| [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A scathing 115-page report into the state of the FBI under Kash Patel has exposed turmoil and friction as agents turn on him and even Trump administration allies admit he is out of his depth. The bombshell report, written by an alliance of active-duty and retired agents who railed against former president Joe Biden's DEI policies, described the FBI as 'a rudderless ship' and 'all f**ked up' under Patel.
The damaging new dossier, obtained by the New York Post's Miranda Devine, detailed an embarrassing tantrum Patel allegedly threw after the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk. Patel reportedly flew into Provo, Utah, on September 11, the day after the killing, and refused to 'disembark from the plane without an FBI raid jacket.' He did not have his own and was so concerned about the optics that he pulled Salt Lake City FBI field agents from the investigation and ordered them to find him medium-sized outerwear. They eventually tracked down one he could wear but it belonged to a female agent. Patel was reportedly fuming when he received the jacket and erupted when he noticed 'two areas on the upper sleeves did not have Velcro patches attached', and still refused to step off the plane. Ultimately, 'members of an FBI SWAT Team took patches off their uniforms and ran those patches over' to stop Patel's outburst. Only then did he disembark the plane, the report claims. The alliance revealed sources who contributed to the report and openly support Trump described Patel as 'not very good' and noted he 'may be insecure.' Patel, a MAGA loyalist who once said he would shut down the FBI building on day one and accused the bureau of being part of the 'Deep State,' was appointed after a 51-49 vote and blistering battle between Democrats and Republicans. His appointment was just one in a series of controversial Trump nominees to make it through confirmation along party lines as Republicans had enough senators to confirm them without bipartisan support. Patel took over from Christopher Wray, who Trump also nominated during his first term before turning on him. The FBI boss started his career as a public defender. He later worked as a prosecutor in the Justice Department before serving as a senior aide to the House Intelligence Committee under then-chairman, Congressman Devin Nunes. He also worked as a staffer to the National Security Council during Trump's first term, in the office of the Director of National Intelligence and as chief of staff to the acting defense secretary. The FBI insiders appeared to support concerns that he 'lacks the requisite experience' or 'measured self-confidence' to thrive in a role as demanding and high-pressure as FBI director. They cited Patel's eagerness to address the public in the immediate aftermath of Kirk's assassination, which led him to incorrectly announce that investigators had someone in custody when they did not. Later, he 'did a disservice to the FBI by breaking with Bureau tradition and norms by taking credit for the good work by other agencies,' one agent revealed. Patel seemed to imply that the outcome of the investigation would not have been possible without his direct involvement. Both he and his deputy, Dan Bongino, faced scathing criticism in the report for their 'unfortunate obsession with social media.' One source advised the duo to 'stop talking, stop posing, and just be professional,' while another contributor said both men are 'spending too much time on social media and public relations' and 'are too often concerned with building their own personal resumes.' Many agents said they often heard news about internal operations via Patel and Bongino's X and social media platforms, rather than through the appropriate chains of command. Bongino faced further embarrassment in the report, described as 'something of a clown' who multiple agents said never should have been considered for the deputy role. It should have instead gone to a 'career FBI Special Agent' who would have offered more experience and knowledge alongside Patel's relative inexperience. One source recalled Bongino telling agents 'the truth is for chumps' during a visit to a field office, which left staff 'shocked, offended and appalled.' Despite the scathing nature of the report, the authors noted it 'was never intended to be a hit piece in any way, shape or form. 'But the anecdotal reporting from FBI personnel skewed 80/20 negative,' they added. The report did celebrate the fact that the FBI under Patel is making 'case work and threats the priority' in a noted shift away from the Biden-era DEI policies and politicization of the agency.
