According to Steve Bannon, President Trump will name Kash Patel as his FBI Director

Kash Patel is a total savage. His plans for the FBI are magnificent.

"I'd shut down the FBI Hoover Building on day one and reopen the next day as a museum of the deep state. And I'd take the 7,000 employees that work in that building and send them across America to chase down criminals."

Pope urges inquiry into Gaza genocide allegations

The pontiff has publicly used the term for the first time, when referring to the Israeli military offensive in the enclave, according to media

In some of his most direct criticism yet, the pontiff has called on the global community to make a legal assessment of Israel’s actions in Gaza.

“According to some experts, what is happening in Gaza has the characteristics of a genocide,” the Pope said in excerpts published by Italian daily La Stampa. “It should be carefully investigated to determine whether it fits into the technical definition formulated by jurists and international bodies.”

The book, by Hernan Reyes Alcaide and based on interviews with the Pope, is entitled ‘Hope never disappoints. Pilgrims towards a better world’. It is due to be released on Tuesday.

The pontiff’s comments also reportedly mark the first time Francis has publicly used the term “genocide” regarding the Israeli military offensive in Gaza and has echoed statements made by the UN. In a recent report, the organization said that the actions of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) were “consistent with characteristics of genocide,” accusing Israel of “using starvation as a method of war.”

Trump to Bypass FBI for Transition Background Checks

The Trump transition team plans to move forward with its own internal background checks, avoiding 'swampy' FBI.

The left clamors as President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team has decided to bypass FBI background checks for a few Cabinet picks, utilizing private companies for the vetting instead.

CNN reported that Trump and Republicans view the FBI vetting system as “slow and plagued with issues that could stymie the president-elect’s plan to quickly begin the work of implementing his agenda.” Trump allies hold that these intrusive background checks may turn up embarrassing information intended to be weaponized for political use.
