(DCNF)—Hoover Institution Senior Fellow Victor Davis Hanson predicted Tuesday on his show that the FBI will relocate its agents to “where crimes are committed.”
FBI Director Kash Patel announced Friday on Fox Business that the agency will move from its headquarters in Washington, D.C. and relocate its 1,500 employees. While discussing the move on “The Victor Davis Hanson Show,” co-host Jack Fowler and Hanson discussed a possible move to somewhere like Kansas City.
“I don’t know if they’re going to make the headquarters there or not. They were going to make it in Virginia, but I think they’re going to disperse FBI agents to where crimes are committed,” Hanson said. “I know that Washington is a dangerous city, but you don’t need 15,000 or 12,000 FBI agents in Washington.”
“Any Democrat-run city is — all they do in Washington is they just intermarry with media people, with permanent bureaucrats, with politicians, and they finagle and intrigue and whatever the existing power is, usually on the left, and they make the necessary adjustments. They’ve done this country great harm. They’re all sanctimonious,” Hanson added.
Prior to being confirmed as the FBI’s new director in February, Patel had been an outspoken critic of the weaponization of the surveillance state, calling for a “24/7 declassification office.” Patel previously advocated for “shutting down” the D.C. headquarters and moving agents in order to catch criminals instead.
Hanson went on to call out previous FBI officials, saying he believes they’ve “lied” under oath to committees, like former FBI Director Robert Mueller and former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.
“When I see Andrew McCabe start pontificating on TV, I say ‘You lied. You lied under oath.’ When I see James Comey pontificating, I think ‘Wow, you lied to the President of the United States. You lied under oath to the House Intelligence Committee by claiming the amnesia. When I see Robert Mueller around, you rarely do, and I thought ‘Wow, you must have lied. You knew what Fusion GPS was, or you had no business being the head general counsel,’” Hanson said.
“And Christopher Wray, why were you going after abortion protesters, parents at school board meetings? What was the whole point of that spectacular raid on Mar-a-Lago at the same time Joe Biden had taken classified materials for 30 years in three different to four different locations that were much less secure? He only came forward not because what you people said ‘He had a sense of duty.’ He did it because he’s appointed a special counsel to go after and torment Trump, and he was embarrassed people might find out that he’d done the same thing.”
Patel said that while the FBI has 38,000 agents when “fully manned,” an estimated 11,000 of them are being placed in the nation’s capital region. Patel has yet to release the exact location where the agents will be sent and where the new headquarters will be set up.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
