The important thing is does Kash Patel's girlfriend still have her FBI Gulfstream and accompanying SWAT team? Lets think about what matters. Are our millions of taxpayer dollars keeping Kash Patel's girlfriend comfortable? And are we making sure Kash Patel has an ample supply of top shelf liquor? This is Republican government. These things matter.

"On multiple occasions in the past year, members of his security detail had difficulty waking Patel because he was seemingly intoxicated, according to information supplied to Justice Department and White House officials. A request for “breaching equipment”—normally used by SWAT and hostage-rescue teams to quickly gain entry into buildings—was made last year because Patel had been unreachable behind locked doors, according to multiple people familiar with the request."

Wow.

What a load of crap.



Hey
@S_Fitzpatrick
I was Kash Patel’s Sherpa on the transition. I spent nearly all day everyday with him for 3+ months and have been with him frequently since.

I have never seen the type of behavior that you’re describing from him.

Your anon sourced story is BS.

Oh and by the way, it was no pressure campaign that got Kash confirmed. He did his homework, studied every brief I wrote him (and I wrote them all personally). If I sent him material at say 2am, he would respond with questions by 3am. He was always available and never hard to reach. Ultimately, he addressed any concerns senators had. He studied the law enforcement issues in each of their states and came prepared with plans, ideas, and questions for addressing the unique law enforcement needs of each state. THAT is who Kash Patel is and it’s why the FBI has been so effective in the last year.

I’ve never once seen him over drink. Not once. You are spinning that narrative because you know POTUS doesn’t view that favorably, even admitted as much in your story.

And I’m not hard to find. Pretty obvious why you didn’t reach out to me for comment.

The Atlantic is such a trash publication. I hope they get sued into oblivion.

So the MAGA guy that supports Kash and got him the job wants to argue against multiple separate sources from the FBI and the White House? Yeah sure I’m convinced.

And we all thought it would be Kegsbreath to crash out drunk first. Seems like Keg Patel is the winner. How soon before anti-booze Trump gives Keg Patel the heave ho? I hope it’s sooner than later.

Homegirl is leaving Keg Patel once he’s fired. Who would blame her. Keg Patel carries himself like an over aged frat boy.

I have a family member who works at the Pentagon and Hegseth rolling in late and hungover is an open secret.

The poster who claims thrle Atlantic is making this up is hilarious, like thr Atlantic isn't an extremely legitimate investigative source. But sure, one MAGA friend on Twitter is more legit. For these sources to go to the Atlantic is a big deal, meaning there are serious national security concerns.

The FBI of course won't actually sue because it opens them to discovery.

Yeah, the big tell is this post is way too defensive. And he would respond to questions by 3 AM? GMAFB. That's trying WAY to hard. And BTW, we ALL saw him drink at the Olympics.

Yeah the whole "I've never seen him drink, not once" thing when Patel literally is in camera shotgunning beers (at an event he had no reason to be at).makes that post particularly ridiculous.

They published the story after this threat so they feel good about their sources. And BTW, they're not getting sued into oblivion. Patel obviously won't risk discovery.

He is obviously the try hard kid who really wants to be with the in crowd but will never get there. Unfortunately, he is a grown man in his forties still doing this which makes it even more sad.
