Kash Patel Stuns Joe Rogan With Explosive Inner Workings of the FBI

What the Bureau just uncovered about Fauci might finally bring him down for good.

Kash Patel didn’t waste time.

Sitting down with Joe Rogan, he opened with a jaw-dropping stat—one few Americans have ever heard.

During Trump’s first term, Patel ran counterterrorism operations for the White House and National Security Council.

In that role, he oversaw one of the most overlooked achievements of the administration.

“Hostages, we can talk about that forever too,” he began.

“Counterterrorism was a big portfolio, I ran it for the White House and National Security Council in the first Trump administration.”

Then came the number:

“We brought home—people don’t know this—President Trump in his first term, brought home and rescued over 50 hostages and detainees from around the world.”

He added, “That’s more than every president before him combined.”

Rogan, clearly taken aback, responded with a simple “Wow.”

Patel pointed out that few people even know these missions happened. Most weren’t headline news.

The stories of families reunited after high-risk rescues in Africa and the Middle East barely registered in the press.

“Did you hear about the successes of reuniting families with lost loved ones from Africa or the Middle East?” he asked.

He then described how Trump personally greenlit fearless operations, sending in elite forces to carry out rescues in hostile territories.

“These operations, that the president was courageous enough to green light to go into places like Afghanistan and do these hostage rescue ops, and use Seal Team Six and Delta,” he said.

From there, the conversation turned to an entirely different kind of crisis—one claiming tens of thousands of lives on American soil, fentanyl.

Patel didn’t hesitate to name the culprit: the Chinese Communist Party.

“So where’s the root of the problem? The CCP.”

This part is dark.

He explained how China plays a critical role in the fentanyl trade—not by making the drug itself, but by supplying the key chemical ingredients used to produce it.

“The fentanyl precursors, the stuff you need to make fentanyl comes from mainland China. That’s it.”

According to Patel, China has hundreds of companies manufacturing and exporting these chemicals around the world.

Most of them end up in Mexico, where cartels process the final product and smuggle it into the U.S.

“They’re like ‘we don’t make fentanyl.’ They’re right, they don’t. They just give you all the ingredients for it and ship it to Mexico.”

He added that the CCP even tried to clean up its image by announcing a ban on one specific precursor. But it was a bait-and-switch.

“To trick the world, they came out and said: ‘Hey, we’re going to not sell precursor X.’ The problem is, there’s 14 other precursors you can use to make fentanyl and they’re still shipping all of those.”

So while overdose deaths skyrocket, China keeps its hands clean—on paper.

The next revelation sounded like something out of a spy novel.

When Patel arrived at the FBI, he uncovered a hidden data room buried inside the Hoover Building—a room, he said, that had been concealed during the James Comey era.

“Me as the Director of the FBI—when I first got to the Bureau, found a room that Comey and others hid from the world in the Hoover Building, full of documents and computer hard drives that no one had ever seen or heard of.”

Rogan, stunned: “Whatttttt….”

Patel went on to describe a room locked away, access restricted, its existence hidden from nearly everyone.

“Locked the key and hid access, and just said, no one’s ever going to find this place.”

Rogan again: “Whaaaaaaat?!”

“Yeah, so my guys are going through that right now,” Patel said.

Rogan pressed him: “What’s in there?”

Patel’s answer: “A lot of stuff.”

Next on the docket was Biden’s border bloodbath.

Patel confirmed what many in the media have dismissed as a conspiracy theory.

Was the crisis at the southern border just incompetence, or something more calculated?

Rogan posed the question directly.

“Is this [open border] pure incompetence? Or is it malice?”

Patel didn’t leave room for interpretation.

“No, it’s intentional,”

He described a deliberate policy shift—one that welcomed millions of illegal entrants, despite the obvious risks.

“When you're going to let in, what is it, 9 million people? A lot of them are going to be criminals.”

The results were obvious to anyone watching.

Eventually, Epstein came up.

Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino had made headlines recently by saying definitively that Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide—something many Americans still question.

The public has long demanded answers: Where are the files? Is there any video? Are the elites protected?

Rogan pressed him.

Patel promised full transparency:

“We're going to give you everything that we can and people have to remember, we're not going to revictimize women,” he said.

“We're not going to put that shit back out there.”

Rogan asked the question on everyone’s mind: “Is there video from the island?”

Patel’s response was blunt.

“Not of what you want… If I had it, I’d be the first guy to bring this case hard and fast.”

He insisted he and his team reviewed every file they were legally allowed to access.

And what they found didn’t match the public’s theories.

“I got here 100 days ago. I can’t be held to account for 20 years of failures,” he said.

He acknowledged that if anything ever did exist, it may have been destroyed long ago.

But the most explosive moment of the interview came when Patel turned to Fauci.

This was a bombshell.

After years of delays, excuses, and missing records—his COVID-era phones and devices were finally found.

“We just had a great breakthrough this week on Fauci.”

The FBI had been investigating the origins of COVID.

But there was a problem: Fauci’s communications—the ones made during the most critical months of the pandemic—were nowhere to be found.

“And nobody had found it… till two days ago.”

Now, the original hard drives are in hand. And Patel says the mission is simple.

“Did that guy lie? Did he intentionally mislead the world and cause countless deaths?”

This isn’t about red vs. blue. It’s about what Fauci knew—and when.

“The best evidence is always the people’s evidence,” Patel added.

“We’re going to exploit those hard drives… We’re not done. We’re on the case.”

If there’s proof he manipulated the narrative, pushed bad data, or buried dissent—it’s likely sitting on those devices.

And this time, Patel says, the stonewalling is over.

Before wrapping, Patel offered one more surprise—but this time, it was good news.

According to current data, America is on track for its lowest murder rate in decades.

Rogan, surprised, asked how that was possible.

Patel pointed to a simple but powerful change in leadership philosophy.

“Let good cops be cops,” he said.

“I’m gonna let you, the agents, the police officers, the sheriffs, go out there and do the work you so badly want to do. And I’m gonna give you the resources you need to do it. And I’m gonna take away the politicization and weaponization… and that’s what we’ve done.”

Sometimes, the biggest breakthroughs don’t come from new ideas—but from letting people do the job they were trained to do.

This one took time to put together—we wanted to bring you a crucial story the mainstream media refuses to cover, and present it with the detail it deserved.
