Definitely an important national priority.

Finding and jailing a shitposter.

"Fight", not "find". He was telling them to keep posting favorable posts in response to the guy. Which is, on one hand, is less concerning, but on the other hand...he's deploying FBI personnel to participate in flamewars on Twitter with a troll who insulted him.

One day I wish to shitpost so hard the glowies show up.

It's an admirable goal.

I have difficulty understanding how Kash Patel can look in a mirror every morning and fail to acknowledge that he's one of the biggest douches in the universe.

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Don't worry, Kash Patel finds most things difficult to understand.

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Well, except bestiality.

Thats AOK in his books, apparently. Possibly even encouraged for new FBI recruits.

Yeah, but jailing him for what? He didn't break any laws.

Honestly, I don't care if Kash Patel got his feelings hurt and responded personally as a citizen, but using any FBI resources on this is a complete waste of taxpayer money.

As if not breaking a law has ever stopped a fascist from arresting, raping and murdering an innocent citizen.

That's the conservative way!
