On the day of the president Donald TrumpThe opening, Cash Patel, which was He was nominated for the service As the next FBI director, he appeared in front of Bahr Maga The hats in Washington, DC, the capital of One Arena and prompted his respect for law enforcement. Patel said: “Our police officers, and our disobedience, our federal agents are among the greatest warriors that God has ever created.” “We will put them first because they have our backs and now we will have your backs.”
Hours later, from the Oval Office, Trump has signed an amazing executive Pardon granted For more than fifteen hundred people convicted of crimes linked to violent Capitol riots four years ago. At least six hundred of those who received amnesty was condemned by attacking or resisting police officers. Among them are individuals such as David Nicholas Dempsey, who, according to the prosecutors, attacked officers “his hands, feet, flag columns, crutches, pepper spray, broken furniture pieces, and anything else he can get on his hands”, and from, even Trump’s amnesty, He was serving a twenty -year prison sentence.
The executive was not completely surprising. Trump has repeatedly promised to pardon rioters on January 6, who was referring to him as “hostages” for several years. But it was always mysterious about the possible form of amnesty, or whether it would be applied to the most violent perpetrators. What came as a shock, even for some of its Republican allies, was the massive size of the system.
Last week, Senator Dick Dorbin, who is a member of the Senate Judicial Committee, met with Patel and asked him to explain how he pushed Trump’s amnesty with his plans to operate the best law enforcement agency in America. According to two floors, Patel said he would have to manage the question “above the leadership” before he can say anything that will be in the general registry. Later, speaking from the Senate Hall, Durbin expressed “grave concerns” about Batil’s fitness to lead the FBI, describing him as “a strong political loyalty, has repeatedly repeated false conspiracy theories and threatened revenge on those who personally and politically failed.”
In a different era, this was a kind of disgusting evaluation that the cabinet candidate would spend a long time trying to refuse. In the assertion session on Thursday, Battle, the candidate who is compatible with his most compatible responsibilities with Trump’s agenda, will deviate and reduce and disguise. But for Batille, the qualities that Durbin – the amazing defendant, the fluency in marginal novels, and the commitment to some of the policy that boasts publicly – are not falling. They are its main origins.
In the late thirties of Patel, after he worked as a public lawyer in Miami and then as a lawyer in the trial of the Ministry of Justice, he obtained a job as an employee in Hill in the Divin Nunes office, who was then the Supreme Republican Republican actor in the Intelligence Committee in the House of Representatives. In its new role, Patel has become a fundamental role in helping to formulate the response of the Republican Party, which aims to discredit investigations into Suspected Between Trump and Russia. For Batille and his colleagues, conspiracy theories that come out of the extreme right provided an enormous opportunity. If Pattel marries the narrative imagination that has woven the investigation of the Trump team as a lawsuit for the tramp itself, he can obtain Trump’s ear – and to formulate a successful and profitable public figure.
In fact, it rapidly rose, as it fell with a number of national security roles. In recent months of the Trump administration, the Chief of Staff of the Defense Minister, Chargé d’Affaires, has become Christopher C Miller. According to Washington mailhe Go to the battle With the intelligence community, including the CIA and the National Security Agency, and with Trump’s support, the matter was ended as the Acting Director of the CIA
After the first failed show of Trump for a second term, and the events of January 6, 2021, when thousands of angry supporters defeated by electoral conspiracies, some of which are armed with improvised weapons, law enforcement, and law space, I stormed the CapitolFor some, it appears, like the logical end point for this type of soldier that Patel represented-a study of a situation in how the right-wing figures that harness the cultural power of conspiracy theories to secure personal power, at the end, are consumed by the fire that turned a fire from its manufacture. The riots had shown the violent northern Maga The movement, and it was described as rebellion. The former president left the capital to an outcast; He and his allies rushed to move away from the ugliness of what happened. Trump described the riots as a “ugly attack” and said he was “angry at violence, chaos and chaos.” Meanwhile, with the accumulation of fists on the sixth of January, Patel faced an investigation by the Ministry of Justice if he had offended secret information. (Patel described the reporting of the investigation, which has never led to criminal charges, as a “bright liar”.
After that, in the middle of the road until 2021, almost at the same time, the chosen committee was formed to investigate the sixth January attack on the American Capitol, which is a recitation of sympathy for the riots on January 6, who started on its way from the right -wing signs of the extreme ocean . At that point, many of the most trial criminals were isolated from riots in their own unit in the Capital Prison, which has become known by some of its residents as the Patriot wing.
