Kash Patel Fires 10 Agents After ‘Shocking’ Wiretapping Scandal
White House chief of staff Susie Wiles was reportedly left “in shock” after learning that the FBI under former President Joe Biden subpoenaed her phone records during high-profile investigations into President Donald Trump, according to multiple reports.
Wiles, who served as Trump’s 2024 campaign manager before becoming chief of staff, told associates, “I am in shock,” after details of the subpoenas became public, Axios reported. The development has reignited debate over the scope of investigative tactics used during the Biden-era Justice Department’s pursuit of cases tied to Trump.
Reuters first disclosed that federal investigators subpoenaed toll records belonging to Wiles and current FBI Director Kash Patel in 2022 and 2023. The subpoenas were issued while special counsel Jack Smith was leading investigations into Trump’s efforts to challenge the 2020 election results and his handling of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.
The records obtained consisted of metadata — including phone numbers and the dates and times of calls — but did not include the content of any conversations.
However, in addition to the toll record subpoenas, the FBI recorded a 2023 phone call between Wiles and her attorney. Two FBI officials told the outlet that the attorney was aware the call was being recorded and consented, but Wiles herself was not aware.
The revelation that the campaign manager of a former and future president had her records subpoenaed has sent shockwaves through Trump allies and congressional Republicans, many of whom argue the move reflects politically motivated overreach.
The subpoenas were issued during an aggressive investigative phase. In 2023, Smith charged Trump with multiple felony counts related to alleged election interference and classified documents retention. Trump denied wrongdoing. After Trump’s re-election in 2024, Smith moved to drop the election interference case, which was dismissed by a federal judge. Smith also dropped the Justice Department’s appeal in the classified documents matter.
The circumstances surrounding that recording have further inflamed critics, who argue that investigative boundaries may have been pushed too far.
Patel, who now leads the bureau, issued a blistering statement condemning the actions of prior FBI leadership.
“It is outrageous and deeply alarming that the previous FBI leadership secretly subpoenaed my own phone records — along with those of now White House chief of staff Susie Wiles — using flimsy pretexts and burying the entire process in prohibited case files designed to evade all oversight,” Patel said.
Patel has stated that one of his early reforms as director was eliminating the FBI’s ability to categorize files as “Prohibited,” a designation he argues limited internal visibility and shielded sensitive actions from routine oversight channels.
The controversy coincided with a wave of firings inside the bureau. At least 10 FBI employees were terminated this week, though officials declined to release names, citing privacy protections.
The FBI Agents Association (FBIAA), however, issued a sharply worded statement condemning the firings
“The FBIAA condemns today’s unlawful termination of FBI Special Agents, which — like other firings by Director Patel — violates the due process rights of those who risk their lives to protect our country,” the association said. “These actions weaken the Bureau by stripping away critical expertise and destabilizing the workforce, undermining trust in leadership and jeopardizing the Bureau’s ability to meet its recruitment goals — ultimately putting the nation at greater risk.”
The revelations come amid broader Republican efforts to examine the investigative conduct of the Biden-era Justice Department. House GOP lawmakers have already held contentious hearings with Smith and other officials, questioning the scope of surveillance tools and subpoena authority used during the Trump probes.
Legal experts note that toll record subpoenas are not uncommon in federal investigations and do not automatically imply wrongdoing by the individuals whose records are collected. However, the political sensitivity of this case has intensified scrutiny.
It remains unclear whether additional subpoenas were issued to other Trump advisers during the same timeframe. Congressional Republicans are expected to seek further documentation from the Justice Department and FBI regarding the scope of records obtained, the legal justifications cited, and the internal review processes used.
BANNED' - Clinton Judge Reads Her Verdict - President Donald Trump Has Been Informed That He Just Beat Gavin Newsom...
JUDICIAL RECKONING
The return of national sovereignty and administrative lethality reached a new milestone this Thursday, April 9, 2026. A blockbuster ruling in Los Angeles has left the DNC establishment and globalist elite reeling.
A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction against California’s controversial "No Secret Police Act," blocking the state from prohibiting ICE agents from wearing masks. Judge Christina Snyder ruled the law unconstitutional, marking a decisive victory for President Donald J. Trump and the Department of Justice.
The court affirmed the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause, stating California cannot discriminate against federal officers while exempting its own law enforcement. Attorney General Pamela Bondi praised the ruling, emphasizing the administration’s zero-tolerance stance on harassment of federal agents.
This decision reflects the 2026 mandate: a legal framework prioritizing the safety of American officers over the sanctuary policies pushed by Governor Gavin Newsom. It signals a sweeping rollback of state overreach in immigration enforcement.
