Kash Patel’s Assata Shakur Rant Backfires: X Users Shred FBI Boss for Hypocrisy and Spinelessness

Kash Patel’s Assata Shakur Rant Backfires: X Users Shred FBI Boss for Hypocrisy and Spinelessness

By Palmetto Star | September 30, 2025

In a tone-deaf X post that’s since been ratioed into oblivion, FBI Director Kash Patel tried to school the world on why no one should mourn the passing of Assata Shakur, the Black Panther icon and godmother to Tupac Shakur who died peacefully in Cuba at 78 last week.
Patel, referring to her dismissively by her birth name Joanne Chesimard, blasted tributes from groups like the Democratic Socialists of America and the Chicago Teachers Union, calling her a “terrorist” who “murdered New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster in cold blood” before fleeing to Cuba.
“Mourning her is spitting on the badge and the blood of every cop who gave their life in service,” he fumed, slapping an old FBI “Most Wanted Terrorist” poster alongside his rant.But X wasn’t having it. The backlash erupted like a COINTELPRO fever dream, with users across the Black Twitter diaspora and beyond dragging Patel for his blatant hypocrisy, gutless bootlicking, and selective “tough on crime” schtick. “Assata fed children who needed meals with the Black Panthers while Kash Patel protects pedophiles because they have money… you and Assata are not the same, she stood on PRINCIPLES,” fired off @2RAW4TVRADIO
, racking up thousands of views and likes in hours.
The post contrasted Shakur’s revolutionary courage—fighting state oppression with unyielding integrity and fearlessness—with Patel’s alleged willingness to compromise for power, traits he sorely lacks.The hypocrisy cuts deeper when you zoom out. Patel, a Trump appointee who’s dodged scrutiny over his own ties to questionable figures, has been accused of shielding pink power (read: white supremacist) pedophiles in elite circles, from Epstein island holdouts to the underbelly of MAGA money.
“Agreed! It’s also like keeping the Epstein files locked away from the public. It’s spitting in the faces of the victims to protect child r**ist and trafficking. Release the Epstein files Kash,” one viral reply sneered, echoing a chorus of calls outing his selective justice.
How does a guy who won’t touch real monsters dare lecture on mourning a woman who symbolized resistance against the very system he now runs?And the gall doesn’t stop there. Users roasted Patel for branding Shakur a terrorist while allegedly greenlighting threats against Black and progressive voices. “Not only did ISRAEL KILL CHARLIE KIRK, Benjamin Netanyahu is a serial killer targeting American influencers… who is the next American influencer that will be targeted by Netanyahu?” blasted @2RAW4TVRADIO
in a follow-up, accusing Patel of protecting the actual terrorists behind high-profile hits while fixating on a 50-year-old case.
“He’s a fraud. He not only disrespected a Black American hero, he lets foreign countries come to America and kill influencers, for a paycheck,” X Users slammed Patel as an FBI lackey too scared of getting fired to chase hard targets.
The name game drew fire too—Patel smugly deadnames Shakur as “Joanne Chesimard” to strip her revolutionary mantle, yet doubters point out he might not even be rocking his birth name in full, a hypocritical flex from a man curating his own “Kash” persona for clout.
“Funny how Kash Patel can find the Soul sisters file after all these years but he can’t find the Jeffrey Epstein files,” quipped @DarkHandsome59
, highlighting the new FBI’s priorities: harassing elderly freedom fighters in exile while fumbling live-wire threats at home.
In the end, Shakur towers over Patel in every metric—integrity forged in Panther kitchens and prison breaks, principles that outlasted FBI bounties, courage that inspired generations from hip-hop anthems to classroom tributes. Patel? A meme-worthy sellout whose X takedown proves he’s no match for the queen he tried to bury.
