J Edgar Boozer posts "vindication" video with a song by Axl Rose, who "is not shy about his disdain for Donald Trump."

Patel, 46, shared a bizarre video on X on Saturday in which he boasts of his accomplishments over the last year as President Donald Trump’s FBI director.

The video consists of a montage of FBI B-roll footage, audio clips of Patel speaking during press briefings, and news reels set to “You Could Be Mine” by Guns N’ Roses—a band whose leader, Axl Rose, is not shy about his disdain for Donald Trump.

“The FBI delivered the safest America under President Trump’s leadership in the history of our country,” Patel says in the opening seconds of the self-congratulatory hype video.

In the two-minute-and-28-second video, Patel is seen firing a weapon at a shooting range, addressing the press in an outdoor speech, and walking around wearing sunglasses and camouflage.

Also, Axl is a very progressive guy these days and would tell Kash Patel to go F himself.
