YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThis is unprecedented.” Senator Patty Murray confronts FBI Director Kash Patel over his failure to deliver the FBI’s legally required spending plan—and his refusal to offer any timeline.
In this intense Senate hearing moment, Senator Murray demands accountability from Patel, who admits that the FBI still hasn’t submitted its Fiscal Year 2025 spending plan—or a complete 2026 budget request. These are critical documents required by law. The FBI has a $10.7 billion budget, yet its Trump-appointed director came to Congress unprepared, unequipped, and seemingly uninterested in basic oversight.
📉 The result?
1,900 staff lost at the FBI since 2023
Delays in firearm background checks
Weakened ability to fight gangs, violent crime, terrorism, and cyber threats
Total chaos in federal law enforcement leadership
Patel’s answers? Confused, evasive, and contradictory.
Senator Murray's response? “Deeply disturbing.”
💥 This is not just another budget hearing—this is about national security, law enforcement integrity, and the collapse of accountability under Trump-aligned leadership.
