The FBI director fired the agents investigating him, then got sued for it. Meanwhile, Israel’s parliament passed a death penalty law that applies to one ethnic group but not another – and the guy who pushed it wore a noose pin to the vote.
Kash Patel Is Being Sued By Agents He Fired for Investigating Him
Kash Patel was subpoenaed in the same January 6th and Mar-a-Lago cases he’s now using as a firing list. Three FBI agents who worked those investigations just filed a class action lawsuit after being terminated. The FBI director is purging the people who investigated the crimes he was personally involved in – and calling it reform.

Israel’s Knesset voted to make the death penalty mandatory for Palestinians convicted of killing Israelis – while Jewish Israeli citizens get the option of life imprisonment for the same crime. Two different legal tracks, sorted by ethnicity. Itamar Ben-Gvir showed up to vote wearing a decorative noose pin on his lapel. Israel hadn’t executed anyone since Adolf Eichmann in 1962.
