Why Did This J6-Hating Fed Just Get Appointed to a Key FBI Position? | The Mandate | 4/8/25

BlazeTV host Jill Savage and Blaze News editor

in chief Matthew Peterson discuss President Trump’s call for the House to pass

the Senate’s “big, beautiful bill”; countries rush to negotiate with the Trump

administration over Trump’s tariffs; and Chief Justice John Roberts’ decision

to pause a lower-court decision to return a man who was accused of being a

member of MS-13 and mistakenly deported. Blaze News investigative journalist

Steve Baker explains FBI Director Kash Patel’s appointment of Steve J. Jensen

to run the most powerful FBI field office, despite Jensen being a key figure in

the domestic terror push against January 6 protesters. Blaze Media senior

politics editor Christopher Bedford sits down with Daniel Turner, founder and

executive director of Power the Future, to discuss a massive loan from the U.S.

government to finance liquid natural gas abroad and the energy and AI race

against China. Finally, Jill and Matthew poll the audience on whether the

reports of measles outbreaks are being exaggerated to target RFK Jr., and

Matthew breaks down the divide between everyday Americans and D.C. elites and

how forgotten Americans in fly-over country have shouldered the burden of the

elites for far too long.
