Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Thursday, March 12, 2026

Just weeks after joining the U.S Men's Olympic hockey team in the locker room to celebrate their Gold Medal victory in Italy, FBI director Kash Patel is celebrating what he sees as another athletic milestone. "I'm thrilled to announce this historic seminar between the FBI and the UFC at Quantico," said Patel in a statement released today by the UFC. "This is a tremendous opportunity for our FBI agents to learn and train with some of the greatest athletes on earth " helping the world's premier law enforcement agency be even better prepared to protect the American people." The training will provide insight into UFC fighters' training methods as well as fighting techniques and tactics. It will take place at the FBI Special Agent Academy in Quantico on March 15 and 16 and is for "academy students as well as senior FBI staff from around the world."

This is part of Dummkopf Trumpf's "Russification" of Amerika.

Machoism, brutality, he-mans as icons, gladiator mentality, like in Chechnya.

The FBI Defensive Tactics (DT) course is excellent as it is. The FBI agents were taught enough to deal with KGB operatives, Hell's Angels, mobsters, etc. I was lucky to have attended their 40-hour DT course last century.

FBI agents don't need to waste their time with UFC macho stuff. Once every two months on the pistol range to keep up marksmanship and an annual DT refresher would suffice.

UFC fighters are one punch away from being homeless. This country is cooked.

So was Joe Rogaine last century until he caught his big break with the UFC after Fear Factor.

Now he's made an oligarchic fortune as a TV tumor and carnival barker.
