Friend,
This Thursday, Kash Patel, Trump’s nominee for Director of the FBI, will have his committee hearing in the Senate. Kash Patel is one of Trump’s most dangerous nominees—he poses a real threat to our personal freedom, the freedom of the press, and anyone Trump deems an “enemy.”
Add your name to the petition urging the Senate to reject Kash Patel now! >>
An author of books for MAGA-aligned adults and children, Kash Patel has repeatedly reinforced the Big Lie about the 2020 election and demanded loyalty to Donald Trump. His book “Government Gangsters” also includes a long list of people he would like to see punished because of their “disloyalty.” That list includes Republicans who stood in the way of Trump overturning the 2020 election. Patel also urged the arrest of former Attorney General Merrick Garland.[1]
As the Director of the FBI, Patel would have the power to cause serious harm to those he or Trump deems enemies to their MAGA agenda. This could include anyone who attempts to resist their extremist priorities.
What’s more, he’s not qualified for a job of this magnitude. His resume is light on government service—his most notable position was serving as Chief of Staff to then Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller, a job he held for only two months. Even former Trump Attorney General William Barr has written, “Patel had virtually no experience that would qualify him to serve at the highest level of the world’s preeminent law enforcement agency.” [2]
Sign on to tell the Senate: vote no on Kash Patel! >>
We must protect our democracy from Patel’s threats and pursuit of retribution. We must demand a Director of the FBI who will uphold the law, not fight for Trump.
Thank you for your advocacy on this issue.
