Former FBI Director and leaders file lawsuit that Kash Patel knowingly broke law when firing top officials
Kash Patel knowingly broke law when firing top officials, lawsuit alleges
The 69-page complaint was filed by former acting FBI Director Brian Driscoll and two other fired FBI leaders who claim they were the targets of “politically motivated retribution” and are seeking "to vindicate their constitutional and legal rights.”
The suit cites a series of alleged conversations involving Patel and other senior Trump advisers that, if true, show an FBI leadership consumed by the whims of a Trump White House that targeted employees solely for political reasons.
The insider accounts also tend to corroborate earlier reporting about claims that Patel misled the Senate in his January confirmation hearing when he insisted he would never fire or demote bureau staff for political reasons.
Wow. The evidence against him appears overwhelming. Open and shut case. I’m assuming the Supreme Court will dismiss the case for lacking standing.
SCOTUS: "Uh, i dunno, a 9th century english king did it, so yeah. That's why there's no, uh, standing here."
“Also, all us conservatives lied blatantly and egregiously during OUR confirmation hearings, with zero consequences, so it logically follows that Patel should also have a free pass for doing the same thing.”
SCOTUS just blocked a ban on trans kids using the school bathroom. You never can tell with this bunch.
