Trump's pick for FBI chief plans to release 'Diddy list', Epstein files as he reshapes agency's future
President-elect Donald Trump has announced Kash Patel as his nominee to lead the FBI, marking the beginning of a potentially radical era of change for the agency. The new FBI chief has made it clear that his priorities include releasing documents such as the infamous “Diddy List” and the files related to Jeffrey Epstein to the public. In a recent interview, Patel stressed that his goal is to restore Americans’ trust in federal institutions by exposing decades of alleged corruption and misconduct.
Speaking on the “Benny Johnson” podcast, Kash Patel stressed that the only way to restore trust in the nation’s largest law enforcement agency is by “giving the American people the truth.” He said fear of Trump and his transparency initiatives has always been the main threat to what he calls the “deep state.”
“What they fear is that Donald Trump is going to open up files like the Epstein list or the P. Diddy list,” Patel said. The term “Diddy list” refers to names of public figures linked to alleged parties hosted by rapper Diddy involving questionable conduct.

Reform and bold promises
As the new head of the FBI, Kash Patel has already proposed strong measures, such as closing the FBI headquarters in the iconic J. Edgar Hoover Building and dispersing employees across America. In an interview with the “Shawn Kelly Show” podcast, he said:
“I would close the Hoover Building on day one and reopen it as a deep state museum. I want agents out on the streets, chasing criminals.”
Despite the promises, experts say such a restructuring would face complex legal and bureaucratic challenges. Some say Patel’s ideas carry more political than practical weight, but they reflect the defiant tone the new FBI chief intends to strike.
Connection to Trump and challenges in the Senate
Kash Patel, a staunch ally of Trump and defender of the MAGA agenda, will face a Senate challenge to secure his confirmation as FBI director. His professed loyalty to the former president and his views on reforming the agency are points of contention. In his book “Gangsters in Government: The Deep State, Truth, and the Battle for Our Democracy,” Patel argued for decentralizing the FBI as a way to curb political influence.
Still, even with new leadership, the fate of the FBI and its headquarters remains uncertain. A proposal to move the building to Greenbelt, Maryland, is still under review but has already drawn criticism for potential conflicts of interest.
The “Diddy list” and the new era of the FBI
The release of the “Diddy List” and other sensitive files are part of Patel’s effort to expose what he sees as the excesses of the deep state. Such moves, he says, are essential to ensuring transparency and accountability, two pillars of Trump’s vision for his second term.
While bold promises like these draw headlines and support, the new FBI chief will have to balance his disruptive vision with the political and institutional realities of Washington.
