not loyal to people like you.

He will cut you loose.

This may be the last time I have a hearing with you because I don't think you're long for your job.

But I'm going to tell you this.

I pray for you.

I pray for you that you can step up and defend your oath, defend the Constitution and do a much better job of defending this country.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Do you want to say anything?

Yes, sir.

That rant of false information.

does not bring this country together.

If you want to work on bringing this country, it's my time, not yours.

If you want to talk about dividing this country, I follow you on your social media posts that tear this country apart.

You can try all you want to not

Take responsibility for what you have said.

Sir, you're making a mockery of this committee.

Sir, you don't tell me my time is over.

You can't lecture me.

Yeah, you want to know the difference?

I live in Las Vegas.

I'm allowed to go home.

I didn't leave a congressional hearing early on an FBI jet to dodge questions.

No, I don't.

Well, this is a great point.

Do you know why I have to use a private jet?

Because Congress made it mandatory.

Are you telling me I can't go home?

So when I'm at home, I can't do what I'm doing when I go home.

That's correct.

That's correct.

I pay the commercial equivalent per the regs and the law.

Yeah, and what I've done with the use of the private jet is use Andrews Air Force Base versus Reagan National as what the other directors have done to save the taxpayer dollars.

Well, that's not accurate.

Depending on where you're stationed, the FBI covers the bill to get home.

I don't see it as a mistake.

I see it as something working with the public to identify that there was a subject in custody.

That's not what I said.

Senator, I think there are instances on this legislation that...

could prevent future attacks, but I'm not going to weigh into the creation of legislation.

I have not reviewed the entirety of it myself, but a good amount.

He'd follow up on Senator Kennedy's question because he asked you, and I'll be very precise here.

You've seen most of the files.

Who, if anyone, did Epstein traffic these young women to besides himself?
