    Kash Patel Previously Admitted to 2 Alcohol-Related Arrests


    When Patel worked for the Miami-Dade County Public Defender's Office back in the day, he wrote a letter elaborating on a couple disclosures from his Florida Bar application, which related to his past arrests

    Patel wrote he was arrested for public intoxication in February 2001 when he was a junior
    at the University of Richmond. He said he was under 21 years of age at the time and had
    two drinks before getting booted from the crowd at a Richmond basketball game for "excessive"
    cheering. He said he paid a fine.

    Patel said in February/March 2005 -- when he was a law student at Pace University in New York --
    he went out celebrating with friends and had some drinks at local bars. He said they walked home
    from the bars and "in a gross deviation from appropriate conduct, we attempted to relieve our
    bladders while walking home." Patel said before he could piss, a police cruiser stopped the group
    and arrested them for public urination. He said he paid a fine.

    They need to polygraph his crooked ass and ask him if he has ignored Trump's corruption and gone after everyone on Trump's revenge list.

    That’ll inspire loyalty at the nations premier investigative law enforcement agency.

    Patel was a full-time paranoid conspiracy nut prior to his current gig. That's just who he is. He seems like the kind of guy who'd spend all his time worrying about all the imaginary plots against him that he concocts in his own imagination.

    The guy is probably drinks so much to self-medicate of all the crippling anxiety he invents for himself.

    I get politics, I get political alignment, but you still have to do your job and do it well.

    Who in their right mind would want a full-time paranoid conspiracy nut in any important government job, let alone leading the FBI? It is utterly a disgrace that he was nominated and then confirmed.

    Patel went snorkeling around the USS Arizona when he was in Hawaii and definitely not on a vacation.

    (Patel has nothing to do with the management of the memorial.)

    This makes me physically sick. It's indefensible. He did it because this administration allows this kind of vulgarity.

    To be fair, that's the least of my concerns about Patel. The dude is so subservient to Trump it's disgusting. He is a liar, a Trump loyalist, conspiracy theorist, drunk, and loyal little bootlicker that has turned the FBI into nothing but a tool for protecting and defending Trump, and seeking retribution against anyone who refuses not to be part of that mission. Every time he is questioned by Congress, about Epstein, retribution firings, his drinking, or anything else, he skirts the questions asked, deflects onto someone else, and refuses to answer with a yes or no. To make him even more annoying, he looks like a little bug eyed creep, and sounds like he talks with clothespins on his nose.
