During a Senate hearing to review the FBI’s FY2026 budget request, Director Kash Patel was forced to admit that, despite the law requiring it, he had no such request ready to review.
This surprising development came during an awkward back-and-forth with Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), the ranking Democrat and Vice Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, which oversees and approves budget requests.
Senator Murray reminded the FBI Director that the budget request was legally required “last week,” and after the director responded, she surprisedly added, “And your answer is you just understand you’re not going to follow the law?”
So then shouldnt any effective economic protest/sabotage be specifically targeting thise oligarchs and not the broad general populace?
There’s no way to avoid the latter for large scale protests. Strikes are the most effective form of protest known to humanity and obviously cause some disruption. But on top of that, they could target oligarchs, say, by blockading their mansions.
