6 Craziest Revelations From Scathing Report on Kash Patel — Including His Refusal to Leave a Plane Until He Was Given a Female Agent’s Jacket

[Belk]

Strongman is used as a pejorative when referring to a political or military leader. Putin for example is often referred to as a being strongman.

Please explain how that changes my observation?

It sounded to me like you misinterpreted the term strongman to mean someone who tends to be fair and generous. Terms like strong as in virtuous, and strong willed, and strongman are not synonymous. Therefore it doesn't make any sense to compare the term strong as in virtuous to the term strongman just because they both contain the word "strong". Otherwise one might as well throw strong odor into the mix.

I think there doesn't seem to be any evidence that the report is authentic in any way.

So you think those Republican Senators just received an FBI file from some "precocious 15 year old" and then entered into record?

How come you extend yourself to such a lack of reason that you allow yourself to think those thoughts?

Folks complain about people who give trump a hard time all the time having a derangement syndrome but constantly making excuses for poor performance and excusing ineptitude seems a better way of describing a derangement.

Huh. Well that is an interesting view, but that was not my point. My point is that being mediocre and being a strongman are not mutually exclusive. In point of fact I think they go hand in hand.

I ALMOST always conquer...as if it's "covering" for something.

Could you give an example of someone in history who's described as a mediocre strongman?

No, but I can give multiple examples of people who I think are mediocre and also happened to be strongmen. Let's not confuse things by combining terms in unusual ways.

So the report comes from www.scribd.com rather than a .gov source and it was uploaded by NYT.

And the NYP seems to credit it back to SCRIBD.

And says "The report was written in the style of an official FBI intelligence assessment". Is it supposed to be from the FBIAA? Does it exist on any actual FBI website? I'm calling it codswallop until it's proven otherwise.

Really?

Scribd isn't a source. It's a document hosting platform. It was uploaded to Scribd by the NY Post:

I don't trust the NY Post, so I'm not giving much credence to this "report". I'm only commenting on the description of scribd as a source. It's not.

Patel is taking it seriously enough to go on the Ingraham show and defend himself to a friendly audience.

“But when they’re talking about raid jackets and Velcro and FBI plane use, they are not talking about the facts because they know this FBI is succeeding in ways prior leadership failed. And those cronies will always stick together and, of course, band together with their enemies to come in and attack us.”

What I said is no actual source is cited. When trying to find citation of the source all that's found is an NYP scribd loop. If I thought scribd was the source, then I wouldn't have said that it has no disenable source.

You mean like, they didn't use APA style or what?

And how to do cite a primary source to itself?

I mean "the actual" cited source is right on the first page of the study:
A National Alliance of Retired and Active Duty FBI Special Agents and Analysts.
If you read through the report, it is CLEARLY written with a pro-Maga slant.


Why would those Senators and/or their committee accept this report if they questioned it's veracity...AT ALL.?

I couldn't find conformation of "A National Alliance of Retired and Active Duty FBI Special Agents and Analysts" being an actual thing.

Where did you get that from?

You didn't say that, either.

If you thought scribd was the source, you might have said something like, "so the report comes from www.scribd.com rather than a .gov source" or "and the NYP seems to credit it back to SCRIBD" ?

But whatever.

The report comes by way of scribd rather than a .gov source. That doesn't mean scribd is included as a source, it means the actual source can't be pinned down.
