Kash Patel Shows up to Budget Hearing with no Budget

He sounded like the kid who didn’t do his homework and just plain didn’t want to…
No, he made her look weak and stupid. :dunno:
 
FBI Director showed up to his budget hearing, without a proposed budget, despite law requiring it had been submitted a week before.
Thats funny right there.

MURRAY: And you have no timeline. Well, we also need a full budget request, not a single paragraph full of wild talking points that we saw with the skinny budget proposal. We’re now having a budget hearing without a budget request. So, Director Patel, where is the FY 2026 budget request for the FBI?

PATEL: It’s being worked on, ma’am.

MURRAY: Have you reviewed it? Have you approved it?

PATEL: But not yet.

MURRAY: When will we get it?

During a Senate hearing to review the FBI’s FY2026 budget request, Director Kash Patel was forced to admit that, despite the law requiring it, he had no such request ready to review.

PATEL: As soon as I can get it from my interagency partners and get it approved.

MURRAY: Six months from now? I don’t know, ma’am, I’m not going to take that time. Well, how do we, as Congress, do our budget and our work without that request and without the spent one?

PATEL: Well, ma’am, I’m here. I’m doing the best I can. I can’t make up answers. I’m going to commit to you to work on getting you the information you need.

MURRAY: That is insufficient and deeply disturbing. No response.

PATEL: I’ve given my response.

Patty Murray is a class "A" lunatic.
No one pays attention to her.
