CRY HARDER LIBS: FBI Just Got A Co-Deputy Director… This Pick Is Awesome

He’s a guy who helped lead the charge in fighting Biden’s agenda every step of the way, exposing much of their anti-Constitutional corruption in court… who better to help set the FBI back on its feet?

Never before has the FBI had two co-deputy directors. Then again, never before has it had to rebuild trust in an agency that had been weaponized against a sitting president.

Before Trump announced his choice of Pam Bondi as his AG pick, and we were still in the speculation and wish list stage, there was one name high on the short list of yours truly, and that was the guy from Missouri who, along with counterparts like Paxton, had been a continual thorn in the side of the Biden administration.

“I am proud to announce I have accepted the role of Co-Deputy Director of the FBI,” Bailey posted on X. “I extend my thanks to @POTUS and @AGPamBondi for the opportunity to serve in the mission to Make America Safe Again. I will protect America and uphold the Constitution.”

“The FBI, as the leading investigative body of the federal government under the Department of Justice, will always bring the greatest talent this country has to offer in order to accomplish the goals set forth when an overwhelming majority of American people elected President Donald J. Trump again. Andrew Bailey will be an integral part of this important mission and I look forward continued fight to save America together,” FBI Director Kash Patel said Monday evening. — ABC

For anyone not already familiar with him, or who had forgotten what he had done, here’s a best-of collection that I had AI go fetch for our readers as a little taste of the kind of guy we’re getting in this role.

• Missouri v. Biden (First Amendment Censorship): Bailey led a landmark lawsuit alleging the Biden administration coerced social media companies to suppress conservative viewpoints, citing over 1,400 facts of collusion with Big Tech. The case reached the U.S. Supreme Court, with a lower court granting an injunction to block federal officials from violating First Amendment rights.
• Biden’s Student Loan Forgiveness Plan (SAVE Plan): Bailey filed a lawsuit with a seven-state coalition against Biden’s “SAVE” plan, arguing it unconstitutionally attempted to cancel student loan debt without congressional approval, costing an estimated $475 billion. The Supreme Court previously ruled in Bailey’s favor on a similar challenge.
• Border Wall Funding: Bailey secured a court order forcing the Biden administration to use $1.4 billion in congressionally appropriated funds to construct a southern border wall, arguing Biden failed to fulfill constitutionally mandated duties.
• WOTUS Rule Challenge: Bailey filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration’s Waters of the United States (WOTUS) rule, claiming it overreached federal authority and infringed on state sovereignty.
• Executive Order 14019 (Voting Access): Bailey challenged Biden’s executive order aimed at expanding voting access, arguing it violated the 10th Amendment, Separation of Powers, Elections Clauses, and the Administrative Procedures Act by overstepping federal authority in state elections.
• Planned Parenthood Lawsuit: Bailey sued Planned Parenthood, accusing the organization of trafficking minors across state lines for abortions, using a Project Veritas video as evidence (though the video was criticized as misleading).
• Media Matters Investigation: Bailey opened a fraud investigation into Media Matters for America, alleging the organization misrepresented ad placements on Twitter next to pro-Nazi content, targeting Biden administration-aligned entities.
• Transgender Healthcare Restrictions: Bailey issued an emergency rule requiring healthcare providers to screen individuals before providing gender-affirming care, indirectly challenging Biden administration policies supporting transgender rights.
• Abortion Referendum Cost Dispute: Bailey refused to approve state Auditor Scott Fitzpatrick’s cost estimate for an abortion referendum, prompting a legal battle that delayed signature collection, seen as opposition to Biden’s pro-abortion rights stance.
• Trump Gag Order Lawsuit: Bailey filed a lawsuit against New York in the U.S. Supreme Court to stay a gag order and sentencing in Trump’s criminal case, arguing it interfered with Missouri citizens’ election-related information access. The suit was rejected.

He fought Biden on 2A issues, opposed school mask mandates, fought to keep drag shows out of schools, questioned Biden’s mental fitness and implications on validity of laws and directives bearing his signature. and fought Biden’s open border policy at every turn.

Is he the real deal? You could say so. He defends free speech against federal overreach, fought to keep the Executive Branch from slipping its leash and waffle-stomping the Constution, upheld 2A rights, fought the Progressive Mind Virus, while defending State soverignty and border security.

So he’s put his money where his mouth is on defending the Constitution, even against the big dogs in Silicone Valley, who have a lot of tools at their disposal to throw him under the bus.