Meanwhile, in Texas, a federal jury delivered historic terrorism convictions against nine members of a radical antifa cell. The group was found guilty for a violent 2025 attack on an ICE detention facility that left a police officer shot in the neck.
Ringleader Benjamin Song faces potential life imprisonment after evidence proved the attack was a coordinated assault using explosives and rifles—not the “noise demonstration” the defense claimed. Prosecutors called the verdict a landmark affirmation of Trump’s domestic terror designation.
With Kash Patel at the FBI and Todd Blanche at the DOJ, the dismantling of extremist cells has accelerated. Federal agencies continue to secure detention centers like Prairieland against those attempting to destabilize the republic.
Governor Gavin Newsom attempted to spin the court ruling as a “win,” citing the upheld “No Vigilantes Act.” But the truth remains: the centerpiece of his anti-ICE agenda—the “No Secret Police Act”—has been effectively struck down.
The defeat exposes the weakening foundation of California’s sanctuary policies. While Sacramento prioritizes the “civil rights” of illegal aliens, the Trump administration is defending the constitutional rights of federal officers.
The week closes as a sweeping administrative triumph for the Trump-GOP platform. From Los Angeles courtrooms to Texas jury boxes, real results—not rhetoric—are forging the 2026 midterm shield.
With 5% GDP growth and a secure border, the nation is reclaiming its stability and sovereignty. America moves forward with vigilance, resolve, and a renewed commitment to law and order.
God bless the USA—and the leaders who refuse to bow to the swamp or the radical mob.
oFar Left 'Squad' Member Learns Her Fate As Her Primary Election is Called
Washington D.C. — The far-left “Squad” took another massive hit Tuesday night as Missouri Democrat Rep. Cori Bush was soundly defeated in her primary by challenger Wesley Bell, who led by double digits with 54.9% to Bush’s 41.8%.
Bush, one of the most extreme voices in Congress, joins Rep. Jamaal Bowman as the second Squad member to lose her seat this cycle. Her defeat is a clear rejection of the radical socialist, anti-police, pro-Hamas agenda she has pushed since entering Congress in 2021.
Bush rose to prominence after participating in the Ferguson riots and has spent years promoting false narratives about Michael Brown while calling for defunding the police — even as violent crime soared in her St. Louis district. She has repeatedly aligned herself with pro-Hamas protesters, blamed Israel for the October 7 massacre, and faced controversy over allegedly funneling thousands of campaign dollars to her husband for “security services” while demanding less police protection for her constituents.
Republicans celebrated the win with well-deserved mockery. Pro-Trump comedian Terrance K. Williams posted:
“A ‘BLACK JOB’ IS SOMETHING CORI BUSH DOES NOT HAVE. OH HAPPY DAY! She is the second Squad member to lose her seat! I can’t wait until they are all gone.”
Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz, who served with Bush on the House Judiciary Committee, sarcastically noted:
“I will miss Cori Bush missing every committee meeting.”
Students for Trump co-founder Ryan Fournier added:
“The Squad’s Cori Bush has LOST her primary. Join me in saying GOOD RIDDANCE! Hamas might be hiring, Cori!”
Even actor Michael Rapaport, a vocal Israel supporter, celebrated:
“Tonight at the rally they said let’s bring back ‘JOY’ to politics and boom CORI BUSH is done with Politics…. I feel JOY all of a sudden.”
This is the second straight blow to the radical Squad. Jamaal Bowman lost his primary earlier after endorsing pro-Hamas demonstrators on college campuses. Both Bush and Bowman blamed their defeats on pro-Israel funding from AIPAC rather than admitting the truth: their extreme, anti-American, and anti-Israel positions have become toxic to voters.
The radical left’s Squad is crumbling because the American people are rejecting their agenda of defunding police, embracing socialism, supporting radical Islamists, and putting foreign interests above American citizens. Voters want secure borders, safe streets, strong economy, and leaders who put America First — not performative radicals who miss committee meetings and push policies that hurt their own districts.
Under President Donald J. Trump’s leadership, the Republican Party is becoming the party of working Americans, law and order, and common sense. Meanwhile, the Democrat Party continues its death spiral — hemorrhaging voters, losing favorability, and watching its most extreme members get rejected at the ballot box.
Cori Bush’s defeat is not just a loss for one radical congresswoman. It is a rejection of the entire Squad’s toxic ideology. The American people are waking up and choosing sanity over socialism, strength over weakness, and America First over America Last.
More Squad members are on the ballot soon. The trend is clear: radicalism is losing, and the America First movement is winning.
