‘Take That’: Katt Williams Humiliates Kash Patel With One Savage Line — and the Embarrassment Spills Over to Trump’s Cabinet
Feb 11, 2026
Katt Williams didn’t ease into 2026 quietly. He kicked the year off by zeroing in on a high-profile target and refusing to blink.
During a recent set, the comedian shifted from playful crowd work to a sharp, calculated takedown of FBI Director Kash Patel. The turn was swift. One minute, the aud
ience was laughing along; the next, Williams had locked in on his subject with the kind of precision aimed at Trump’s cabinet and a savage visual prop to make sure no one missed the point.

‘Can’t Make This Up’: Katt Williams Breaks the Internet After Trump’s Off-the-Rails Comment Has Everyone Asking the Same Question
“You can really do anything right about now. I don’t give a f–k what’s wrong with you, you can f–king make it,” Williams says in a minute-long clip circulating on social media on Feb. 10. He viciously implied that anyone can work in Trump’s Cabinet even if you have vision problems.
Williams paused while the crowd laughed before finishing with one brutal line, “Like, even if you’re cross-eyed. You can make it. Did you understand?”
At that moment, a picture of Patel, taken during his Sept. 2025 testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee about Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, appeared on the big screen behind Williams onstage as the live audience burst out laughing.
The photo was up for only a short time, as Williams anticipates President Donald Trump’s tendency to be vindictive toward any critics who publicly mock or embarrass him or his Cabinet members, adding, “Take that down before I get a knock on my door.”
Turning his attention back to roasting Patel, Williams quipped, “Cross-eyed and the director of the FBI? You can’t even be an eyewitness.”

He added one final blow to Patel’s ego and job when he said, “He’s working on everybody’s case? He couldn’t work on my case, I’d be right in front of the judge, ‘Your honor, he looks distracted.'”
That segment was taken from Netflix’s new comedy special titled “Katt Williams: The Last Resort,” which debuted on Feb. 10. Social media users began weighing in on Williams’ savage bit aimed at Patel.
“[Katt] gives it left and right. One of the few mainstream comedians who is authentic! Love him,” one X account posted. A second person co-signed the jokes about Patel’s eyes by tweeting, “Finally someone said it out loud. Lmfao.”
Patel and his entire political party got viciously dragged in many of the replies, including one poster who expressed, “He’s so incompetent. Shame on Republicans for confirming him.”
A self-described Trump supporter agreed with the FBI leader taking verbal lashing and also threw Attorney General Pam Bondi under the bus, writing, “Ya’ll can have this one. Crucify Bondi while [you’re] at it, you won’t get any opposition from MAGA.”
“That means he’s good at cross-examining things,” someone on TikTok noted, jokingly about Patel.
Williams received praise on that app as well. A fan exclaimed, “And people called him crazy. He’s been absolutely correct the entire time!!!”
Patel has been a whipping boy for online trolls since getting confirmed to his post by the Senate in February 2025. Last May, the former public defender’s sit-down with Fox News host Bret Baier inspired countless jokes at Patel’s expense.

The interview was filmed in an empty gymnasium inside the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia. Patel and Baier were seated on large chairs. While the conversation was centered on the bureau, viewers kept their eyes on the Department of Justice official’s feet, so far from the ground.
Patel, who is reportedly between 5 feet 7 and 5 feet 9, looked noticeably smaller than Baier in the screenshot that spread across the internet, sparking memes clowning the ex-podcaster for dangling his legs like a young child.
Cracking jokes about Patel is on trend after the first year of the Pace University-educated lawyer heading up the FBI. He had company among those Williams ribbed in “The Last Resort.” Several public figures, including Trump, faced the wrath of Katt’s sharp comedic tongue.
