John,
Over last weekend, Donald Trump nominated Kash Patel to be FBI Director.
And while you might have thought Matt Gaetz, Tulsi Gabbard, or Pete Hegseth were the most inflammatory nominees Trump could pick, I promise you Kash Patel raises even the same or greater alarm bells.
For starters, he’s spread dangerous, false conspiracy theories about a “deep state” that is unfairly persecuting MAGA world. And he’s calling for a “comprehensive housecleaning” of professionals at the the Justice Department, and said he’ll close down the FBI headquarters and turn it into a “museum of the deep state” on his first day.
While I served on the House Intelligence Committee, Kash Patel was a major part of the efforts to sabotage a thorough investigation of Russia’s involvement in the 2016 election — and for his work, he was rewarded with a post in the Trump Administration.
Strangest of all, John — but not surprising, given his close allegiances with Donald Trump: Kash Patel wrote a children’s book titled The Plot Against the King — featuring characters such as “King Donald,” “Hillary Queenton,” and one particular “shifty knight.” Who, you guessed it, is supposed to be me, Adam Schiff.
Literally repackaging the Big Lie about the 2020 election into a children’s book.
There’s more — Kash Patel hosted a children’s event to promote his new book, which featured a castle, a catapult, and watermelons adorned with, you guessed it, my face.
If it sounds ridiculous. It is. But it also demonstrates how completely disastrous Kash Patel would be as director of the FBI. He should stick to his strengths and remain an internet troll.
Again, this is someone who has called for the arrest of journalists, politicians, and anyone who stands up to Donald Trump. There’s no end to the damage he could cause.
