Oh look, it’s another round of Anonymous Sources Theater, starring the usual suspects over at MS NOW — formerly MSNBC, now just a rebrand with even less credibility but somehow more desperation. And what’s the crisis this time? Apparently, President Trump is allegedly gearing up to toss FBI Director Kash Patel out the door. According to these bastions of journalistic integrity, the president and his team are just so overwhelmed by a few unflattering headlines that they’re ready to fire the guy.
MS NOW EXCLUSIVE:
“President Trump is considering removing Kash Patel as FBI director in the coming months, as he and his top aides have grown increasingly frustrated by the unflattering headlines Patel has recently generated.”https://t.co/C6d4N2WVgo— MS NOW (@MSNOWNews) November 25, 2025
Right. Because that definitely sounds like Trump — famously allergic to media drama and knee-jerk reactions.
Here’s the thing: the story was so flimsy, so disconnected from reality, that even reading it out loud got a laugh in the Oval Office. That’s according to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who — instead of wasting time drafting a 12-paragraph statement that no one outside the Beltway would read — simply posted a smiling, thumbs-up photo of Trump and Patel standing shoulder to shoulder. So much for the “he’s on his way out” narrative.
But of course, these media outlets don’t let a good made-up story go to waste. No, they double down. CNN got in on the action too, pushing the alleged idea that there’s a Cabinet shake-up brewing as Trump hits the one-year mark of his second term. That’s right — they’re not just imagining exits anymore, they’re practically fan-fictioning entire agency overhauls.
Karoline Leavitt wasn’t having it. She slammed CNN’s breathless coverage with a cold dose of reality: “100% Fake News,” she said, noting that the network had been told repeatedly that the story was false — and ran it anyway. Because why bother with facts when you’ve got declining ratings and an anti-Trump base to appease?
This story is 100% Fake News, and the White House repeatedly told this to CNN in the strongest possible terms. Yet they still wrote the story because their ratings are dying so they thrive off drama that does not exist.

It’s like watching a toddler throw a tantrum in the cereal aisle — loud, messy, and completely detached from reality. CNN and MS NOW aren’t reporting news; they’re performing for clicks, cobbling together half-baked gossip from “multiple people familiar with discussions,” which we all know translates roughly to “the guy who overheard a conversation in the hallway and told his cousin who works at a coffee shop.”
And here’s where it gets even more entertaining — Trump didn’t just laugh it off. He turned the whole thing into a PR win. A big grin. A thumbs up. A viral photo that made the entire story evaporate faster than CNN’s credibility. It’s almost cruel how effortlessly the administration undercuts this nonsense.
This story is completely made up.
In fact, when this Fake News published, I was in the Oval Office, where President Trump was meeting with his law enforcement team, including FBI Director Kash Patel.
I read the headline to the President and he laughed. He said: “What? That’s… https://t.co/qbsy0nW2Bg pic.twitter.com/aNL5Qw9MA8

Let’s not pretend this is new. Since day one, the legacy media has been trying to manufacture chaos in Trump’s orbit. Every time they run out of real controversy, they whip up imaginary ones. Remember “Russian collusion”? Or “storming the nuclear codes”? Now it’s “Trump’s Cabinet is secretly falling apart,” and “Kash Patel is being shown the door.” Spoiler: none of it has been true. But hey, anything to distract from inflation, open borders, or the latest round of international embarrassments under the last administration.
At some point, you’d think they’d learn. But they won’t. Because this isn’t about journalism — it’s about narrative control. It’s about feeding an audience that wants to believe Trump’s presidency is one scandal away from collapse, even as the economy rebounds, border security tightens, and actual results keep stacking up.
Meanwhile, Trump keeps doing what he does best — running circles around the press, calling out their games, and letting the facts (and the thumbs-up photos) speak for themselves.
So yeah, it’s a day that ends in “y.” Which means somewhere out there, an editor at MS NOW is still crying into their latte because Kash Patel dared to smile next to the President… and ruined their latest headline fantasy.
