Dec 13, 2024, 10:27 PM
A recent government watchdog report has revealed that the FBI conducted surveillance on Kash Patel, who is poised to become the agency's new director. The report indicates that the FBI monitored Patel's phone records and emails starting in late 2017, during his involvement in investigating the agency's handling of the Russiagate inquiry. Patel, a close ally of former President Donald Trump, has publicly committed to reforming the FBI and holding accountable those he believes abused their power during the Russiagate investigation. The implications of this surveillance have raised concerns about the agency's practices and its future under Patel's leadership.
