The FBI director recently fired one of his former far-right allies, Stephen Friend, after Friend appeared to accuse Patel of a cover-up in the D.C. pipe bomb probe.
FBI Director Kash Patel is learning the pitfalls of running an agency chock-full of conspiracy theorists like himself.
The director, who was seemingly nominated for the role primarily because of his sworn allegiance to Donald Trump and a habit of pushing MAGA conspiracy theories, has become the movement’s whipping boy ever since he assumed his position — largely over his failures to provide evidence supporting MAGA conspiracy theories.
Last week, this came to a head when Patel fired Stephen Friend, a far-right influencer, FBI agent and former Patel ally who gained fame among the MAGA faithful after being suspended from the agency under the Biden administration for reportedly sympathizing with Jan. 6 insurrectionists.
It’s not that they weren’t racist against Indians the whole time…
It’s that there was no push for it or format where it was discussed.
But with them taking so many college slots and H1-Bs, it’s only a matter of time till they get picked as a Boogeyman and/or scapegoat.
MAGA will play the “we tried to rise above and work together” followed almost immediately by “but there’s just no substitute for a white man”. Likely at that point full mask off and explict.
It’s plausible they try to take it back to only white landowners being allowed to vote, because that means they’ll keep winning.
That’s the thing he is racist, he has a story where the scary sting music comes in is when he brings up two muslim girls in a pool supply store, but he’s got his own groups to be against
I wonder if he’s going to keep up on it
