FBI Director Kash Patel is scheduled to appear before senators Tuesday as he faces growing questions about his ability to lead the nation’s premier law enforcement agency.
Patel’s appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee was put on the books weeks ago, but comes at a delicate time for the director, who is a loyalist of President Trump but has no experience leading an organization like the FBI.
In just the past week, he has come under criticism for his social media posts and actions during the manhunt for the man who killed conservative activist Charlie Kirk. He’s also been sued by three former senior FBI officials who allege that he fired them for improper political reasons.
He’s an absolute muppet, but obviously Republicans aren’t going to give a shit
He could just sit there and do his raccoon in the headlights stare and never say a word and they’ll still say he’s great.
He’s not there to stop crim or terrorism, he’s there to wild the FBI as a weapon against anyone who doesn’t like trump.
