Tarassis was the word once used to designate "hysteria" in the male over a century ago.

Now the word "hysteria," once used only for females, applies to both genders.

Ergo today, D/FBI Kashyap Pramod Vinod Patel is suffering through a severe state of hysteria, not tarassis.

Minor points, when you consider Ka$h's entire life is a tour de swamp: Who engraved the dipso director's bottles, how much did it cost, and - here we go - who paid for the booze and engraving?

Kash will leave office in the manner in which he came: a worm.

And to think, MAGA still thinks Trump has done a good job and that these are "the best people."

Because they'll believe anything and everything, they're told to believe.

FBI defends Kash Patel after report alleging he gifts custom whiskey bottles
www.theguardian.com

... The FBI said that agency director Kash Patel "followed all applicable ethical guidelines" after a report in the Atlantic alleged that he distributed customized bourbon whiskey bottles as gifts.

In an article published on Wednesday, the Atlantic described Patel as travelling with a stock of "personalized branded bourbon" that he allegedly hands out frequently to people around him. ...

Ben Williamson, the FBI's assistant director, said in a statement to the Guardian: "The Atlantic's premise is false and misleading. The bottles in question are part of a common practice in the FBI that started well over a decade ago, long before Director Patel arrived.

"Senior Bureau officials have long exchanged commemorative items in formal gift settings consistent with ethics rules. Director Patel has followed all applicable ethical guidelines and pays for any personal gift himself," the statement added. ...

- The FBI said that agency director Kash Patel "followed all applicable ethical guidelines"

So... that means he gave half the bottles to Drinky Pete?

@#10 ... Talk about having to write a report while staring down the barrel shotgun. ...

As I interpret that comment (please correct me if I am incorrect) ...

Yeah, major kudos to that Atlantic reporter for the follow-up article.

@#11 ... Leak hunt is go ...

If it was a leak, why is that leak wrong for Americans?

Asked differently, if this leak turns out to be correct, why did Americans need a leak to tell them about how those who have pledged to serve them may have, I'll say, stumbled in that oath?

#16 | Posted by LampLighter at 2026-05-08 11:15 PM

Ka$h should know all of this lawfare will rightfully end very differently than he invisions. Malicious Prosecution is still frowned upon I believe, or is that something else we can no longer count on?

Patel and Kegsbreath are the "Liquor Cabinet" within Trump's cabinet.

Ha! I do write lyrics, but I'd never include either of those two moron's names.

Or that of any other Trump administration official!

Beethoven, a fan of Gioachino Antonio Rossini, contributed music for an opera only once, something I attributed to the Immortal Maestro's vexing tinnitus.

Many times the musical composer and the librettist worked in tandem, but not always: Fidelio
