‘Biggest Fraud:’ Kash Patel explodes on Adam Schiff over Ghislaine Maxwell question at Senate hearing

WASHINGTON, DC: FBI Director Kash Patel erupted during a Senate hearing on Tuesday, directing a fiery tirade at Sen Adam Schiff (D-Calif) over questions tied to Jeffrey Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell.

The clash escalated quickly as Patel hurled a series of personal insults, turning the oversight session into one of the most heated exchanges yet between the two men.

Kash Patel blasts Adam Schiff over Ghislaine Maxwell questioning

Schiff pressed Patel about the FBI’s role in the transfer of Ghislaine Maxwell, questioning whether her move to a lower security facility came after she spoke with the Justice Department.

Schiff challenged Patel, saying, “The Bureau of Prisons decided on their own, without any consultation with…anyone else that they will suddenly move her after her interview."

"You want the American people to believe that? Do you think they’re stupid?” said Schiff.

Patel lashed back, claiming his duty was to protect the “weaponization of intelligence from the likes of you.”

The exchange spiraled when Patel accused Schiff of lying in past investigations. “We have countlessly proven you to be a liar in Russiagate, in Jan 6. You are the biggest fraud to ever sit in the United States Senate, you are a disgrace to this institution and an utter coward,” Patel said.

He continued his attack, saying, “I’m not surprised that you continue to lie from your perch and put on a show so you can go raise money for your charade. You are a political buffoon at best,” said Patel.

He added that Schiff’s concerns were misplaced, saying, “But all you care about is a child sex predator that was prosecuted by a prior administration.” Patel insisted prior administrations “did squat.”

Adam Schiff says Kash Patel trying to ‘save his job’

After the hearing, Schiff responded to Patel’s outburst, arguing that the FBI director was more focused on his own survival.

“Kash Patel came to the Senate today not to do his job, but to save his job. The hard-working men and women of the FBI deserve a Director who isn’t just performing for an audience of one,” Schiff wrote on X.

The confrontation was not Patel’s only clash of the day. Earlier, he also engaged in a shouting match with Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ), after Booker suggested Patel might not hold onto his position for much longer.