I spent more than a year reports on the national wing, and I saw it becomes sitter For many of the same grievances that brought prisoners to Capitol in the first place. I saw how, with the help of activists, men were able to create a media process that enabled them to obtain their messages for sympathizers. What started the allegations of the prisoners about ill -treatment at the hands of prison officials, quickly turned into a complete imagination of political persecution that spread to the media in support of the race, capturing momentum, and launched Trump’s legal problems. The term “political prisoner” began to spread. Infowars ran the headlines such as “GULAAGARICAN: Political Prisoners who were tortured in the Capital Prison occupied by the enemy.” A supporter cartoonist has published a photo showing huge men in Trump Mirch, and they are having a prison cell together. These accounts helped stimulate a new movement of the so -called activists on January 6, who wrote letters to prisoners and collected money for their legal defenses. Trump’s most powerful supporters in Congress at the time –Matt Gitzand Margori Taylor GreenPaul Gusar, and Louie Gothamrt – they performed the narration and obtained the work that gives him legitimacy.
This new movement specifically compatible with the work of Patel last – and to some extent, its own brush with the Ministry of Justice – and chose it with the taste. In September, he participated in the launch of a new web site, fought with Cash; Special plan from K $ H Apparel; And Kash Patel Legal Embense Trust, which he described as “a designer box to give those who are summarized by fake media and major technology voice.” The “Archived” page is the distinguished profession of Pattel “as a public prosecutor, lawyer and national security specialist”, who has removed “senior leaders” in ISIS Al -Qaeda and revealed “the trick of collusion in Russia in the deep state against President Trump.” He promised that the fund donations “will help send the broken earthquakes through the fake media and the deep state.”
In the next few years, Patel flirted with another conspiracy theory related to January 6, which was in full swing by early 2022. “January 6. [was] Patel wrote in a social publication in fact last year. “The cowards in the uniform are exposed, they broke the leadership chain, and violated the law.” The “Fedsrection” conspiracy arose on speculation that a man named Ray Eps – who was captured in video clips on January 6, was encouraging rioters to enter the Capitol – a secret federal agent who merged himself into the crowd with the aim of violence. These stories were exposed about EPPS again and again, including EPPS itself and the January 6 selection committee. But the idea that the hordes of the secret agents incited the riot of the Capitol gained traction and nurtured the right hostile actions towards the office. In August 2022, after federal agents I raided Mar Lago As part of their investigation into the potential ill -treatment of the presidential documents classified, Trump’s supporter of the nail pistol tried to storm the FBI, Ohio.
In his book, “Governmental Gangsmen”, published in 2023, Patel paints the Ministry of Justice and the Federal Investigation Office as a misery of corruption. He writes that the office “seriously offended its strength” and has become installed on the conduct of “charming ideological hunting” against “political opponents of the ruling class.” One of the book’s accessories features a list of sixty people suspected of Patel to be members of the “Deep State”. Among them are nearly ten current and former employees at the FBI, including outgoing director, Christopher Ray, who was originally appointed by Trump. Through the Kash Foundation Foundation, it was supported by FBI agents now suspended Stephen Fried and Jarret Obwell, who, according to a report of three hundred and fifty pages by Democrats in the House Supendables “indicated to themselves as” informants “while trafficking in the” disturbing “conspiracy theories about the elections of 2020 and 6 January. (In an interview with Roger Stone last year, Patel described a friend as a “brave warrior” and “a great agent for the Federal Investigation Office”, and suggested that he be installed at the level of a great leadership within the FBI)
By the time Trump launched his 2024 campaign, Patel’s participation with J6ers has become a process. It has produced a path titled “JUSTICE For All”, which appeared J6 Prison-including the defendants who assaulted the police during the riot of the Capitol-“The Star-Spangled Banner and Trump’s voice reads loyalty. It was one of the songs that opened the first campaign in Trump, in Waku, Texas. Footage of riots played on a screen behind him.
At this stage, Patel has successfully built a personal brand for itself inside the sprawling parties Maga Media environmental system. He got a seat at the Trump Media & Technology Group, the company that manages the social truth. (Since the beginning of the website, more than ten thousand publications were published). He also in partnership with Revere Payments, which describes itself as a company that promotes culture “the highest culture of culture”, and Patriot Mobile, “the only Christian wireless provider in America”. The diet complementing line called Warrior Essentials has announced, and the followers promised that its products would help “unlike VAXX”. He also sold a series of books for children, about a besieged king named Donald, the merchant who faces thorny plans designed to calm his strength, including the dragon whose first letters appeared his bids to pay attention to the Qanon movement: he defended his followers, and his first letters appeared. Several times on a high -level Qanon podcast, as a member of the Truth Social Board. According to what was reported, he suggested Merging Qanon photos on the platform.
