Friend,
Who is Kash Patel?
Trump’s nominee to serve as FBI Director may seem like a relative unknown to much of the public, but Patel’s nomination is sounding alarm bells for Democrats and Republicans alike.
Sign our petition to the Senate urging them to reject Patel’s nomination. >>
Kash Patel isn’t just unqualified – he’s a threat. His career has been defined by loyalty to Trump, conspiracy theories, and a willingness to do whatever it takes to protect his boss, no matter the cost to our democracy.
Even Trump’s former Attorney General, Bill Barr, put his foot down when Trump tried to make Patel the second-in-command at the FBI during his first term. Barr blocked the move, saying, “Over my dead body.”
Patel’s record speaks volumes. He’s attacked the FBI and intelligence agencies for years, pushing baseless “deep state” conspiracy theories to undermine the agencies’ credibility. When Trump mishandled classified documents, Patel was right there spinning lies to shield him from accountability. [1]
Patel’s current agenda goes even further. He has openly stated his intention to use the FBI to investigate and intimidate journalists he views as adversaries. This is Trump’s vision for the bureau under Patel’s leadership: a weapon to silence the free press and punish those who dare to investigate or report the truth.
If Patel is confirmed, here’s what’s at stake:
- Independent journalists could face government retaliation for reporting the truth.
- Whistleblowers and agents who speak out could be silenced.
- The FBI’s independence would be destroyed, turning it into Trump’s personal weapon.
This is not leadership. It’s authoritarianism.
Add your name to the petition now to stop Patel’s dangerous nomination. >>
The Senate must reject Kash Patel’s nomination. This isn’t just about one man – it’s about whether we allow the FBI to become a political tool for Trump’s vendettas.
Your voice matters. By signing this petition, you’ll join thousands of others demanding that the Senate take a stand to protect the FBI’s integrity – and our democracy.
Sign the petition today to stop Patel. >>
Thank you for speaking out,
People For the American Way
