President Donald Trump’s appointee to be the next Director of the FBI has been confirmed by the U.S. Senate. Kash Patel won with no votes from Democrats and two RINO dissenters.
“Republican” Senators Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski voted against Patel’s confirmation, making the final vote a nail-biting 51-49.
Former Republican Leader Mitch McConnell was a question mark but voted in favor of Patel. Earlier in the day, McConnell announced his retirement; he will not seek reelection in 2026.
Patel has been a controversial appointment as far as Democrats and legacy media are concerned. He has vowed degrees of transparency that far exceed any of his predecessors, including promises to release the Epstein List as well as other potential “dirt” on politicians past and present.
MAGA celebrated on social media.

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.
