Steven HartzellHOST
No.
Steven HartzellHOST
My kids were like, "Dad, why don't we go to Pearl Harbor?"
NatGUEST
What?
Steven HartzellHOST
And I'm like, "'Cause I don't have like 15 grand-"
Steve SummersHOST
Anyway, I went to the zoo today, which, uh, that was pretty cool.
Steve SummersHOST
Uh, got to eat at a restaurant called The 604 over by the Pearl Harbor Memorial.
Steve SummersHOST
Uh, food was very good.
Steve SummersHOST
Had a great time, but, you know, I think I'm ready to go home.
Kanoa LeaheyHOST
What was it? So I asked them, you know, because when teams come out to Hawaii, especially when they don't come out very frequently...
Kanoa LeaheyHOST
You know, they want to live it up and do a little bit of the Hawaii experience and maybe go to a luau or go to Pearl Harbor or go on a great hike or something like that.
Kanoa LeaheyHOST
And so one of the texters asked Josh, you know, what do you do when you travel, like, say, to Vegas? He's like, well, we wanted to get them out of the hotel room, so we drove down the strip.
Kanoa LeaheyHOST
And I was like, oh, and then they kind of were in very sarcastic, but kind of funny fashion.
Loren PiretraHOST
It's like slop couldn't even deliver at this level.
Loren PiretraHOST
So it turns out the FBI's director's pressing national security business involved a taxpayer-funded VIP snorkel excursion at the Pearl Harbor Memorial.
Loren PiretraHOST
Patel also had to defend himself against accusations of doing keg stands and chugging drinks in Olympic locker rooms.
Loren PiretraHOST
I saw you guys see what I saw.

Senate Democrats yesterday grilled FBI Director Kash Patel at a Senate Judiciary Oversight hearing.

The party pressed Patel on his investigations into journalists, drinking with U.S. hockey players at the Olympics, and using taxpayer money to go on a VIP snorkel trip at the Pearl Harbor Memorial in Hawaii, among other issues.

The tension climaxed when the panel chair, Sen. Chuck Grassley , angrily asked Sen. Cory Booker to end his questioning of Patel, asking if he was ready to shut up.

Chris Marquette reports for Politico.

The subject arose during a fiery Senate Judiciary Committee hearing in which Patel clashed with Democrats over his firing of agents who participated in investigations of President Donald Trump and suggested that agents might be dispatched to the polls on Election Day amid Justice Department and White House concerns about voter fraud.
RobertHOST
The hours-long hearing featured the name-calling and bitingly personal exchanges that have come to define Patel's appearances on Capitol Hill, with Democrats characterizing the Trump appointee as unqualified, criticizing him for politically charged investigations into Trump's enemies, and highlighting travel that has included a trip to the Winter Olympics in Italy in which he partied with U.S. hockey players and a snorkeling excursion at the Pearl Harbor Memorial in Hawaii.
RobertHOST
He's an incompetent lackey.
RobertHOST
He's like an 18-year-old kid who wants to join a fraternity that he could never be a member of, doing keg stands and chugging with friends.
Kathy EmmonsHOST
Number two, FBI Director Kash Patel and Treasury Secretary Scott Besant testified before Congress on Tuesday.
Kathy EmmonsHOST
Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee pushed Patel on a number of incidents from his tenure as the head of the FBI, including agency investigations into journalists, his use of taxpayer funds for activities like a snorkel tour of the Pearl Harbor Memorial.
Kathy EmmonsHOST
And of course, we all remember the celebratory drinking with the U.S. Olympic hockey players after the gold medal.
Kathy EmmonsHOST
Patel said the coverage was incorrect.
Bryan MurphyHOST
We still visit Waikiki, even if we're staying on the west side in Ko'olina, we'll still make our way into Waikiki because there's honestly some things we just like doing there.
Bryan MurphyHOST
The other one is Pearl Harbor.
Bryan MurphyHOST
Pearl Harbor, it's special to me, honestly.
Bryan MurphyHOST
It's special to a lot of you, probably maybe to you.
Bryan MurphyHOST
Pearl Harbor is another one on the list I've seen that included on tourist traps.
Bryan MurphyHOST
And I honestly completely disagree with that.
Bryan MurphyHOST
A lot of tourists go there, obviously, but that's not why it's worth your time.
Bryan MurphyHOST
What happened there still matters today.
Alicia MenendezHOST
Just in the last few days, while in Louisiana to meet with law enforcement, he appeared at the governor's annual gator hunt.
Alicia MenendezHOST
In May, the AP reported that emails showed Patel's Hawaii trip at a field office last summer included a VIP snorkel at Pearl Harbor Memorial.
Alicia MenendezHOST
And how could we forget his visit to the Olympics this past winter, and his locker room hang with Team USA? Mary and Michael are back with me.
Alicia MenendezHOST
Michael, with so much to, to choose from, where do you think senators should start their line of questioning?
Mark HertlingGUEST
You know, Willie was talking about how serene the scene is there this morning.
Mark HertlingGUEST
You go to any place of terror or catastrophe, like the Pearl Harbor Memorial or the Gettysburg Battlefield, and today it's pastoral because we remember the things that happened there, the lives that were lost, and what the nation suffered.
Mark HertlingGUEST
And hopefully that will prevent us from being as divided as we are today, and maybe the 25th anniversary will pull us back together and make us unified again.
Mark HertlingGUEST
But that's a challenge.
